Without hearing the context, one cannot take sides, but Punjabi is seen as a lesser language now, sadly. And the Punjabi parents are to be blamed for this, we tell our children from a young age to not speak in Punjabi, when all other ethnic groups proudly own their mother tongue. It's sad that a beautiful language like Punjabi is slowly dying.
We speak only Punjabi at home -- mom tried to steer us to Urdu, only issue was one would end up sounding like a Mujra like Bilawal.
