Oxygen level is low in Pakistan or what

 

[PakhtunGuy]

alright now run along learn punjabi first

Lol. Why should I learn Punjabi?

Kalabagh, attock, talagang, sakesar is where almost everyone is Awan. They are like any Pakistani good and bad but by profession they are farmer or soldiers, open minded and woman education is very common. I know in my father's village near Talagang there were more school going girls than boys. In our area Awan is also synonym with land owner. Big land owners usually use the Sir name Malak commonly known as malik. Malik will usually lease his land to harris who will cultivate different corps on it and every corp is divided as 1/3rd to Malik and 2/3 to Harri so its a very just system no abuse of harris like other places. Low crime areas because chances are every home have one of more in service or retired soldiers and the woman are beautiful

I think awans form the majority in Potohar. They are also found in significant numbers in Rawalpindi and Jhelum districts. Golra in Islamabad is an Awan village for example. In general they are respected people.

As for your "punjabi comment". When did I imply that the chakwali dialects were punjabi? :S And in the dhanni dialect(spoken near chakwal), "saada" and "saadi" are very common words. Talagang dialect sounds different.

And as much as I find this whole race trolling light hearted and funny, please do not derail the thread folk.

What's Awan land? I am an Awan too but never been to Pakistan so i m just really curious to know about them..btw are they nice people or what? one friend told me that there is a place called Awan pati too

There's no such thing as "awan land". Awans form the majority in Talagang and Attock, but not in the absolute terms. As for how they are as people; they are very highly represented in the army and are mostly zamindar. They have a martial character generally, like many other tribes of the Potohar region.

Do Sikh jatts intermarry with the haryana, up jatts, or do you guys consider each other different?

No. We don't intermarry with Sikh Jatts. I think because of the religion but we intermarry with other Hindu Jats. The largest Hindu Jat gotra is Dahiya, followed by Malik.

Lots of sikh jatt actually have absorbed lots of Hindu jaats of Haryana, UP and Rajasthan because of east punjab border with Rahasthan and Haryana. But now days ofcourse they do not marry each other. I have no idea why @jatt+gutts is denying this.

"Pegged at more than 10 lakh in a city of about 50 lakh people, there is one migrant from UP or Bihar for every five Punjabi. ...

Like Ranjit Kumar, who calls himself Ranjit Singh these days, nearly 11% of people from Bihar and UP use Punjabi surnames. The 25-year-old, who came from Bihar to Sainian Bahurian village in Gurdaspur district to work in the farm of Mann Singh, is as much Punjabi as anybody around him.

Sukhram, too, is no exception. He came to Sunam in Sangrur from Purnea in Bihar, some 15 years ago to work for Mohinderpal Singh Dhindsa.

Now, with a beard and kara on his wrist, he is indistinguishable from the people around him in this nondescript town."

Punjab now a land of Bihari 'sardars' - The Times of India

Bihari sardars.

@jatt+gutts probably has a bit of bihari in him and he doesn't even know.

Never heard of that word before. Is it a dialect? I find all the hindko, seraiki dialects so intersting.

Kichri is just slang for mixture...we dont speak a pure language
