Koi gal nahi bhaijaan. Aap ke liyae dhoond lenge chahe jahanum hi kyon na jaana padhe. Did any of your dads relative study in SP College Srinagar??

I don't really know anything about our relatives from over there except what my Grandpa used to tell us & he usually told us two things :

(i) most of our relatives came to Pakistan when Our Motherland was formed !

(ii) those few who remained moved out over the years to foreign countries to start their lives over & for a better future for their kids !

I'm a 3rd generation Kashmiri of Punjab after my Dad & my Grandpa & We the Kashmiris of Punjab who number quite a few hundreds of thousands are Kashmiri by blood & Punjabi by culture & linguistics which means that it wouldn't be fantastic to say that we're almost a separate Ethnic Group in its own !

And so when I look towards Kashmir I don't look towards it with some Romanticized Notions of my Ancestral Homeland or anything of the sort; I sh*t on Ethno-Linguistic Nationalism of any kind !

I look towards it as a Pakistani first, second & last who's ancestors came from Kashmir - Mana Watan eh Pakistan....Mani Jaan eh Pakistan !

Il find out as soon as possible.. thts a promise...

@Butchcassidy are dasua n mukerian near mehndipur? hes a naru rajput..

Its a pretty small area. Mukerian is north of Dasuya, say about 15 km. I think it should be towards Mukerian side. Hoshiyarpur had a lot of Rajput and Arain muslims before 47. Are Naru by any chance Dogras?

This site has the best South Asia maps. Really detailed at 1:250,000. These are US Army maps and though a bit dated (1958). I have found them to be useful. One can find most place names down to village level. This can be a handy reference in case one wants to find Topographic references too.

Dogras in Punjab speak Punjabi but those in Jammu speak Dogri (Its like a dialect of punjabi). Maika pukhraj used to sing in dogri
