Title

Existence of Caste in Punjabi Folklore: A Critical Analysis of Sitthniya’n

Authors

Abstract

The purpose of the present article is to critically evaluate the Punjabi folklore- especially in sitthniyan, a form of Punjabi folk songs. In this context, the repetitive use of caste or caste-specific words is scrutinised in order to examine the presence of caste that is deeply embedded in the socio-cultural as well as political practices of Punjabi society. In this scenario, the control over economic and political resources enables particular communities to take the charge to target and defame other sections co-existing in the same society. The self-proclamation of these higher castes claims to have ritual, spiritual and racial righteousness which they maintain by keeping the lower castes away from the central position through various kinds of discourses- like ‘purity and pollution’.

Key Words

Folklore, Sitthaniya'n, Punjab, Socio-cultural, Existence.
