Why the liking of Punjabis are more to Hindi newspapers than Punjabi newspapers.
Punjab kesari (Hindi newspaper) with a circulation of 6.4 lakh copies. of Jalandhar edition and 4,50,000 copies of Delhi edition has maximum sale in Punjab. Jag Bani Punjabi paper being printed from Jalandhar and Ludhiana has only circulation of 3.1 lakh copies and Ajit and other daily newspapers combined circulation is 3 lakh copies.
Kindly elaborate whether there is any role of hindus that Punjab Kesari (Hindi newspaper) is being read more than double in Punjab. Whether the maximum circulation of Hindi Paper is due to Hindus. Why not the circulation of Punjabi newspapers could not increase in Punjab.
Hindi is the most liking language because: When the question of employment is concerned:
The question is based on employment factor. The lecturers are appointed in professional colleges due to the fluency in Hindi/ English language. You sincerely tell me whether the lecturer who has fluency in Punjabi language will be appointed in Professional colleges in Punjab or those have fluency in Hindi language. Unfortunately we are still sticking on Punjabi and Hindi. We are not concerned with the prospects of the students. Whether you will find more books in Punjabi language on technical subjects.
While submitting the resume for a job. Whether the candidate will admit to provide lecture in Punjabi/ English or Hindi/ English. In which language the interviews are being conducted in Punjab.
In which language the multi-national companies’ employees conversate in Punjab.
Madam, now I come to your points: You admit that the situation in remote areas is not that worse means that is not GOOD. To whom you will consider great Hindi lovers. Whether more than 75% students those conversate in Hindi. Why the people of urban areas in Punjab conversate in Hindi. All of them are not Hindus. I have previously mentioned that the villagers or rural background students are not so influenced in Hindi language. But in the class 100% students conversate in Hindi even though they used to conversate in Punjabi language in their home.
I have already admitted that you can conversate in Punjabi language with 90% candidates in Punjab but why not they conversate usually in Punjabi language. I don’t deny that we can’t conversate in Punjabi language in Punjab, why not the students have liking in conversation in Punjabi language whereas they are conversant in conversation in Punjabi language.
The point is that what is the reason that why the students, teachers, staff and general public are more inclined to Hindi language than Punjabi.
Regards,
Rajneesh | Rajneesh ji,
Guru Fateh.
I have no idea why you are in denial. The reason there is more Hindi Newspapers' circulation in Punjab is because Punjabi Hindus have rejected and denied their Punjabihood which is a shameful thing. It has been a well planned agenda by the Hindus to do that in Punjab for many years. How many members of your own family read, write or speak Punjab at the dinner table although I am sure all know the latter?
I have been reading your posts for quite sometime now and I have never seen you been so blindsided by your own subjective truths.
Hindus in Punjab refuse to speak Punjabi at home where as Muslims in Punjab, in Pakistan, love to speak Punjabi and do speak their native language because they consider themselves proud Punjabis although they do not know Gurmukhi, unlike their Hindu counterparts in Punjab, India.
I would not toot my own horn about how many languages I speak besides Punjabi, but rejecting one's own mother tongue is rejecting one's own culture. It is rejecting the soil that feeds the person. The result of that is that one becomes a predator rather than a cultivator of harmony in which language plays a great role, in this case Punjabi.
The more languages one learns, the better adaptability and acceptance one cultivates of different cultures/religions/peoples.
Rejection of the language of the land one was born in, is the rejection of the self with an ulterior agenda.

The first Guruji’s name is Baba Baba Guru Nanak Sahib Ji Sahib Ji Dev ji, who is the founder of Sikhism. The Second Guruji’s name is Guru Angad Devji, The third Guruji’s name is Guru Amar Dass ji, The fifth Guruji’s name is Guru Arjan Dev ji and so on.
Bhai Gurdas, Bhai Mardana’s name are immortal.
Sixth Gurji name is Guru Hargobindji,
Guru Teg Bahadurji, Guru Angad ji, Details of Gurujis with their names. 1 Guru Nanak Dev jI 15 April 1469 20 August 1507 22 September 1539 69 2 31 March 1504 7 September 1539 29 March 1552 48 3 5 May 1479 26 March 1552 1 September 1574 95 4 24 September 1534 1 September 1574 1 September 1581 46 5 15 April 1563 1 September 1581 30 May 1606 43 6 19 June 1595 25 May 1606 28 February 1644 48 7 16 January 1630 3 March 1644 6 October 1661 31 8 7 July 1656 6 October 1661 30 March 1664 7 9 1 April 1621 20 March 1665 11 November 1675 54 10 22 December 1666 11 November 1675 7 October 1708 41 11 Guru Granth Sahib n/a 7 October 1708 n/a n/a Now we come to the point
What do you mean to say that when Mughals ruled India then Arabic was the language of Government of India. What is the coincidence with your this quote. I have quoted the names of all Gurujis. Which is authentic. The name of Gurujis will remain if we name any institutions with name of Guru Nanak Dev ji What is in ASA KI WAR. The political head of India is S. Manmohan Singh, How can you say that Hindu lobby is powerful. How can you say that the Hindu lobby is strong in Punjab. Hon’ble Badal has done for the upliftment of Punjabi it is most disgusting that you have called him TRAITOR. I have never heard about Guru Granth Sahib University. Where the word of Sikh is in this name which has been opposed. Who says the word SIKH so racist and evil?? The irrelevant material is being highlighted by yourgoodself as the name of Guru Nanak Dev Ji what is the matter of hue and cry on this name. I could not understand where the word Sikh is in the name of university of Guru Nanak Dev ji which has been removed.
Again you are making illogical theory that How many DAV colleges of BJP are affiliated to GNDU. Kindly let me know what is the criteria of affiliation to particular university. All the colleges from Amritsar up to Phillaur are affiliated to Guru Nanak Dev University. There is no pick and choose policy framed by the Government that one can choose the affiliation with particular university. You have been misguided by certain previous conceptions. There is no such option like DAV College Amritsar or DAV college Jalandhar to affiliate to Punjab University or Punjabi University. Why you are trying to misguide the public, I could not understand. How the point of HATE arise in affiliation to the university. Whereas there is no such criteria to opt. How you extracted your own version that DAV colleges are not affiliated to GNDU. DAV College Amritsar and DAV College Jalandhar is affiliated to GNDU due to the areas of affiliation being bifurcated by Punjab Government. Not only DAV college all the colleges of Amritsar, Jalandhar, Phagwara, Phillaur are affiliated to GNDU. All the colleges of Ludhiana will be affiliated to Punjab University, Chandigarh. And all the colleges surrounding to Patiala are affiliated to Punjabi University Patiala. The question was highlighted that why the circulation of Punjab Kesari with latest circulation details: Average 6,93,266 copies and on Sunday 7,79,144 copies and of Jag Bani Average 3,10,571 copies on average and 3,33,295 copies on Sunday. The current figure is that in the last 3 years the circulation of Hindi newspapers in Punjab has circulation of more than double because the new groups like Jagran, Amra Ujala, Daink Bhaskar are the new entrants in the last 3 years. The cirulation of Hindi newspaper has doubled in three years but Punjabi newspapers circulation could not increase even 5%, this is the point of consideration. You have tried to hurl a new trump card by diverting the attention to other side. How the point of racists arise. The question not the conversion of Hindus to Islam but the question is regarding Hindi and Punjabi language. Regards, Rajneesh |

I don't know about other readers, but on my end, this discussion is turning on specifics and losing sight of the original issues. Maybe I myself am mistaken as to what these issues correctly are.
How many others find themselves confused?
Was not the original point that by losing one's mother tongue one loses one's identity, one's sense of legacy, one's image as reflected in literature and culture?
Does it really matter what the statistics are concerning the numbers of speakers or readers in Hindi, Punjabi or English? It is an historical truth that those who conquer either by war or economics impose a language on the vanquished. And for those who are conquered, and who retain the language that gives them a connection to their roots, are more, not less likely, to overcome cultural humiliation. It is a question of who can hold his/her head up high in the knowledge of who one is, and where one is from, and what collective history binds a soul together. Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=36846
Correlations can be negative or positive when a language is blotted out or when it is retained, no matter how. And social scientists have studied the correlations between cultural/linguistic dominance and social and economic disintegration.
Thus, we have native american tribes in the US who over a century were shorn of language and culture, and their lives on reservations are plunged into high rates of depression, economic despair, drunkeness and suicide. And we observe the kind cultural integration that persists among the Punjabi speaking diaspora who have feet in two cultures or more at one time and are confident in both. Yet, in Punjab no less we see increasing rates drunkeness and suicide.
p/s Some random questions about linguistic and cultural dominance, that have next to nothing to do with the ability to communicate cross social platforms in India. I have to ask why one cannot find Punjabi on Rosetta Stone? Why there are no decent translation pages for Punjabi to English on Babel and elsewhere? And the big question: Why there is not even one Punjabi to English machine translation platform under development in the brilliant IT corridors of India, but yes it exists for Punjabi to Hindi and not the other way around? Today I can have expert translation by online vendors from Punjabi to English, but I must pay by the page, and it is expensive. | | The following members appreciate spnadmin Ji for the above message. | |
