There is a very large ' Lahoria community' in New Delhi.

The older generation unfortunately has gone.

I know about him. I have read his article in this regard. He was a young lawyer in Lahore. Used to live in Nisbet Road area back then.

Will try to dig them out

There are new colonies in New Delhi like Derawal Nagar & Gujranwala Town etc populated mostly by communities from what now is Pak.

Not to mention West Delhi including Karol Bagh, Patel Nagar,Punjabi Bagh, Rajinder Nagar etc comprising almost entirely of those who came from Pak.

My Grandfather first joined the freedom fighters of India from Lahore when he was only 9 years old, served 5 years in British jail when he was only 14 and returned to be a freedom fighter again. He fought the British until Indian became independent. Moved to Amritsar due to the unrest at the time. It's been 4 years since he departed to Heaven. He visited Lahore every year throughout his entire life till he couldn't breath anymore. I'v never known a great honest politician in my life ever since he been gone.
