Sidhu stirs new controversy, prefers Pakistan over South India

[halupridol]

Sikhs of Punjab which actually falls within the Indus region.

• Ganga - all or most of Northern India formed around the holy Ganga River
• Dravid- all or most of the peninsula dominated by those Dravidians
• Aboriginial-Asiatics like Gond people
• Tibeto-Burmans of the north east and west.

And I did not look at Pakistan because the subject was the major fractures India has.

This classification is as dumb as it gets,,,sikhs r bhayyas who follow sikhism,,,,its just like saying kashmir is a muslim land,,just coz bhayyas living thr r of muslim faith at this point of time.
This below is the actual functional classification :-
Bhayya- banks of indus to banks of ganga,bordered above by himalayas,below by vidhya mt.
Madrassi- south India
Chinki- northeast
Yes thr will be exceptions like gilgitis,laddakhis,n othere but this is the most useful n accepted classification

You know I am not exactly dumb. As much as there is a North South divide in South Asia there is also a West East divide. I don't need to talk about the North South divide as I think you and I broadly agree. But you seem to be ignoring the West East divide.

This is how it works. Place Peshawar in Pakistan as the extreme point in the West and Kolkatta in India as the extreme East point. Both are opposite poles of each other with extreme genetiuc, cultural divergence. However as you move east slowy it begins to change. Local migrations notwithstanding but there is a step by step change. By the time you arrive in Amritsar there has been change but I now Sikhs can easily be diffrantiated from West Bengalis from Kolkata. You of course are ignoring this change and making it look like somebody from Lahore is a atypical of somebody from Jharkand or Kolkatta. They ae not. The main differance is the aboriginal content or % in genepool increases as you move east. If you can't or refuse to see this there is not much point in any further discussion.

SI girls are lovely.

Got my first SI gf after moving just 15 days ago. Very smart and Educated.

South Indians are innocent and easy prey.

Did you speak to her in your special "brahminical language" to seduce her ? ............ totally believable.

Why is that all the muslims fantasize about Hindu girls ? even pretend to be fake brahmins ?

Muslims hate Brahmins. I do not know why?

you said



I debunked your nonsense , by pointing out that Sikhs prospered and flourish much better in foreign countries than in countries South of India.

Their pop size (an estimate) in these countries attest to the fact

Canada- 500,000
UK - 500,000
USA - 250,000
Australia - 100,000
Malaysia - 100,000

https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/countries-with-the-largest-sikh-populations.html

Idiotic to compare regions of Indian Subcontinent with US, Canada & UK.

If the West has a open door policy, the entire subcontinent will emigrate and prosper there not just Sikhs.

West only opens door to those people who are useful for them. For example - People who are willing to back-stab their motherland.

 

[suresh1773]

he is absolutely right , though northie sanghis will be in denial, And he has correctly pin pointed Tamilnadu out of all the south states, a state whose culture is is totally alien to India. This is what I been stressing all along. We need more Sidhus to point out the stark reality of south vs north and expose Hindutva India's homogenous propaganda.

Hindi (aka Urdu ) speaking Northern Indian states such as IOK, Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, UP, Bihar, MP Gujarat should merged with pakistan for regional peace and prosperity.

Says a Sri Lankan, have hindus, Sikhs,christians prospered in Pakistan. About merger,why did Bangladesh broke from Pakistan, is it for regional peace and prosperity

 

[SorryNotSorry]

lets ship Sidhu out to Pakistan.
He deserves it.

 

[SorryNotSorry]

As a Punjabi I don't feel close to indian punjabis at all.

Not really you moron. We don't share the same values and speak Punjabi differently.

Pakistani Punjabis seem to be the true people of the soil, meanwhile Indian Punjabis must have come from another planet entirely.

Like Bangladesh , Tamilnadu has all the requisites to break away from India. This the point conveyed by Sidhu , which is not a jibe at Tamils

Good that North Indians are realising Tamils are different from them

BJP advices Navjot Sindh Sidhu to join Pakistan PM Imran Khan's cabinet
14 Oct, 2018

NEW DELHI - BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra Sunday took a dig at Punjab minister Navjot Singh Sidhu, saying he should get himself inducted in Pakistan's Cabinet as he repeatedly exudes his love for the country, PTI has reported.

Quoting media reports according to which Sidhu at a festival in Kasauli recently said he can relate to Pakistan more than South India, Patra said this is the "conspiracy" of the Congress government to divide the nation of the lines of north and south parts of the country.

"The kind of love he (Sidhu) exudes for Pakistan, the only advice which we can give is Sidhu please proceed to become a part of Imran Khan's cabinet," Patra told reporters.

"Repeatedly engaging with Pakistan shows a conspiracy. It depicts his mentality to divide north and south India and that is a strategy being followed by the whole of Congress," he added.

Pakistan a better place than South India, Navjot Singh Sidhu invites wrath of extremists Hindus
14 Oct, 2018

NEW DELHI – Navjot Singh Sidhu in his recent statement has stated Pakistan a better place to be at than South India . He was basically referring to the similarity in culture of people living at both sides of the borders.

“For me, when I travel to South, I can’t understand the language. Not that I dont like the food, but I cannot have it for a long time, the culture is totally different.

When I got to Pakistan, the language is the same, like you know, when you abuse in English 10 times, one abuse in Punjabi overpowers all.” He expressed his feelings at a time when he was participating in the 7th Khushwant Singh Literature Fest.

Indian media and extreme elements have once again started censuring him. They could not have already digested his much-hyped visit to Pakistan. It peeved the Indian extremists who even sent him threats with extreme consequences.

Indian government rose objections on his warm hug with Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff. COAS’s gracious offer of opening Kartarpur corridor for the convenience of Sikh Pilgrims won the heart of Sikh community

Here's an interesting fact. New Delhi is approximately the same distance from Peshawar as it is from Kolkata. Not surprising that it was the center of power for both the Mughals and British.

This thread title is misleading, Sidhu never actually said Pakistan is better than South India. He was simply saying he shares more similarity with Paksitani Punjabis than South Indians. Although don't Pakistanis love South Indians.

Is Sidhu and you asking Pakistan to make a decision if they prefer Khalistan or Dravidanaadu?

Incorrect. Peshawar is 500 miles from Delhi. Kolkatta is another 800 miles from Delhi therefore it is nearly 60% extra distance. You are are wrong my friend. Lucknow is more to the centre as Peshawar to Kolkata is 1,300 miles.

both the Mughals and British.

For majority of the British rule they used Kolkata and only built New Delhi in 1920s about 30 years before they left.

interesting, thank you for clarifying. I was surprised New Dehli is closer to Peshawar than Kolkata. Although climate wise it is definitely more similar to Peshawar than Kolkata.
Still, out of all major South Asian cities, I think Delhi comes closest to meeting the criterium of geographic centrality. Usually that is how capital cities are determined. A good example is my home state of Florida. In a stae with the third highest population of the US, why is the tiny city of Tallahassee with population of less than 200,000 that nobody has heard about the state Capital? The reason is when Florida was made a state, the two centers of population were Pensacola and Jacksonville. Tallahassee came closest to being in the center of the two. Today, the center of population of Florida would be Orlando, and India's center of Population would be Bhopal.

You have to consider up to Kabul instead of Peshawar.

 

[Indus Pakistan]

You have to consider up to Kabul instead of Peshawar.

How so? And Kabul is only 130 miles west of Peshawar. In fact these are the distances from Peshawar - straight line.

P to Islamabad - 80 miles
P to Kabul - 130 miles
P to Lahore - 230
P to Dushanbe, Tajikistan - 340
P to Samarkhand, Uzbekistan - 440
P to Tashkent, Uzbekistan - 500
P to Delhi, India - 510

Just curious Kaptaan, where do you think Assam fits in this context? The Northeast Indian region typically gets overlooked in discussions about South Asian history.
