Honestly I never saw or percieved the Sikh angle of the partition. Partly because we were never told by our history tellers. In my analysis of the partition and its effects I always counted Sikhs with the Hindus. But it seems no one ever asked and niether it was ever told what the sikhs felt about the partition and did they ever got thier part in the partition. But may be thats just my lack of information and undestanding. Diaz | 05.29.07 – 9:27 pm | #

The Sikhs were offered their separate homeland, just like the Muslims, by the British in 1947. Master Tara Singh, a prominent Sikh politician, was instrumental in turning the offer down, in consultation with Jawahar Lal Nehru. Sidhusaaheb | Homepage | 05.30.07 – 2:52 am | #

The pleasure is all mine! It would make me so happy if you do that.
I picked this as my user id. because this is what my friends at college used to call me, with affection, probably because I am also used to being polite to others, as far as possible. You are welcome to not use the last mode of address, if that is what you prefer. Sidhusaaheb | Homepage | 06.01.07 – 6:18 am | #

If it was given to you by your college buddies with affection, then I am also cool with it. I too like to treat others with respect and politeness, and Sidhusaheb is what you shall be addressed as Mannat Gill | 06.01.07 – 2:11 pm | #

Sat Sri Akal janaab. Thank you so much for the compliment! I would consider linking to your blogs, but it seems that all of these mainly have commercial content. I’ll do that gladly if you ever start writing a blog with content of a more personal nature and I hope you’ll let me know when you start writing one.
Once again, thanks for dropping by! Sidhusaaheb | Homepage | 06.07.07 – 11:38 am | #

You have done a great service by putting this article up for all of us to read. The past has to be preserved for the posterity to see. We will have a million questions to answer to the next generation. Articles like this will come in handy when the time comes. God bless you.. MP | Homepage | 06.18.07 – 5:16 pm | #
