Jokes on Sardars (Sikhs) read this first

I was standing at jalandhar station when my attention went towards a Sikh
youth standing near me wearing a Black turban having a long beard and wearing a
kirpan over his shirt looking similar to a terrorist.

After a while, one local train arrived, which was totally packed. The Sikh
youth tried to alight the train but failed to do so. Just then a voice was heard
from the back coach 'Sardarji Barah Baj gaye' (Sir it's 12 o'clock!)

The Sikh youth looked over at that voice maker who was a young Mischievous
type of person and instead of showing any anger made a smile towards him.

The smile made was so enigmatic that it seemed as if some type of truth lies
behind it. Not able to resist my temptation, I walked towards him and asked
why did he smile at that person who teased him. The Sikh youth replied, 'He was
not teasing me but was asking for my Help'. I was surprised with these words and
he told me that there was a big history behind that which one should know. I
was eager to know the History and the Sikh youth narrated:

During 17th Century, when Hindustan was ruled by Mughals, all the Hindu
people were humiliated and were treated like animals. Mughals treated the Hindu
women as there own property and were forcing all Hindus to accept Islam and even
used to kill the people if they were refusing to accept.That time, our ninth
Guru, Sri Guru Teg Bahadarji came forward,in response to a request of some Kashmir
Pandits to fight against all these cruel activities. Guruji told the Mughal
emperor that if he could succeed in converting him to Islam, all the Hindus
would accept the same.

But, if he failed, he should stop all those activities . The Mughal emperor
happily agreed to that but even after lots of torture to Guruji and his
fellow members he failed to convert him to Islam and Guruji along with his other
four fellow members, were tortured and sacrificed their lives in Chandni Chowk.

Since the Mughals were unable to convert them to Islam they were assassinated.

Thus Guruji sacrificed his life for the protection of Hindu religion. Can
anybody lay down his life and that too for the protection of another
religion?
This is the reason he is still remembered as "Hind Ki Chaddar", shield of
India.
For the sake of whom he had sacrificed his life, none of the them came
forward to lift his body, fearing that they would also be assassinated

Seeing this incident our 10th Guruji, Sri Guru Gobind Singhji (Son of Guru
Teg Bahadarji) founder of khalsa made a resolution that he would convert his
followers to such human beings who would not be able to hide themselves and
could be easily located in thousands. At the start, the Sikhs were very few
in numbers as they were fighting against the Mughal emperors. At that time,
Nadir Shah raided Delhi in the year 1739 and looted Hindustan and was carrying lot
of Hindustan treasures and nearly 2200 Hindu women along with him. The news
spread like a fire and was heard by Sardar Jassa Singh who was the Commander of the
Sikh army at that time. He decided to attack Nadir Shah's Kafila on the same
midnight. He did so and rescued all the Hindu women and they were safely
sent to their homes.

It didn't happen only once but thereafter whenever any Abdaalis or Iranis
had attacked and looted Hindustan and were trying to carry the treasures and
Hindu women along with them for selling them in Abdal markets, the Sikh army
although fewer in numbers but were brave hearted and attacked them at midnight,12
O'clock and rescued women.

After that time when there occurred a similar incidence, people started to
contact the Sikh army for their help and Sikhs used to attack the raider's
at Midnight, 12 O'clock. Nowadays, these "smart people" and some Sikh enemies
who are afraid of Sikhs, have spread these words that at 12 O'clock, the Sikhs
go out of their senses. This historic fact was the reason which made me smile
over that person as I thought that his Mother or Sister would be in trouble and
wants my help and was reminding me by saying off 'Sardarji Barah Baj Gaye'

"Its easy to joke on a Sardar, but It's too difficult to be a Sardar"
