Re: Sikh Population: DEcline

Dear member

From your post I am not able to learn the real trend in the population of the followers of Sikh religion.

To me number is important but, quality of we Sikh is more important. As the statistics you have projected indicate that the percentage of Jews is less than that of Sikhs but, see the infulence that they have in our world.

With love and respect for all.

Amarpal Singh

are there any more recent numbers? this data is 7 years old. i'd also like to see numbers for sikhs OUTSIDE of india, as i believe sikhism is growing in western countries, which may "make up for" the decline in india.

i also wonder how they define who is sikh...

Yes, this has to be looked into. One can always google out. I do not think that sikhs outside India esp. 'white sikhs' would matter much.There % contribution would be very small.
