Story Behind 12 Baj Gaye Joke: Often, a joke like ’12 Baje Gaye’ is used to tease a Sardar friend in your group of friends. You must have heard the words like ’12 Baje Gaye’ for Sardars and Sikhs. Recently, during the India-Pakistan match, former Pakistani wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal was also seen laughing while talking about ’12 Baje Gaye’. Kamran said this while referring to Indian cricketer Arshdeep. But do you know the truth behind this ’12 Baje Gaye’ story? Many people like Pakistani Kamran have been laughing at this for years thinking that it is to tease the Sardars. After knowing the real story behind it, you will feel ashamed of yourself for laughing.

The match between India and Pakistan was going on. It was the last over. Former Pakistani wicket keeper Kamran Akmal was commentating on a Pakistani channel. While commentating, he said, ‘It’s 12 o’clock, anything can happen.’ Another commentator said, ‘The last over should not be given to a Sikh.’ Cricketer Harbhajan Singh also lashed out at Kamran on this whole matter. Harbhajan wrote in his tweet, ‘A million curses on you Kamran Akmal.. You should know about the history of Sikhs before opening your dirty mouth. You should be ashamed.’

What is the story behind ’12 Bajne’…

In fact, what people consider a joke is the story of the pride and bravery of the Sikhs. It is said that the Muslim invader Ahmed Shah Abdali was kidnapping many Hindu girls and women from their homes. He used to take these girls to the market of Ghazni to sell them. To save themselves from this terror of Abdali, the women had extended their hands to the Sikhs for protection. After this Sikh General Baba Jassa Singh Ahluwalia attacked at 12 o’clock at night. It is said that through this attack, Sikhs saved 2200 girls. They not only saved their lives but also sent them to their homes. After this, Sikh Generals used to start a front against atrocities at 12 o’clock. After this campaign, terror regarding Sikhs spread among the Mughals. The fear spread in the camp of invaders like Abdali that ‘It is 12 o’clock, be alert.’ Because when it was 12 o’clock, Sikhs used to protect their daughters and daughters-in-law.

Hopefully after knowing this truth you will understand that 12 Baje Gaye is not a joke but a story of respect for Sikhs. Pakistani cricketers like Kamran Akmal might also feel some shame and wisdom.
