摘要
This article explores multiple ways in which gender is interpreted and expressed within the field of diaspora. It highlights the dearth of writings on Sikh women within the diaspora and their role being limited to preserving the culture and identity. It examines Sikh women's lives through two key variables-identity and empowerment. These variables are analysed through different perspectives that play a crucial role in the lives of diasporic women with an intention to provide an overview of the changes in the lives of Sikh women through different generations and calls for challenging the existing positioning of women within it.
