You stated that Punjab be renamed to Khalistan "for the time being". What happens after ..'the time being' is over? are some elements in the Sikh community going to start asking for an 'independent' Khalistan?. The future of the Sikh is to be an integral part of a resurgent India and not to go off in some other direction and form some 'third world' banana republic state.
The Sikh Nation determined its own future when it passed the resolution for Khalistan under the Sarbat Khalsa held in January 1986. The desire of the Sikh Nation to restore its sovereignty and independence was further reiterated with the passing of the declaration of the independence of Khalistan during the second Sarbat Khalsa in April 1986 which also saw the formation of the Panthic Committee.

Since you claim to know a little about Sikh history then you will obviously know the significance and importance of Sarbat Khalsa held on the premises of the Akal Takht at Amritsar, which both of these were.

Talking about being an 'integral part of India' is a pack of **** and is the only thing your corrupt and uneducated leaders can say. Id like to see your cabinet ministers go into rural Punjab, Khalistan or somewhere in Kashmir or Assam or Manipur etc without any high-level security detachment or entourage and say that these places are an "integral part of India" and lets see if their bodies are ever found afterwards.

Try going into rural Punjab and say - "Khalistan"- in front of those folks. Lets see if you can make it back to Surrey, BC.

I'd like to see you espouse Khalistan in India. Lets see if your @rse is ever repaired after the b0llocking you will get from the finest khalistanis pulled out of central jail for the express purpose. Then you will be as racially and ethnically and idealogically pure as them.

In the post above, you have amply demonstrated that once a terrorist, always a terrorist . You are best served being a lickspittle lackey boy in Surrey, Gunga din..you can only dream of khalistan. All your shaheeds lie rotting with INSAS bullets inside them. Sob sob.

Sarbat Khalsa??? man... thx for that, now I had to go through my history books... well, anyways, Sarbat Khalsa was a significant gathering in the past when the Gurus were around. When it turned poilitical, it lost its significance. And yea, Why are you asking mich about Sarbat Khalsa, heck, i'm a Sikh and even I didn't know about Sarbat Khalsa... point is, no one cares.... yep, you heard that right... no one cares....

funny thing is, I just asked my mother about Sarbat Khalsa... she told me the meaning of Sarbat (well being of all). But she's like, "I don't Know"when I asked her what is Sarbat Khalsa... lol.... so yea... mmm... back to my point, no one cares.... we already have enough of political crap going around....

India should be named Khalistan since it means land of the Pure.

Very ironical!

Rupe, listen to this (you probably have heard it anyways): YouTube - Akhri Manzil

He makes some very good points to let the world as it is. Pointless to keep dividing, Punjab into East-West, then into Khalistan.. pure pointless. So agree with you, Punjab remains Punjab and Punjabis remain Punjabis.

They must keep in mind that the people of west punjab had fought for pakistan and that there is no chance of them becoming part of khalistan in the future.

Nah.....Pakistan for years did everything it could to ensure that Khalistan come into being. I am sure that the so called Khalistan also included west Punjab.
