Dear Brothers & Sisters ,
I have sent the following letter to Star One authorities as a mark of protest :
Another attempt by MAINSTREAM MEDIA of India to portray Sikhs as drunkard foolish men yesterday . On STAR ONE channel , last night on daily Soap ' PARI HOON MEIN ' from 9.00 PM to 9.30 PM , 23rd JULY two drunkard Sikh men were shown acting foolishly . The antics shown by both these guys were of the lowest possible grade . Why has STAR PLUS & its associate channels r the leaders in making fun of Sikhs always showing them as drunkards & mindless . I may tell u drinking is absolutely PROHIBTED in Sikhism
Figures below provided by Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, President of the Congress Party at the time of Indepedence.)
Out of 2125 Indians killed in the atrocities by the British, 1550 (73%) were Sikhs.Out of 2646 Indians deported for life to the Andaman Islands (where the British exiled political and hardened criminals) 2147 (80%) were Sikhs.Out of 127 Indians sent to the gallows, 92 (80%) were Sikhs.At Jalliawalla Bagh out of the 1302 men, women and children slaughtered, 799 (61%) were Sikhs.In the Indian Liberation Army, out of the 20,000 ranks and officers, 12,000 (60%) were Sikhs.Out of 121 persons executed during the freedom struggle, 73 (60%) were Sikhs. The Sikhs, who had thrown themselves, heart and soul, into the Indian independence struggle, were the third party with whom the British negotiated for the transfer of power.But they opted to be a part of India being true PATRIOTS . But what we have got in return Genocide of 1984 & DIRTY SIKH ( SICK ) JOKES
Does the channel authorities have any moral obligation towards this minority called Sikhs in India ?
