Haldee is crazy good. Multi-purpose good. Just recently we had an ant infestation - ant powder and spray wasn't doing anything so poured haldee on the edges of the outside doors and bish bosh bish...job done. Also, a long time ago, had an old car with a leaking radiator. Took it to the garage which was quoting me something like £500 to fix it. A freshie from Punjab recommended I use a teaspoon of haldee because in India they use it as a sealant to fix leaks. Poured a teaspoon of haldee in my radiator and bish bosh bish....job done. Bobinderjit's yer uncle. No more leak. Haldee is crazy good.

I made some haldhee powder from fresh haldhee I bought. It's messy and time consuming but worth it.

How comes these guys were still using the true Khalsa standard at this time? How did the community come to universally accept the modern version over this? 

Did goray do the standard flag change thing they do in places they've conquered?

LMAO  It looks like such a far away world   looks similar to how the rajasthani women dress. 

Even the singhs from that era are dressed really differently 

Singhs from the 1850s

Current indian fashion is influenced by Bollywood     I think sherwanis look disgusting     they look ugly   

When I get married I ain't gnna wear that sh1t    

I think the above people from the puratan pics look so much better.
