This episode argues that the decline of Sikh participation in the Indian Army after 1984 was not accidental but the result of state discrimination, betrayal, and institutional mistrust both pre-and-post-84.

Following the 1984 Sikh genocide and Operation Blue Star, Sikh soldiers and officers faced surveillance, sidelining, and humiliation despite generations of unmatched military service.

The episode examines how even highly decorated Sikh commanders such as Brigadier Pritam Singh, Lt. Gen. Harbaksh Singh, Lt. Gen. Bikram Singh, Maj. Gen. Shabeg Singh, and Major Baldev Singh Ghuman were mistreated, marginalised, or erased once they no longer fit the state narrative.

Through historical evidence and lived reality, this episode explains why many Punjabi Sikh youth consciously withdrew from military service and why the rupture between Sikh faujis and the Indian state remains unresolved.

In this episode, we examine the Wadda Ghalughara (1762) using primary historical accounts to uncover a reality often omitted from mainstream narratives.

During one of the most devastating genocidal episodes in Sikh history, Hindu and Muslim power structures, mercenary forces, and local collaborators aligned against the Sikhs, enabling Ahmad Shah Abdali’s campaign of mass violence.

This episode directly addresses the modern political claim that Sikhs should align with Hindutva, responding to the assertions of Bhagat Singh Doabi.

Through historical evidence drawn from Persian chronicles, Sikh sources, and regional records, the discussion demonstrates how religious proximity did not shield Sikhs from persecution and how survival depended on resistance rather than ideological assimilation.

Key topics explored include:

• How Hindu and Muslim forces coordinated against Sikhs during the Wadda Ghalughara

• The role of local elites, informants, and auxiliary troops

• Why Sikh persecution cannot be reduced to a Muslim-only conflict

• How history is selectively reframed to advance contemporary political agendas

• Why Sikh sovereignty, not political alignment, ensured community survival

This episode is essential listening for those interested in Sikh history, Wadda Ghalughara, Ahmad Shah Abdali, Hindutva debates, Mughal-era violence, and the politicization of historical memory.

History does not change to suit ideology. It records what happened.

A critical examination of Sikh history from 1947 to 1984 and beyond, exploring how Hindu, Muslim, and Christian political interests have often been prioritised over Sikh rights. This episode analyses Partition, state power, resistance, and the principle that Sikh political survival has historically depended on Sikhs themselves. It also examines the contested legacy of Amarjit Singh Daheru, his training under the elder generation of the Nirban Khalsa Jatha, and historical claims surrounding the early ideological and military formation of Babbar Khalsa within broader struggles over Punjab’s political future between India and Pakistan.

Hindus have long whitewashed Shivaji as a paragon of ethics while demeaning the tenth Guru. The reality is very different. Today, as Sikhs push back against Hindu imposition, the Guru is insulted and disparaged both academically and on social media. Yet their own hero Shivaji was once the fiercest nemesis of their people, a vassal of Muslim states who even begged Aurangzeb for the same privilege. Guru Gobind Singh Ji stood higher than any patriot, teaching the oppressed to stand up for themselves without ever compromising on their dignity. This episode exposes the truths Hindus tries to hide.

In this episode, we examine the controversial historical claim surrounding the parentage of Jesus, focusing on the theory that he was the son of Pantera. Drawing on the academic research of Professor James Tabor, a leading biblical scholar, the discussion explores early Jewish, Roman, and historical sources that challenge traditional Christian narratives.

We analyze why this alternative historical framework provokes strong reactions, how theological authority is constructed, and why certain interpretations of Jesus’ origins remain deeply unsettling for mainstream Christianity. This episode separates faith from historical inquiry and asks why questioning sacred narratives continues to generate fear, resistance, and censorship.

This episode is designed to expose Christian missionaries who seek to convert Sikhs to their false beliefs.

This episode explores the 1935 Jhatka Conference, a pivotal yet often overlooked moment in Sikh history that shaped Sikh perspectives on food ethics, rehat maryada, and ritual practices.

Through historical records, ethical reasoning, and Gurbani-based philosophy, the discussion explains why Sikh tradition rejects ritualistic slaughter practices and upholds Jhatka as aligned with Sikh values of responsibility, courage, and spiritual clarity.

The episode also examines Sikh perspectives on ritualism, animal consciousness, and scientific considerations around slaughter methods, grounding the discussion in Sikh thought rather than interfaith conflict.

Ideal for listeners interested in Sikh history, Panthic discourse, Gurbani interpretation, and Punjabi intellectual conversations.

In this episode, we explore the second Sikh-Mughal conflict of 1634, centered on Bibi Kaulan, a woman who boldly embraced Sikhi. Discover how Guru Hargobind and the Sikhs fought not just battles, but for the right of an individual to follow their conscience. Hear the daring, nonchalant, and rebellious spirit of the Guru as he challenged oppressive authority. This story highlights courage, faith, and the fight for spiritual freedom in Sikh history.

This episode uncovers a largely ignored story in Sikh history and contemporary experience: Brahmins who embraced Sikhi and faced betrayal, ostracism, and persecution from their own communities. From Guru Nanak to Guru Gobind Singh, high-caste individuals chose spiritual truth over social safety, paying a steep price for conscience and conviction. A revealing exploration of power, caste, and courage.
