I have many Sikh friends and they all are wonderful human beings. People try to associate so many funny incidents with them, but I believe that people talk about them because they are definitely different from others and their innocence and sincerity of heart, in general, exceeds all other virtues which the other people from different religious groups possess. It is true that the courage and bravery they possess have no peers in the past history of India and the rest of the world. It is not only surprising but also great to see that in any country and in any part of the world, you can see a Sikh very humbly and proudly performing his duties, without compromising his identity. They have become the living symbols of India.

In this book I have Mr. Nihal Singh with me. Nihal means very satisfied and happy. The intention is not to hurt the feelings of any individual or a group. Any resemblance to names or events is quite incidental.
