Tales of Akali Babbars ( The Forgotten Heroes of Our Freedom Struggle)
Read and share to know about the forgotten greats who never found a pantheon in the hall of martyrdom.
Whose tales of valor and courage aren't known beyond the great land of Punjab.
People who gave their all for the idea of India to become reality.

@SamDalrymple123 Correct. You still find many punjab Villages got remnants of moslem mosques, old houses as well as Sikh architecture. Inspite of these misguided elements going destruction without any logic.

Bhai Jugraj Singh Toofan —
A legend, a martyr at only 19 years.
This man singlehandedly was responsible for saving hundreds of Hindu lives in the Shri Hargobindpura area of Gurdaspur-
4lakh people attended his last rites— more Hindus than Sikhs

[Gurvinder Singh Khosa @Amazingly1990]

ਮਾਰਚ ਸੀ 13 ਜਿਦੋਂ ਦਿਨ ਚੜਿਆ
ਕੈਕਸਟਨ ਹਾਲ ਵਿੱਚ ਜਾ ਵੜਿਆ....
ਗੋਰਿਆਂ ਨੇ ਵੱਖੋ ਵੱਖ ਭਾਸ਼ਣ ਕਰੇ
ਆਪਣੀ ਬਹਾਦਰੀ ਦੇ ਕਿੱਸੇ ਸੀ ਪੜੇ.....
ਕਹਿੰਦਾ ਜੱਲਿਆ ਵਾਲੇ ਬਾਗ਼ ਚ ਮੈਂ ਮੱਲਾਂ ਮਾਰੀਆਂ
ਗੋਰਿਆਂ ਫ਼ਿਰ ਮਾਰੀਆਂ ਸੀ ਤਾੜੀਆਂ.....
ਜਿਦੋਂ ਗੋਰੇ ਨੇ ਸੀ ਇਹ ਕਮੈਂਟ ਮਾਰਿਆ
ਸੂਰਮੇ ਤੋਂ ਗਇਆ ਫ਼ਿਰ ਨਾ ਸਹਾਰਿਆ.....
ਕੱਢ ਕੇ ਰਿਵਾਲਵਰ ਅੱਗੇ ਵਧਿਆ
ਮੂਧੇ ਮੂੰਹ ਪਿਆ ਉਡਵਇਰ ਲੱਧਿਆ....

Rest in peace, Sir Garry. There will never, ever be another like you.

It is with a incredibly heavy heart that I hear the news of the passing of the greatest of them all, Sir Garfield Sobers. For anyone who loves this beautiful game, Sir Garry wasn’t just a cricketer; he was the ultimate standard of what a cricketer could be.

When we talk about all-rounders today, we often look at players who can balance two disciplines. But Sir Garry? He was a master of five. He could bat like a dream, bowl fast-medium with the new ball, switch seamlessly to orthodox left-arm spin, bowl wrist spin, and field like a panther at short leg or in the slips. To watch him walk onto a cricket field, with that loose, rhythmic Caribbean stride, collars turned up, was to watch absolute majesty in motion. He played the game with a sublime joy and a fierce, competitive dignity that defined an entire era. 

I remember the sheer awe he inspired whenever India played the West Indies. You couldn't take your eyes off him. Even when he was taking the game away from you, you couldn't help but marvel at the genius of the man. His 365 not out stood as a mountain for decades, and those six sixes in an over became the stuff of folklore. Yet, off the field, he was always an absolute gentleman—warm, incredibly generous with his knowledge, and fiercely proud of the game's finest traditions. 

Cricket has lost its brightest jewel today. The stands are a little quieter, and the game is poorer without him. My deepest condolences go out to his family, his friends, and to every cricket lover across the Caribbean and the world who is mourning this incomparable loss.

In the 1980's , Times of India framed Sikhs in such a manner as to generate a stereotype of Sikhs as inherently violent, pre-modern and dangerous to the Indian state. Indian press and electronic media is Completely Anti sikh 😡😡😡

Ram Narayan Kumar was a heroic human rights advocate who worked with Jaswant Singh Khalra in uncovering the extent of state abuses in the Punjab. He carried on this vital work after Khalra was killed, through the Committee for Coordination on Disappearances in Punjab #Satluj

@ARanganathan72 @diljitdosanjh Anand they killed human rights activist and made film to tell all about. What wrong in it. We can our right. Understand.

Film #Satluj brings back sordid memories of #Punjab of 1990s. As editor of @IndianExpress in Chd, I remember our intrepid reporter in #Amritsar, Satinder Bains, break story of torture, killings of #JaswantSinghKhalra. His report of May 6, 1996 that started it all.@diljitdosanjh

At PUCL Bombay's meet, Justice Ajit Singh #Bains laid bare lack of respect for human rights by the left and defended Sikh insurgents.

“There is no rule of law in Pun­jab, no hu­man rights; every­thing is in the hands of the po­lice.” #Punjab
