Sikhi is not an ethnicity



It is a religion, you are NOT ethnically Sikh



Your ethnicity is Punjabi, French, Bihari, Sindhi



If you don't want to write Indian in the ethnicity box, write your actual ethnicity rather than Sikh like an idiot

A vocal minority exploiting religious illiteracy to advocate for something it wants. Debate has been hijacked, and when people say that there has been a wide ranging consultation – utter nonsense. Lobbying dominated by the vocal minority @ONS https://t.co/zR2lsK2wZh — Dr Jagbir Jhutti-Johal (@JhuttiJay) July 23, 2018

I understand many British Sikhs reject being called Indian but this is just misleading. Sikhi is not an ethnicity... https://t.co/51YVN3XrRw — Rupinder Kaur (@RupinderKW) July 22, 2018

Use of Mandla vs Lee by @AppgBritSikhs @SikhFedUK also inaccurate https://t.co/SjjycgZEgX in it Sikhs accepted to be defined as a racial group by reference to ethnic origins to suit purposes of RRA 1976 and show recourse to discrimination. Never intended to prove ethnicity! — Jay Singh-Sohal (@JSinghSohal) July 23, 2018

One of the achievement of revealed religion( including Sikhism) was to treat human as human irrespective of caste, creed, clan ,Ethnicity, culture etc . This paved the way for democracy world over later.

Now it would be foolish to go for sikh ethnicity tag for petty benefits. — Satinderjit singh (@satty643) July 23, 2018
