Police officer Gagandeep Singh is a man from a minority saving another from a majority mob. We’ve allowed the binaries to blunt our perceptions to an extent where we need images like these to jolt us.
AAP lost last year’s election in Punjab from a winning position because an impression grew that it was taking a communal view of the state, stirring old angers, and embracing radicals. This is how I had explained that dramatic tunaround.
Sikh groups in Canada, USA and UK openly support a separate Sikh nation, and Indian security agencies believe they are trying to revive militancy in Punjab.
Even as India, Pakistan have seemed on the edge of war, their intelligence services have often sought to find space to de-escalate tensions and reduce risks for the two countries.
Speaking at 2nd Investor Connect, CM Vishnu Deo Sai says 'we have been able to attract a lot of investors.' The focus of the event was the steel sector.
In largest overhaul of military command in 5 decades, Field Marshal Asim Munir set to assume post of Chief of Defence Forces tomorrow, as Army claims primacy in Pakistan armed forces.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
The title of “kaur” is not something bestowed in to a person in the community. It is not like an award which can be taken back by one’s whims and fancies. Of course, Karenjit Kaur is not an ideal or fashionable name for a pornstar, but the name in her passport and other government records are Karenjit Kaur, of which the so called “guardians” of Sikhism have no control of.
Agreed! The Sikh establishment needs to focus on preservation of Sikh values among today’s youth and not get dragged into non-sensical issues like this or asking for exception for Sikh women wearing helmets. The community will be better served if these establishments follow the teachings of the Gurus and give equal status to women tha is righteously theirs. Sunny Leone has every right to use her legal name given by her parents and recorded on her documentation.
The author seems to have no understanding of how porn works, if she thinks a sexist song (and yes, Yo Yo is VERY sexist) is in any way less harmful than porn. But the complete and direct objectification of women in porn is way more dangerous than sexist music, because it feeds into pervert fantasies to a greater degree. That the author, who calls herself a feminist, chooses to eulogise someone profiting enormously by participating in the porn industry, is astounding. Does the Print have no standards?
She does not even wear a “Kada”. Most Sikhs practicing or not will wear a Kada a steel bangle which forms one of the five articles of faith for a Sikh, to connect themselves with their religion. I have even noticed non Sikh students from India who come to Canada have stared wearing a Kada to fit in with the local Sikh community. But Miss Leone has not even this simplest testament to the religion of her forefathers. Who are turning in their grave!
Sadly none of the the issues brought up by the author are only a part of Sikh culture, these issues exist in all cultures. The moral depravity of selling your physical body for financial gain is called prostitution. I understand in today’s “progressive” western culture pornography is scene by many foolish people as being empowering for women when actually it is the exact opposite; it is the re enforcing of women as merely sexual objects when they are capable of so much more. The pornography industry is exploitive, manipulative and harmful to all society especially women. If Miss Leone is proud of her career choice then why hide your real last name and use a Sikh woman’s name when you have no connection with your religion. The use of a true Sikh woman’s middle name to promote her life in pornography is vile and disgusting. The whole thing stinks of Indian agencies working to discredit the Sikh identity, which it has been doing since the election of toady Modi.
Just because Sunny leone is a pornstar, should the author’s daughter take up career as a pornstar?. What kind of shitty logic is this?. If you are a Modi fan, shall your kid take up politics?. Think before you blutter.
