Not even 0.01% of them can be classified as Sikh as per the tenents of Sikh Rehat Maryada . They are not simply interested in their own upliftment they simply want easy money so that they can gamble , booze , drug & make merry without doing anything worthwhile it is more of a mental thing than anything social etc . I am sorry if I sounded too harsh .

Dear Dalbirk Ji

Not harsh at all if that is what you are seeing
But it is interesting that this is exactly how I would describe some Jats I've come across in the UK!

I agree seeker Ji even in Punjab nearly all the youngster JATTS are also going in the same direction . The only difference is the role of seniors . Among Jatts the seniors are still attached to their roots but are somehow helpless in front of youngsters but In Ravidassis the role of seniors is the same as the youngsters . Maybe some 20 years down the lane people like me will say the same things about Jatts .
