I know Balochi and Pashto are used as medium of education in Balochistan and KPK. I myself studied in Sindhi Medium Schools. Why they don’t use Punjabi as a medium in Punjab?

I’m not sure whether Punjabi is taught as a language at school level. Here in Sindh we were taught English, Urdu, Sindhi as well as Arabic languages at school level. Recently they were going to introduce Chines language too

In Pakistan, Punjabi is more of a dilect and has no grammar or alphabets (like sindhi has its own), so you can teach punjabi history and literature, but not a language.
