Dera Sucha Sauda -Sikh conflict in India

[Guest]

Why has the conversion stream dried down? Only Hindus would have converted to Sikhism and as per my understanding, the first-born in many Hindu families would be given to Sikhism in the old days. Then Khalistan issue happened. Prior to this, Hindus considered Sikhs as a part of Hinduism and vice versa. So there was no downside for Hindus to convert to Sikhism as it wasn't considered conversion. Then Sikhs started claiming that they were not Hindus and were, in fact, a distinct 'religion'. Now a conversion to Sikhism 'felt' like conversion and a one way street much like Islam. Thankfully the Khalistan bs was put down and finished off. But now the Hindus are 'once bitten twice shy'. Unless Sikhism declares itself to be a stream of Hinduism the conversion stream will not start again. Not that the current Sikh leadership cares about it as far as I can see.
All the above is JMHO.
