Khushwant , no doubt is an atheist. He made it clear about his Atheism on many occasions through his columns.Coming back to the subject, Sardar Jokes are mere jokes without any harm. Khushwant Singh always used to say that Indians relish jokes on others. But not not the jokes on themselves.

If people will starts objection on jokes than it is not possible for any one to write jokes. Here in local paper names of character of jokes are Surja and Nathu, In coming it may be possible  that person who's name is Surja and Nathu file a petition. It is better to check the intention of the person.

True. Humor and jokes sans any ill and with the intention of evoking only laughter is always welcome and the people should be able to laugh freely. If it's otherwise, these jokes should be banned.

Ahaha... really funny names. But Anil a joke should taken as a joke and taken lightly. Anyone  should not be offended. As long as Jokes are treated as  jokes, its OK. This should be borne in the minds of the people who crack jokes on others And in this respect Sardars are not an exception.

it's not only about the Punjabi's or sardar's, it's about giving encourage to the people or the comedians who are able to think all these non-sense. a joke is a very good thing and just because of some ill mannered jokers this profession are getting notorious

 The very purpose of a joke is to evoke laughter and lighten the situation, so that all can have a hearty laugh. This aspect has to be taken seriously. Otherwise, the very purpose of a Joke will be lost.

Its an astonishing news. More astonishing is that Santa and Banta are still active, though with changed name Jugli Shugli.

Honourable Supreme Court has accepted this signifies that the case has merit and let us wait for the verdict though in reality such jokes are now things of past and at one time there is significance hilarious elements there now it is same as elephant and ant jokes, slowly losing its charm.

Now we have  Rahul and   Modi jokes. Lalu jokes are seeing a revival. Politicians have taken over comedy also.

Politicians were always known for their clownish activities. The difference is  these political clowns instead of making us laugh, make us weep.They are neither politicians nor clowns.

Well said, though in a funny manner, your view mirrors the true scenario in the current political sphere.

Sardar Khushwant Singh never wrote a joke himself but collected them from different sources and published in his own name. However, Sardar is a community which enjoyed cracking jokes on themselves and never felt bad about them.

You are right. Khushwant Singh compiled sardar jokes from different authors. Sardars never felt insulted due to Jokes written on them. This is what Khushwant says, Sardars have the ability to laugh at themselves.
