We all love Sardar jokes. But do you know that Sikhs are one of the most hardworking, prosperous, and diversified communities in the world?
My friend told me about the following incident which I wish to share with you. It has had a deep impact on my thinking.
During the last vacation, a few of my friends went to Delhi. They rented a taxi for local sightseeing. The driver was an old Sardar, and being boys, these pals began cracking Sardarji jokes just to tease the old man. To their surprise, the fellow remained unperturbed.
At the end of the sightseeing, they paid the cab hire charges. The Sardar returned the change but gave each one of them one rupee extra and said, "Son, since morning you have been telling Sardarji jokes. I listened to them all, and let me tell you, some of them were in bad taste. Still, I don't mind because I know that you are young blood and are yet to see the world. But I have one request. I am giving you one rupee each. Give it to the first Sardar beggar that you come across in this or any other city."
My friend continued, "That one rupee coin is still with me. I couldn't find a single Sardar begging anywhere."

The jokes could be funny, but even funnier is the "FACT" jokes are being cracked ON "Sardars".
Jokes on "Sardars" are made or cracked mostly by those who do not know Indian history (500 years old).
Here are a few facts from Indian history:
a) Sikhs were popularly called Sardars (means Leader in English) because they volunteered as leaders (during the difficult times of Mughal oppression) -- leaders who first led themselves to be universally "empathetic" human beings and then led groups to defend against tyranny.
b) The Holy Book of Sikhs (which they regard as a Living Guru) contains Holy Hymns by Sikh Gurus and by Enlightened Saints of different sects including Hindus and Muslims.
c) The 1st Sikh Guru (Guru Nanak) advocated that Hindus and Muslims should live in peace. Guru Nanak advocated that -- just by calling a flower by different names does not change its fragrance -- similarly, calling God with different names, ideas, or ideologies does not change God's roles or properties or laws!
d) Two Sikh Gurus suffered tortures and sacrificed their lives to prevent Hindus from being forcibly converted by some tyrant rulers. Gurus saw it as the suppression of "freedom to practice one's own religion".
e) The Sikhs took up to dress in unique "attires" (Hair, Beard, Bangle, Kirpan, Turban...) so that they could be distinguished as defenders of humanity -- just as police "uniforms" today are meant to distinguish persons who are defenders of law.
