SEE THE MOVIE THAT CAUSED THE INDIAN CENSOR BOARD TO SAY:
“Why should young people know a history that is

Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace--but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

Thank you so much for sharing your memories of the time and for helping to inform the world about the atrocities against Sikhs from personal experience.
I know that there are some, including the Indian State and its agents; as demonstrated by the attempts to censor Amu; who would rather that we forget about these and subsequent events.
However, this will not happen due to people like yourself and the increasing awareness of these events. The Sikh Youth of today is increasing becoming aware of the atrocities and they will continue to fight for justice.
Every year the UK sangat has a march and a rally in remembrance of the Shaheeds (

Posters and details are available on my blog (http://solarider.org/blog)
Ive only just discovered you blog but I have taken the liberty of linking to it from mine and I hope that many many more people get to read your experiences.

Solarider ji,
Thank you for your kind comments.
We are highly honoured when others choose to link to our site, except maybe some like the RSS, etc. On second thought, they might be able to learn something from us!
I am posting part of your comment in the blog proper, so others can read about the march/rally, etc.
If you know of anyone who would like to contribute their experiences to our blog, please send them over or encourage them to start their own blog which we could link to. It is vital that we survivors tell our stories. My favourite line about that is: if we don't tell our stories, our enemies will - or they'll forget entirely.
