I'm half Punjabi, can't really speak it but (samajh sakta, but proper bol ni sakta)
This area saw the worst of the batwaara time violence which is sad but not surprising, Pnjabi, Pnjabi hota hai lol)
all/mostly Indian Punjabi muslims ran south to Dilli, UP (where there was already a big established Muslim presence) and Dilli side.. very very rare here, the Indian Muslim Punjabi.
Little wonder then, but.. k riots, and other horrible this kind of thing based fights/riots are mostly in the north. Also in Bengal, but that's a different thing. East coast Muslims ka sab kuch alag hai, as a Dilliwala (essentially), I'd be way more 'at home' in Lahore than in Dhaka, or Kolkotta for that matter.
