When i last went to darbar sahib few years back I was confused to why names of indian army sikh soldiers were on the walls. I've been wondering for a few years and tried to find information about this but haven't been unable to so far.

Does anyone know what kinda writings is on these walls? and why the names of soldiers are there?

I personally find it disrespectful and inappropriate to have the names of Sikh soldiers who fought for non-sikh indian or british india colonialist regimes at our holiest site.

  Might delay Sikhs becoming a minority in Punjab for a few more years. Do these students actually study and work in a related field after their course or is it purely for immigration?

  Good website. Could they post the complete Sri Sarbloh Granth. I can’t find all of it online.

  Thanks for this. It combines the four approved sources (Guru Granth Sahib ji, Dasam Granth Sahib, Bhai Gurdas ji (both Vaar and Kabitt), and Bhai Nand Lal ji in one place. The English translation is the Sant Singh Khalsa and the Punjabi is the Principal Sahib Singh. These aren't that great, but at least they are better than some even worse ones floating around these days.
