Former Panjab - once the crown of Indian land

In reference to Mr Amrik Singh's letter dated 7-4-2018 former Panjab, once the land of five rivers, is divided and the east part of it is felt safe in India by the valorous Sikh community which has become the pride of Hindu, Jain and Buddhist; and truly speaking, the Sikhs have experienced from the past events that they are being used by others who have their own interests; and as such the writer has reminded some of the members of his community here in Britain to be aware of the situation while Mr Modi is to be attending the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting.

The foreigners remained attacking India ruthlessly for centuries finding themselves strong and well organised against the people in states of former India whose non-violent and sober culture,division in religious and philosophical outlook and adherence to just and strict war discipline at any cost was sufficient to consider them weak to attack their country again and again; and in this situation the valorous Sikhs armed themselves to defend the nation from the north-west frontier,and as such they are being honoured by the nation,and kept in high esteem for ever.

But the cruelty and injustice ended while the British government,truly realising Mahatma Gandhi's non-violence policy having strong effect,withdrew power resulting the situation for Saradar Vallabhbhai Patel who became the deputy Prime minister and Home minister, to unite the 562 princely states for the creation of strong India which became a strong partner in the Commonwealth countries in which neighbourly relations are hoped to be cordial and co-ordinate.
