I for one am glad the Afghan Sikhs came to the UK and Southall especially. They have ensured that most shops on Southall Broadway are Sikh owned otherwise the muslims would have taken it over completely. There are way too many halal restaurants on the broadway these days and it would have been far worse if the Afghan Sikhs never came over.

yes i agree  more sikhs the better it is    plus because of their different culture it adds some diversity to the community   another gd thing is that they have lots of kids   which is great 

there aren't that many halal kebab places on broadway, the few that are there have always been there   no?    southall has always had a sizable muslim community     i havent been in a while but near McDonalds theres a few a think

The amount of muslims has increased since the 90s when I was a kid. There are those old pakistani restaurants at the end of broadway near McDonalds but now a lot of these fake halal kfc, nandos knock offs next to the sikh owned shops.

i did notice a lot more of those non desi muslims   afghan type of looking ones.

but i think southall will always remain a mainly punjabi area. the kache lot will keep the punjabi population up. and because it right nxt to heathrow as well. 

problem is punjabi always leave the multicultural areas and settle into the goreh areas, and the goreh dnt want them there so they start moving out. the multicultural areas end up then becoming mainly paki and somali areas, and its in these areas that our gurdware are in.

Those fake halal  peri-peri chicken places are everywhere. 

But they  mostly remain empty (most likely because they are fronts for something else) , it artificially makes the muslim population look bigger than it is.

Well the way it works is first you have goreh living in an area, then the Indians (Sikhs and Hindus) move in, then finally the Pakistanis and other muslim groups.

There's nothing wrong in wanting to better yourself but I get annoyed when the <banned word filter activated> follow us around but I guess that's how the goreh feel about us.

Those Afghani Sikhs are closely tied with the Polish community running those "Polski Skleps "(being from Slough you should know what a Sklep is lol)

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
