Hindus & Sikhs
by Gururaj on Nov 02, 2005 11:33 PM

Till this day ..I did not know that Sikhs and Hindu's were different..maybe its because of the fact that I was too young to realise the impact that 84 riots have had on sikhs. Kudos to the sikh community for still maintaining their sense of pride and mingling with the mainstream. Sikhs have been a major factor in India's growth especially in the rural areas. there is no place in India where u cannot find a pagdi and a "papaji ka dhaba" ..

Their sense of humour is best described by the sole originator of sardar jokes " Khushwant singh". their sense of finance can be judged by looking at our prime minister & his advisor montek singh ahluwalia. their sense of duty to community can be evaluated by visiting any Gurdwara.

I still cannot make out how can somebody do what is described here. i suppose the same logic applies to the other riots that have marred the country since independence.

It is time that we found a solution to all these troubles and heal the wounds of the injured and provide a new ray of hope to the next generation and form an India that is united, free & independent.
