Badal Sahib di jindagi ek khuli kitaab hai jis wich CORRUPTION motey motey akhra wich likhi saaf dikhai dindi hai. BADAL SAHIB DE GHAR DE DARWAZE HAMESHA KHULEY HAN because black money saamb lai gayi hai ji. Whatever Badal did in his last government , no one can forget. He was coalated with BJP but did nothjing for Satluj-Yamuna link River. He was so busy in corruption and worked only to launch his son but he forget to do anything for sons of punjab. He did only for himself. His government was a great hope for us(punjabis) bcoz Akali Govt come to power after soo long but he BETRAYED the Akali dal and was so mean and still . He is power hungry and nothing else. MAY GOD GIVE HIM ALL THE MONEY OF THE WORLD BUT DON'T MAKE OUR CHIEF MINISTER. Punjab need some loyal and Punjab Himayati chief minister. May god fulfill our wish too....

I do not agree with the comments put forward by Dalvir Singh in his essay Sabash, Amreeki Bhartio. He is of the opinion that the brain drain from India is basically because the people or not loyal to their homeland. I would like to bring up the fact that where are jobs for all these people in India. And how many jobs are filled on the basis of Merit. From a small job in a Private office to the prime jobs by different commissions are offered not on merit but on reference along with money. I have personal experience of that numerous times.

One aspect is brain-drain as mentioned by Dalvir Singh, the other aspect is these NRI bring foreign capital to India.

I am very sad to learn in the 21st century, people are fighting over religion in India especially a recent incident in Jalandhar Distt. What can be expected in other states like Gujarat, Bihar. Why can’t people stop fighting over these issues. During my last visit I saw the condition of  roads in Punjab. Still there is not enough electricity. Respective governments keep on fighting between themselves, and leaders can’t think of public welfare.

NRI’s contribute in many ways like assisting in the organisation of Village level sports festivals.

There are many other aspects which I can’t elaborate at this moment.

Please reply.

Rajinder Singh

Respected Sir,

I am mailing the press release by United Sikhs of America for the blood drive to be held at Flushing, NY on June 29, 2003. The official website for  the organisation is www.unitedsikhs.org.  I hope that the news for blood drive will be published on the website and more people can contribute to the blood drive as the website is really popular all over US. Thanking you

Sincerely,
Sameep Singh Gumtala

PRESS RELEASE
BLOOD DRIVE

The United Sikhs in Service of America, a non-profit, non-governmental human development organization is holding a blood drive camp in Flushing, New York, NY. This drive is a part of the organization's constant endeavor to help meet the blood shortage in the tri-state area.

The United Sikhs was incorporated in 1997 and is a coalition of organizations and individuals, who share a common vision to transform underprivileged and minority communities and individuals into informed and vibrant members of society through civic, educational and personal development programs, by fostering active participation in social and economic activity. It is also an avenue for networking between like-minded organizations to establish and nurture meaningful projects and dialogues - whether social or cultural- to promote harmony, understanding and reciprocity.

The blood drive is being organized with the assistance of the New York Blood Center on 29th June 2003 from 10.30AM to 4.00 PM at 38-17, Parson Blvd, Flushing New York, NY. The organization has appealed to the general public to come forward and donate blood out of a sense of duty and community spirit and give someone a gift of life.

Badal Sahib
I personelly , don't think that we need to take Ashirwad from some where else if we have " Akal Takhat" and "SRI DARBAR SAHIB" ... Our Gurus told us to bow our head in front of Guru Granth Sahib and not in front of any living person or guru. But it is a shame for Parkash Singh BAdal that he bow his head against Alok muni..... Badal Sahib , you need to know that for us " Sikhs" , Guru granth sahib is the ever living Guru and Just learn that Never bow your head against any one else.... Take ashirwad from Akal Takhat and Sri Darbar Sahib , you will get whatever you need from there and hopefully Guru " Guru Granth Sahib will show you right Path and will give you power of politics again and hopefully you will not do CORRUPTION this time... OUR PUNJAB IS IN THE JAWS OF LEADERS LIKE YOU who have no interest for punjabis progress but you people think only for your Bank balances... God made you the king of that state where sometimes " Maharaja Ranjit Singh' ruled and spend each and every second for the progress and properity of Punajb state.... But now we have no choice , we have to vote to someones like you who Have no pain for the Punjabis... You (Badal like) people are responsible for the wrost state of the Punjabis .... May God show you people the right direction and BLESS OUR BELOVED PUNJAB

Dear editors: Sorry for English letter. I really wish I have the time to write it in Punjabi. Bear with me on this. Thanks.

I have not denied the happening of the incident that Bhajan Aujla has narrated. I have said that such a thing is possible to happen but it is not the norm. I have heard similarly twisted stories happening in New Delhi from
some "rich and modern" elites of that city who might have access to parties. That does not prove anything. To narrate one incident and then extrapolate it to state that, that is how the culture is in America - is false. Americans are freedom-loving people and they certainly use their freedom to choose their partners in sex or life. Someone from a culture like ours considering such a thing immoral is understandable. For others beating one's wife and stocking her up in the backroom to keep the family honor is equally immoral.

Sorry for writing the letter in English but I have only few minutes so don't want to waste on polishing my gurmukhi keyboarding skills. Among other things Dalbir Singh has mentioned at the end of his recent tirade against American evil is the allegation on American soldiers that they raped 2 teenage girls in Iraq. He has not given any references. So let me do so. This news first came in a local Iraqi paper called As-saah last weekend. Of course there has been denial of this by the spokesperson of the US Army. Last I read about it is that editor of As-saah is saying that if the report written by his 2 local reporters is wrong he will fire them. [Dalbir Singh being a journalist knows very well how local reporting in small newspapers work] In my view he (As-saah editor) has to prove that the report is true rather than US Army proving it un-true. It is easier to prove that such a thing happened (dead bodies, accounts of people who might have seen or met these girls afterwards etc) than to prove that it did not. Let us see and wait how it unfolds but since the last report around May 8th or 9th, nothing has been put forward by As-saah.

But did Dalbir Singh wait? Naah. He finally found some great proof of American Evil and quickly penned it down ignoring anything else that might have been happening only 5 miles from his home. In fact I admire his zeal to go to such an extent single handedly to raise jihad against American Evil but his zeal is turning him into a hatred filled illogical person that he was not supposed to be. He states that "iraq wich har doojey din amreeki sainika vallon balaatkaar keetey jaan dian khabran aa rahian hann". What a lie Mr. Dalbir Singh! Where are these reports? aa rahian hann? kithey? in The Sun of London? I just checked websites of half a dozen reputed Arab and Islamic papers and there is one news (mentioned above) that I have come across in the last many weeks. Do you have any professional responsibility to mention source of such news in your articles? When you say "har doojey din", don't you consult your own mind to see if it is really true? Or mere allegations against America are enough now to make you a popular International journalist amongst half educated village elites in rural Doaba? If you truly believe what is written in London tabloids and Khilafah.com let me add few more news for your reference for future articles:  4000 Jews did not go to work to towers on 9/11, the two planes that hit WTC were actually missiles from US army guided with precision, Bhindrawala escaped to Pakistan just before the big bomb hit Akal Takhat, Americans did not go to moon - they faked it in Nevada deserts for TV, 20 thousand US soldiers died in Afghanistan fighting the brave Pathans, all Hindus drink cow urine every morning, I am an alien from Mars and have 2 extra fingers on my right hand to type fast. These are all published reports in newspapers one time or the other. Well, except information about my 2 extra fingers - but that falls under privacy act.:-)

Lot of people here also think that Jessica Lynch rescue might not have been that big a deal as Army tried to make it. Army says they did not have any idea how much resistance they were going to receive around the hospital during the operation and so might have used more force than needed for the task. I can understand both views. In retrospect everyone is a genius. There is nothing wrong if it was all a part of psy ops. Wars are multi-dimensional in the 21st century. America's critics will do the same - that is if they could afford fighting a war these days. Any way, at some level I do accept criticism of the handling of this particular case by the army valid.

While searching on Internet for rapes by occupying armies I came across numerous web sites about rapes by Indian army in Kashmir. Is it an occupying army? Only a rhetorical question. Please don't answer. I don't want to put you on spot for saying something un-patriotic.

Every day we are reading punjabi-news on internet. Yesterday (12 june 1.00 a.m.) our nephew came to visit us in Norway. At New Delhi airport he was stopped for no reason. He was bringing with him sweets. The securitygard wouldn`t let him go through the checkpoint before he gave him the "panjeeri". In Europe we are not used to this type of behavior. The stuff was innocent, so why this fuzz?
Or maybe the securitygard was very hungry???? Maybe he should get more paid so he can buy his own food, or what????Our experience are that they appear like vultures. We would like to have this in your paper. Then we would be deeply thankful.

Bhajan Aujla,

'Asabyat jeev' is a marvellous article. Your observation of the social, animal and physical environmental phenmenon are superb. The way you have correlated the human and animal social life behavior deserves full appreciation. There is a perfect hit at modern youths' life style. They seems to be more animals than animals who have no apartments.At least they have are not hypocrats.

I am reminded of a quotation ' more I see of men more I love my dog'.
Keep on Aujla

Dear 5abi readers

History of human migration is as old as history of human kind. Even animals migrate in search of food and better living conditions. People always migrate in search of opportunities or survival. My great grandfather went to vaar (West Punjab) in 1880's (for opportunities) and my father migrated back to east Punjab in 1947 (for survival). Punjabis are one on most migrated communities out of south Asian. Punjabis were first one to come to USA in 1880's. Dalvir Singh article is not fair to Punjabis or other south Asians in living in North America. All Americans are immigrants from some where. Many of us may or may not agree with our Government Policies. How many average Indian protested against genocide in New Delhi-84 or Gujarat (other than lip service in media). Recently hundreds of thousands of American showed their open disagreement with policies of US government. . American public opinion was main reason to end Vietnam war. All people are not good or bad in any country or culture. I agree America is not a perfect country But American system allows average person to reach his/her full potential. We can celebrate our culture (Punjabi) with out any hindrance in this country.

http://www.5abi.com/khaas-rep/USA2003/YC-janmeja/010603_yc-mela1.htm )

It is our own fault that if we don't teach good values to our next generations. With improved communication, tecnology and freedom we can enjoy our culture (or any other) while living in any part of this planet-Earth. All these boundaries are man made. Here is nice article and discussion on same topic in Outlook India Magazine:

http://www.outlookindia.com/full.asp?fodname=20030120&fname=Cover+Story+%28F%29&sid=1

Here was my response to OutlookIndia, why people like me left India?:

Regarding Quit India Movement (Exodus from India)

It is sad that quality of life of average Indian has not improved after 1947 (so called independence) but got worse for some (in comparison to other parts of developed world). Yes many Indian take pride in having cell phones, TV etc, but roads and quality of health care for average Indian has gone down hill. The difference between have and have not’s has widened. People who tried to change system were called terrorists or separatists or made victims by state by labeling them some thing terrible.

You missed the point that first south Asians to migrate to Canada and USA were from Punjab 1890’s. Many of them went back to fight for freedom of India from British. Even Kartar Singh Sarabha (mentor of Bhagat Singh) was a Berkeley graduate from California. Also since 1984 many migrants came from Punjab and New Delhi here (to USA/Canada) due to human right issues at that time (Our media still hesitate to discuss those issues openly) -legally or illegally to western countries. They were not well educated but hard working people tired of Indian system and they succeeded by their sheer hard work and many have settled well in their new adopted homes. But 1990’s brought new wave of many professional from south India, who came for economical opportunities, at same time many of them are also responsible for re-importing ideas from west back to India and developing information technology industry in India. This has proved that given the opportunity even average hard working person can do quite well.

My other point is that, expatriate Indians send lot more back to India than they could have produced in India. Also Indian lobby in west is creation of Indian people living in these countries. Overall this, out flow has done more good to India than harm. Many of the expatriate Indian has lot more love for their country of origin than many Indian living in India. Any how I don’t see any future for honest people in India unless we change our mentality and develop respect for fairness, law and justice. We (Indians in west) love India but we hate insensitive political system in India. Let us change it for good. Average Indian has a good brain but the system sucks. Rich People spend crores on their homes but no one cares for spending any thing to upgrade their streets and roads (system tools). In selfish and superstitious societies very few can succeed, only the ones who know how to fool and exploit the sick system. We hope and pray for better future of people living in Indian Subcontinent. We will keep contributing our share even sitting thousands of miles away.

I just read the article by Mr. Dalbir Singh. And i read all the fuss about it. I liked it but wanted to let him know not every American Indian is same. Yes we do live here, we made a - choice a personal choice, but that does not mean we agree with our respective Government's policies. I am a 37 years old female, came to Canada 18 years ago. When i was in India growing up, in school, in college all the time reading about, hearing about all those brides being killed because of DAAJ I remember those days. If i had not come here i would have been one of them. That is only one of the problems MY SWEET HOME (INDIA) have. I am not contradicting your point, American people are just like that as you described what i am trying to say here is if somebody made a choice for better life that does not mean that they always agree with their govts. or their adopted countries bad habits. Do you agree with all of the Indian govt.'s policies? So that has nothing to do with American Indian people.And by the way when you were in America was your trip paid by you or ????
Sorry if i hurt anybody's feelings.
