Young, Sikh and Proud

[jay999]

Did anyone watch this?
Even though his own brother narrated the show you can clearly see the Khalistan agenda being thrown in...
I remember in one of his videos Jagraj claimed his family fled India during 1984 riots...
And here his brother says they were both born in the U.K

Journalist Sunny Hundal explores the legacy of his late brother Jagraj Singh, the most popular Sikh leader in modern Britain, who, after turning from westernised 'party animal' to religious preacher, went on to spark an unprecedented revival of young people returning to the faith.

Sunny and Jagraj fell out very publicly over their opposing religious views and didn’t speak for years. Now Sunny explores what led to that schism and why they each had such different approaches to the faith. Sunny also asks whether what he sees as a rise in religious activism among a minority of young Sikhs points towards a bigger story of identity and belonging? Is this a story he and his brother are also a part of?

On this journey Sunny meets people from all walks of the faith, including a young protester, one of the UK’s most senior Sikh policemen and the leader of one of the country’s most outspoken Sikh youth organisations. In a bid to understand why his brother became so religious, Sunny also spends time with their family and, for the first time, visits a Sikh camp. His brother, like hundreds of other young people, went to one of these camps to learn more about the faith. By learning about his brother’s path through the religion, and by exploring his own identity, can Sunny understand more about what it means to be Sikh in modern Britain

I remember him saying that too..

When his brother said they were both born in the U.K I was like ...wtf
I have the clip somewhere. I think..before he died I downloaded many of his older vids

Did you notice how his dad lives in the USA and his mum in Britain?
She was a single parent from a council house..
Its no secret that many Sikh punjabi men leave their wives and move off

The way the whole documentary was gelled
No wonder Jagraj had issues over punjabi culture

[wise]

The Sikh police officer is how I remember the west midlands
These new generation of Sikhs have ruined the image of Sikhism with their failed Khalistani propaganda.

I think I saw that clip..He was telling the Sikhs the story of how some Skhs in rural areas were being were being attacked during 1984 and one family was unharmed because of the few Sikhs standing outside with weapons outside their houses...Then he went on to say, when a Sikh gets on board a train or any other public transport in India (the local Hindus all impressed) public would say "lo ek sikhi aagaya"



If his story had any substance,


a) He was born in 1979?
b) Why was he born in the U.K?
c) How long was he living in India for?
d) He was 6 years old when the 1984 riots took place, and then fled to U.K with his family?
e) His parents however came over to the U.K in the 60's

As a British Sikh he never experienced the 1984 Sikh riots

But most of his talks on Khalistan and such are based on those events

When they showed the Sikh wedding the girl was wearing a Bhindi

I'm surprised the Khalistanis didn't complain about that?

He was defiantly born in the U.K

He manufactured a lot of shit to stir up emotions

Okay calm down..Some heavy handed generalization skills you have right there, "leaving the wives bit"

I think Jagraj did have mental issues or some kind of frustration built up...The way he spoke , so obnoxious. After decades the Sikhs finally had a western voice to unite the them..My cousin married into a Sikh family even though her husband doesn't follow Sikhism he still wears a pagri, keeps his beard and wears a kara for namesake..before Jagraj came along nobody cared about Sikhs giving out lunghar..All that hype over Sikhism happen after the video on yt circulated with him and that Muslim guy..Remember??
