Book Review
Introduction: Seems like the Eradi Tribunal had to go through the motions of putting on an act while the ‘jugglers’ sitting at the Center had already predetermined the fate of Punjab.
Introduction: It is interesting to note that the experts and chairs of both the committees just happen to be Brahmin Hindus in a state where the majority of the people and farmers are Sikhs. Could any justice be expected under the circumstances?
Introduction: _This means that every cusec of water generates 33 lakh rupees_ _of money every year. As_ _income….What about the water that flows into other states at the cost of Punjab?...[Page_ _14]_
I wonder who is responsible for the wasted water and the cost of water flowing into the other states, which really are at the cost of Punjab’s economy.
Introduction: The book has some patently inaccurate information on the Sikh Faith and History, but is a historical record of a real life event of a determined group of Sikhs challenging the flagrant racism by the government of Canada and that record, has been summarized in a pretty cogent manner for posterity.
Introduction: Mangalvadi has accurately summarized and described the phobia of the Brahmins due to which these same base schemers have planned and engineered hundreds of pogroms and genocides of various minorities in last 70-80 years, murdering millions of innocents while the world remains a mute bystander as they are told again and again that these were unplanned riots.
Introduction: Practically all the books used by Axel to write this book, are McLeod’s and his entrouge of disciples.

Introduction: Axel does not realize that the Sikhs believe in the “Chardi Kalaâ€, i.e., an ever uplifting unbounded optimism. This is inculcated to the Sikhs by their Faith. Anyone whether they belong to a distinct ethnic or a religious group like to hold onto and cherish ‘things’ that they hold dear, regardless of their place in the world.
Introduction: Sri K. S Lall a foremost Hindu Indian historian states that according to his calculation and estimation that the Hindu population decrease by nearly 80 MILLION between the years 1000 AD to 1525 AD. This does not take into account the year when the Mughal invasion started in 625 AD to 1000 AD and continues 1525 AD until the 1914 AD, ended midway during British rule. Many renowned Indian historians feel that the true figure of the genocide perpetuated on Hindus by masquerading ISLAM is horrendous. These atrocities perpetuated for over 12 centuries first by Islam then by Colonial Christianity.
Introduction: The primary purpose of the Mahabharata, Ramayana and the eighteen epics is really to protect and safeguard the determining of birth-status and to strengthen and stabilize the feudal system of the Brahmin combine.

Introduction: _Greek authors, more than two and two and a half thousand years ago have called Ceylon_ _as “Tamraparni†and not Lanka…….Even during the reign of Ashoka, people knew only_ _of “Tamraparni†and not Lanka…..The great Indian Geographer of the 6th_ _century A.D.,_ _Varahamitra has said Lanka and Ceylon are not one and the same and they are two_ _separate islands….Etymologists are of the view that the word Lanka was
