The Pak Tribune reports:
Enough water available for Rabbi crops: Liaquat JatoiLittle known factoids. Let's not be oblivious to how the same words are used by different people.
ISLAMABAD: Enough water is available for Rabbi season and the provinces will get adequate supplies for maturity of the crops.
In Pakistan and India there are rabbi crops and there is rabbi season. No. You can't grow the little spiritual leaders or hunt them. The rabbi season in the Himalyas:
Rabbi season generally occurs from Nov.~Dec. to Mar.~Apr. But in the high altitude, it is observed from Dec.~Jan. to May~Jun. The main crops during the Rabbi season are, wheat, barley, ray, sarson (mustered), pea, gram, and masur. Almost, all the crops are grown in the entire region, but their intensity and yield vary from one district to other. Whereas, in the plains of Tarai, Bhabar, Doon and Dwar, particularly in some parts of Dehradun district, Pauri district, Haridwar district, and Udhamsingh Nagar district, wheat, gram and pea are grown extensively. In the elevated regions, barley, mustered oil, rai, and masur (a local variety of pulses) along with wheat, gram and pea are grown, but their yields are lower than those of the crops grown in the plains.Another source:
Rabbi cropsAnd then there is this one new age Rabbi (first name, after the season no doubt, not title) Shergil, a Punjabi pop singer:
Jowar, wheat and gram are grown in the district during Rabbi season. Jowar is common in almost all the talukas. However, in Yeole, Dindori, Sinnar and Kalvan talukas, it is grown on a larger scale. Wheat is grown in Dindori, Niphad, Baglan, Yeola and Nashik talukas. Gram is grown in all the talukas.

A United States of Earth, with Dalai Lama as its head is an idea that Rabbi Shergill is toying with for sometime now. If you know him only as an accomplished Punjabi pop singer, whose life went for a toss in 1989, when he saw Bruce Springsteen at a live concert and decided to have a guitar and be like Springsteen; and who went through, now a legendry, difficult phase to get recognition, ended up getting laurels from the likes of Amitabh Bachchan and Sir V S Naipaul, he tells us about his other side...
Update: Rabbi Shergill is going Bollywood!
