Additional comments:
1) We can make exceptions to these rules, but for the most part, we try to stick by them. All of our previous judges have been of Punjabi descent. We are looking for judges that understand Punjabi. So if you are Gujrati, but can speak and understand Punjabi, that works for...
Clarifications:
1) We've always had Punjabi judges and want judges that can understand what they are watching. Words can make a difference and how teams potentially sing bolis are important to us as that is a value a team is presenting. Punjabi judges for the most part will pick up on that...

No problem Saleem.
As for VIBC, like I mentioned in my e-mail, PROBABLY. I'm not sure how many total non-profits there are, but there are probably a handful. Again, anybody promoting Punjabi culture/South Asian culture should be applauded as that is what keeps our rich culture on-going, from...
