:dateline:Accusing the AAP convener and Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal, of oppressing Punjabi language in Delhi, the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee has announced to initiate a campaign named ‘Maa Boli Satkar Lehar’ in Delhi.

Addressing a press conference on September 11, the DSGMC President Manjit Singh GK said that the AAP led Delhi state government was conspiring to suppress Punjabi in the national capital. Accusing the Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal of knowingly delaying the recruitment of Punjabi language teachers, S. Manjit Singh GK said that the Delhi state government was violating the language act passed in favor of his mother tongue.

Manjit Singh GK has appealed to the entire Delhi resident Punjabi community to use Punjabi while communicating in their homes and offices and advertising their products.

He further said that the Punjabi language is often seen as a language of Sikhs by common masses but that this was totally wrong. He added that in fact the Punjab language is spoken by a wide section of other communities including Hindus and Muslims.

DSGMC General Secretary S. Manjinder Singh Sirsa said that the DSGMC was ready to build up pressure on the Delhi state government to reinstate the status of Punjabi in the national capital.

  1. I urge any Punjabi leaders reading this to get of their backside and do something about it
    We Punjabi’s are fighters not arse lickiers, if we lose our language then we lost everything.

  2. Punjabi language is in decline in Punjab that’s a fact. The state and private schools teach Hindi as first Language why?

    All Punjabi regardless of religion or creed must pull together, otherwise we will lose our mother tongue.

  4. Sikhs should not abandon their mother tongue, sadly i find many sikh immigrants from around Delhi speak in hindi, and some of them even wear caps while keeping uncut hair.

  5. Well said.
    This Sikh guy is an paid agent of EMPIRE.
    Out to divide Punjabi Society.
    So many Sikhs love and worship God Ram and Krishna.
    He thinks he is some sort of Gold standard Sikh who is a role model for us to follow.
    Please say with PRIDE oh Punjabi brother
    Hum HINDU hai or Rahenga.
    Jai Sri Ram
    Jai Sri Krishna

  6. @All
    With due respect Punjab is language of Punjabi’s and not only sikhs, Its a language of Hindu’s, Muslims, don’t forget Baba Bulley Shah, Shiv Kumar Batalvi, who had contributed so much for the language, don’t spread hatred. I belong to hindu religion born in punjab yet prefer to go to Gurudawara, I find hindi very difficult and punjabi is in my blood my mother tongue it doesn’t know my religion, my roots are connected with punjab, punjabi and punjabiyat. And yes I won’t say shit head sikhs or muslims, no religion teaches abusing another religion.

  11. You’re spot on there surinder kaur ?But them Hindi diaper dudes don’t have the confidence without sikhs , so they want us to learn their hindi language to make them feel secure from their insecurity religion and culture.

    I say Punjabi, English and french in every sikh home. We sikhs need to up their sikh international game in politics and education ?

  12. Well said Raj. Neither should the Punjabi Generation born abroad have to know Hindi – Hindus can keep Hindi we stay with Punjabi and Gurmukhi and proud of it.

  13. If you cant’t speak Punjabi then you should not be hired to work at Amritsar Airport. The airport might belong to the Indian government but it’s based in Punjab, so Punjabi should be the main language spoken.
    Most first and second generation Punjabi, who are born abroad don’t know Hindi.

    • Amritsar Airport is the first call of contact when arriving in India, I would like to be spoken in Punjab, as most Punjabi’s living outside India don’t understand Hindi.

      It should be a rule to when applying to work at the airport that you speak Punjabi otherwise how do people living abroad understand you?

      • Your statement is incorrect, not all India’s speak Hindi especially NRI, living aboard.

        If i land in Delhi than I understand that hindi should be spoken, but in Amritsar Airport majority of Punjabi’s use that airport, so Punjabi should be spoken as common courtesy, to the people using that Airport.

  14. AAI recruits personnels from all over the India.
    The Airport is the property of Govt of India and not Govt of Punjab.
    Hindi being an National language is spoken by whole of India.

  15. Why isn’t Punjabi been spoken at Amritsar Airport, All the security and police spoke personal spoke in hindi. One had a nerve to ask me why wasn’t t my children speaking hindi.

  16. I think we sikhs will stay with punjabi and computer lanuage and u Hindus can stay with your rice and curry , its a win win situation for both sides ?lol
