Re: Musharraf proposes to name NWFP as ‘Khyber’
if you read history books the present day nwfp was virtually uninhabited.....since the period of mahmud of ghaznawai
most "hindko" speakers arrived after the sikhs took peshawar.....under the sikhs peshawar halved.....previous to that peshawar was a winter capital of afghanistan....
so the dominant language would have been persian and pashtu then......the sikhs hated pashtuns and drove them out....
