2026/02/22

This episode argues that the decline of Sikh participation in the Indian Army after 1984 was not accidental but the result of state discrimination, betrayal, and institutional mistrust both pre-and-post-84.

2026/01/25

Hindus have long whitewashed Shivaji as a paragon of ethics while demeaning the tenth Guru. The reality is very different. Today, as Sikhs push back against Hindu imposition, the Guru is insulted and disparaged both academically and on social media. Yet their own hero Shivaji was once the fiercest nemesis of their people, a vassal of Muslim states who even begged Aurangzeb for the same privilege. Guru Gobind Singh Ji stood higher than any patriot, teaching the oppressed to stand up for themselves
