Are Seraiki people a sub group of punjabis or are they there own ethnicity?

[Imran Khan]

i am in rest i will answer letter

 

[s.k]

And now your tiny brain is compelling you to equate other ethnic groups to afghans or indians?

Without us there is no Pakistan either.. Panjab ki 32 bana lena.


Puttar do you see me complaining ? Personally I might be more successful than your entire familia.




And guess what an afghani is yet more proud of his ancestors,his culture and language than mummy daddy clowns who hate their own culture,language and traditions... Those most of whom were ruled by other people for the mast hundreds of years ... Those who didn't even make Pakistan who act as if Pakistan is their Baap ko jagir... Those who "fancy dreams" about a superiority complex towards other ethnic groups lol.


Beta .. First be proud of your "own" language before talking shyt about others and your false pride.

bas kar pagley rulayega kya

Seraiki is basically a language mixture of Punjabi and Sindhi and most spoken in areas at interface / borders of both the provinces. Seraiki is not an ethnicity but people speaking this language are called Seraiki also.

Saraiki is spoken in four provinces. In KPK, it's spoken in some village of Bannu, Lucky Marwat, D I Khan and in some neighboring South Waziristan. On eastern side of Kohat people speak dialect of Hinko which is more closer to Saraiki than Hindko.

Basically Punjabis are first defined from the region, Punj -ab land of five rivers. One is Punjabi firstly due to the region Punjab it belongs to, region of birth / settlement, then comes the Punjabi language, traditions, caste, sub groups like sariaki, potohari etc...hence so forth.




There is now a growing trend that everyone who was born, settled in Punjab starts to call himself/herself Punjabi. It is natural in Pakistan if u r Punjabi you are better overall...better job and living oppurtunities, better quotas etc... A lot of proud superiority complex and bravado history with alot of money has created this impression of Superior Punjabi. I feel are Punjabibis equal to Paktoon, Balochi, Sindhi, Kashmiri anyone. We are all muslims and humans first.

you forget to mention these points also

1. after you become punjabi you have free health insurance from punjab gov
2. free education from punjab gov until PDH
3. social security from punjab you will got 1 lakh rupees from punjab gov
4. if you have punjab made CNIC you can travel 195 countries visa free
5. punjab will provide cooked food to your house daily
6. after you become punjabi you will have shear in gov budget as bonus
7. you have free electricity and water supply 24/7
8. gov will pay your traffic violations
9. as a punjabi your name will be lucky draw to become president or prime minister of pakistan

that is why everyone rushing to become punjabi

Seraiki language certainly seems very different to Punjabi. Why not make that region a separate province ?

 

[livingdead]

In India, I have seen people from various castes claiming that they are Kshatriyas as each of them may have ruled the region at different points of time in the history.

Seems like in Pakistan every one wants to claim that they are Punjabi as it has the equivalency of being Kshatriyas.

never heard sindhis/pathans/baloch/muhajir claiming to be punjabi... may be people from GB...

I am Saraiki but not Punjabi
Nawab of Bahawalpur did huge mistake by merging Bahawalpur Province into Punjab,

 

[Kurlang]

I am a proud Saraiki and Riyasati, Nawab didn't made a mistake but he was a visionary. A letter written by him to Quaid-e-Azam in 1940 which goes like this " You(Jinnah) seem despondent regarding the dream of Pakistan. If your dream doesn't get fulfilled then let me assure you this (Bahawalpur state) is your Pakistan. I haven't seen more visionary then Nawab of Bhawalpur.

Punjabis don't mind. We are not Punjabis. Don't make us one of yours. Saraiki is a different language. Saraiki are the only people who have very little association outside pakistan, they call pakistan their motherland and are proud of it.

As far Saraiki provice/ Bhawalpur province is concerned. We saraikis have taken a peaceful route and will continue to do so as we feel that any destruction is actually destruction of our homeland Pakistan. Our foreather have contributed to it and we will continue as we are passionately in love with our country Pakistan. Yeh hamara watan.

Proud to be Pakistani, Proud to be Saraiki

Please note the actual spelling of bahawalpur state is "Bhawalpur". If any military guy has the chance to spend time in Bhawalpur cantt and seen old maps, he would know that military still sticks to old/actual spelling of state Bhawalpur

I grew up in Bahawalpur and Saraikis aren't too different from punjabis. Sweet language though.
