Thanks God Indian Punjab is separated from Pakistan
Indian Punjabis have beaten 46% of Punjabis of Pakistan side, not even identifying Sarikies as a separate langauge...
At least Punjabis at Pakistan knows that it is different and they would not go for intermarriages...You need to see the voilent movement on Sariki to open your eyes at least please!
I've got one of my close friend and colleage (very nice) as hindko speaking and they would be incidently asking translation of Sarikies....Interestingly someone is saying it 99.9% Sariki...Yes it is true that Hinko person can speak Sariki but Punjabi (who has not listen in childhood would die but can not produce certain voices...)
All sindhi, Punjabi and Sariki, Hindko are Aryan languages and have similarities but they have distinctions if you recognisse or not...
Come on hindi and urdu problem in India is still not settled and still in open problems on these language, still they are very much close but have different identification....
When from years and Sariki movement is seen on Youtube
some one saying Punjabis 50-60% needs to be corrected..
We need to check the demographic distribution and language distribution in census, it is the recent census data of Pakistan:
As of 2009, the Punjabi population dominates with 78.7 million (44.15%), followed by 27.2 million (15.42%) Pashtuns, 24.8
million (14.1%) Sindhis, 14.8 million (10.53%) Seraikis, 13.3 million (7.57%) Muhajirs and 6.3 million (3.57%) Balochs. The remaining 11.1 million (4.66%) belong to various ethnic minorities.[226] There is also a large worldwide Pakistani diaspora, numbering over seven million.[227]
How close bold figures are whilss they can have provinces but Seraikis can not have...SHAME
those who still thinks sariki are exactly the same then they need to see the Gilanis speeches, Imran khan parties speeches in favor of Sarikiestan (Shah mahmood Qureshi), MQM speeches, Maulna fazalur Rehman speeches...All parties are in favor of Sarikistan province, but Punjab ruler Nawaz Sharif idiot would dieing and diplomatically going...Those who says that PPP is getting voting bank...shame to them who thinks like that, as by making province they are making happy 11% of Sarikis and making annoyed (rather death to prejudiced Pakistanis punjabis) 46%...So is this making sense....
I can not understand when all Pakistans parties and their constituion accepted Sarikie as a separate language what's wrong with other side of Punjab...Yes we know that most language in this area are getting more close to each other as we use more hindi/urdu word in our native languages...but if we put pure sariki language, It would be hard to decipher even to sarikis...
