Deep Sidhu's death is a shock to the system. Gone too soon, but a man who left a powerful lasting legacy behind in his short rise to prominence. One of the strongest Panthic speakers I had heard in a long time, with a powerful spark of Sikh activism what we so required today.

Research shows Punjabi as 10th most spoken language in the world. Spoken globally more than French and German! Next time educationalists claim there's no benefit learning Punjabi at GCSE/A-Level/undergrad, tell them it's 10th most spoken global language.
