Date Posted:	Saturday, 9/11/2004 12:56 AM MDT

I recently heard that Sikhs are no longer the majority in Punjab. I tried to look more into this online, but was unable to find the current statistics. Please let me know if there is a website where I can find the current stats on Punjab's population. Thankyou.

According to the latest cenus there are 12.7 million Sikhs in the Punjab, which is by far the majority.
