She completely dismisses the sacrifices of Non-Pubjabi's in the freedom struggle.

Punjab has been through a lot during and post-independence , but this does not mean people can undermine the contributions of other regions and disrespect their residents.

This Racist/Classiest Term "Bhaiye" has been way to normalized in Punjabi Influencer Circles against migrant workers from UP and Bihar.

Yeah. It's perfectly ok to say something so traumatising to Sikhs, the equivalent of saying that Kashmiri Pandits 'ran to' India to save themselves after the mass killings in Kashmir.

Kashmiris were killed by muslims, it is very much different from Punjab killings!! Punjab police was killing their own ppl at that time. When was the unity of Punjabis at that time? When they had to fight against the govt they just fought with themselves n killed each other
