…Because there is no such systematic approach to preserve and promote Punjabi (in fact this holds true for all major regional languages of Pakistan). Punjabi has stopped being the language of local Literature and Poetry, that itself is always the first major sign of endangerment of any particular language.

Everyone in Punjab speaks Punjabi in various ways, but somewhere along the line, it has become a class issue. It’s a proud language of Rickshaw Walas and shopkeepers, but somehow the new generation of ‘burger kids’ don’t want to own it.

Do burgers matter? They never owned any of the languages of land including Urdu.
