Sardar's - Jokes & Truth
In the diwali vacation, Jayant and his couple of friends had gone to delhi
. They rented a taxi for local sight-seeing.
The driver was a old sardar, and boys being boys, Jayant and his pals began
cracking sardarji jokes, just to insinuate the old man.
But to their surprise, the fellow remained unperturbed.
At the end of the sight-seeing, they paid up the hire-charges. The sardar
returned the change.
Moreover, he gave each one of them one rupee extra and said,( in Hindi , of
course) ,''son, since morning you have been telling sardarji jokes. I
listened to them all and let me tell you, some of them were in a very bad
taste.
Still, I don't mind coz I know that you are young blood and are yet to see
the world. But I have just one request. Here I am giving you one rupee
each. Give it to the first sardar beggar that you come across in this
city."
Jayant continued," That one rupee coin is still with me. I couldn't find a
single sardar begging on the streets of Delhi."
Friends, we all love sardar jokes. But the fact of matter is that sikhs are
one of the most prosperous and diversified communities in the world. The
secret behind their universal success, according to me , is their
willingness to do any job with utmost dedication. A sardar will drive a
truck or set up a roadside garage or a dhaba, but he will never beg on the
streets.
Are we just going to pass on long forwarded mails of sardar jokes, or are
we going to try and bring our own community on par with theirs ??
Please think abt it and let me know your reactions.
But, as far as I know, Jayant stopped cracking sardar jokes.
