Maharaja
Ranjeet Singh made Lahore his capital and was able to
expand the kingdom to the Khyber Pass and also included Jammu and Kashmir , while keeping the British from
expanding across the River Sutlej for more than 40 years.
After
his death in 1839 the internecine fighting between the Sikhs and several rapid
forfeitures of territory by his sons, along with the intrigues of the Dogras
and two Anglo-Sikh wars, eventually led to British control of the Lahore Darbar
ten years later.
For
the British, Punjab was a frontier province, because Punjab had boundaries with Afghanistan and Persia . Therefore, the Punjabis, unlike
the Bengalis and the Sindhis, were not allowed to use their mother language as
an official language due to a fear of Punjabi nationalism therefore, the
British first introduced the Urdu as an official language in Punjab, including
Lahore, allegedly.
After
an era of Ranjeet Singh, during the rule of the British Empire in Punjab , British rulers imposed martial
law in Punjab . To govern Punjab, they brought
Urdu-speaking Muslim and Hindi-speaking Hindu bureaucracy and establishment
from UP, as a result Punjabi became a socially and politically depressed and
deprived nation due to the hegemony of Urdu and Hindi language, Gunga Jumna
culture. It resulted supremacy of UP-ites and UP-ite mindsets in policy making
and decision taking in national affairs and foreign relationship, managed,
motivated and sponsored by the British rulers to eliminate the Muslim, Sikh,
Hindu and Christian Punjabi’s into different religions and languages to secure
their rule over last captured land and martial race of India.
However,
during British rule in India , Muslim, Hindu, Sikh and
Christian Punjabi’s were still a nation because of common land, language,
culture and traditions. The religion was a personal subject, although,
religious dissimilarity was a natural reality. However, clans moreover,
communities were the institutions for social interaction and charity work.
Punjab was a secular regime and Punjabi was a respectable and honorable
language, culture and nation in India .
In
19th century due to politics of congress, dominated by Hindu and Hindi speaking
leaders, Hindu Punjabi started preferring Hindi language, culture and
traditions instead of Punjabi. Later on, Muslim Punjabi’s did the same due to
the influence of the Muslim League, dominated by the UP-ites Urdu speaking
Muslim leaders and presence of UP-ite Muslims in Punjab .
As a
consequence of preferring Hindi language, culture and traditions by Hindu
Punjabi’s and Urdu language, culture and traditions by Muslim Punjabi’s. The
characteristics of assimilation to accomplish the sociological instinct started
to switch from “Race to Religion” and “A Great Nation of Sub-Continent Got Divided
and Get Emerged into Muslim and Hindu States” as well as, started receiving the
reward of hate and regret from every honorable nation, in addition to the
humiliation, loathing and abuse from Hindi and Urdu speaking persons. This is
the punishment of Punjabi’s for not respecting their motherland, language,
culture and traditions. Anyway, Evolution exists everywhere, without realizing
that, it is at right direction or wrong.
For decades, Punjabi’s are in trouble because of lacking interest in Punjabi
nationalist politics, ignorant of the Punjabi language, unaware of the Punjabi
culture and uninformed to the Punjabi traditions because of preference to the
Urdu language, Gunga Jumna culture and UP-ite traditions.
Especially,
the Punjabi has migrated from the Indian side of Punjab to Pakistan were already under the domination
of Urdu language, Gunga Jumna culture and UP-ite traditions. Therefore, they
accepted and owned the hegemony of Urdu language, Gunga Jumna culture and
UP-ite traditions by surrendering the Punjabi language, culture and traditions.
In addition, they also facilitated and supported the UP-ites to dominate Urdu
language, Gunga Jumna culture and UP-ite traditions by means of suppressing and
eliminating the languages, cultures and traditions of original and actual entities
of Pakistan i.e. Sindhi’s, Balochi’s, Pukhtoon’s and Punjabi’s (due to many
factors).
Hence,
time has proved that; independence of Pakistan at the cost of splitting up Punjab with the blood of 2 million Punjabi’s.
Furthermore, lending support to UP-ites for domination of Urdu language, Gunga
Jumna culture and UP-ite traditions by means of suppressing and eliminating the
languages, cultures and traditions of original and actual entities of Pakistan i.e. Sindhi, Baloch, Pukhtoon and
Punjabi. In conjunction with, the hegemony of UP-ite Muhajir's in national and
foreign affairs bureaucracy, military and civil establishment, skilled and
technical professions, politics and media organizations, was a blunder by the
Punjabi's due to political immaturity, irresponsibility and pettiness.
