 | Sarmukh Singh DIG |
 The story dates back to 1960s, when a tall, well-built sardar, Sarmukh Singh of village Sarhali, Distt. Amritsar was serving as a DIG in the railway police. Sarmukh Singh, who wore a large moustache, was very proud of his career achievement. He would stand in front of the mirror, gloating over his success, fondly rubbing his moustache. He would say to himself: Wah bi Jatt de puttara, tu tan suhage te chaddea maan nahin see, hun ta tun DIG ayeein. Jithe marzi rail gaddi khadi karwan lewein! (Oh you son of farmer, as if it wasn't enough for you to ride the ox driven land levelling planck, that you have become a DIG and can stop a train in its tracks, wherever you want). Of course, Sarmukh Singh's self-aggrandizing wisdom was inspired from a Punjabi proverb, which says that the farmer gets a kick, riding the ox driven wooden planck that levels his fields.

(User Info | Send a Message) | | Well said, Sardar Sarwan Singh!! The jatt is justifiably proud of his oneness with the earth. What is dirt to a 'shehri' is mother earth to only the farmer and the soldier! The one toils to coax foodgrains from her bountiful kindness, the other carries his life , to be tossed away in a second to protect her from those who would ravage, plunder and despoil ! |
