Abstract
The partition of Subcontinent embarked the new societal fabrication and
division of United India transformed into Bharat and Pakistan. Pakistan had to face the issue of Bangali
Nationalism and Pashtoon question but on the contrary, Bharat had to manage the Sikhs and the Indian
authorities were successful to tackle the Sikhs through deceptive political steps. The Sikhs were lulled with
fake promises and false words which were made with them during the partition drive. Soon after the
establishment of Bharat, the Sikhs were denied to be recognized as the separate nation or separate
religious ethnic group. They (Sikhs) were deceived by dominant Hindu element and the results were very
fatal that Sikhs had to feel their apartheid conditions and yielded for more autonomy and later on for
separate state where they could enjoy their liberties out of the influence of Hindutva. The Sikhs were
considered as the sub section of the Hinduism and they were not recognized by the Indian constitution. This
paper deals with the initial developments of Sikhs deception especially in the context of Indian
Constitution.
