<<To this day, no
Sikh has signed the Indian Constitution.>>
sikh80 ji
i hope you cross check certain facts before posting
out of the 92 member of the constituent assembly that drafted the constitution, 2 were
Sardar Hukam Singh(Akali) and Partap Singh Kairon(Congress)
the above 2 were "elected" representatives through the constituent assembly elected through franchise in 1946
and their signatures are "present" on the final constitution
Two members had walked out Sardar Bhupinder Singh Mann and another "observer" member from Akali Dal faction asking for third state.
If you count Rajkumari Amrita Kaur( Who was born to a
Sikh father, maharaja of Kapurthala and Christian mother) it could be 3 but Amrita Kaur was ( in rumors) an atheist
EVERY
Sikh(self claiming) joining the IAS, IPS or Government services takes up the oath to defend the constitution.
so please donot tell me that no
Sikh is working in those professions.
Else there might be a new
Sikh ID card that Mr. Choor Singh might be providing, please enlighten.
<<Nehru is reported to have said: "I shut my ears when someone speaks to me about honoring promises made to Sikhs during the independence movement". >>>
although not a big fan of nehruvian policies, i never find any reference to any news agency ( indian or foreign) providing reference to all such claims of statements being made.

though the topic might sound relevant for discussion, the garbage inside the article makes this topic sound like a seperatist article rather than discussion on religion.
just my thoughts on the topic-
Sikhs are neither hindu, nor muslim, nor they are the so called "sikhs"
Sikhs are seekers, they seek truth through the Enlightened Ones and donot believe in any of the rituals of STRUCTURED religions.
you might like to refer back to SGGS to seek out the meaning of who is a
Sikh, i believe you have more knowledge of SGGS and its teachings than me.
