Also, she runs a non profit organization Nishan for training teachers and mental health counselling. She is deeply involved with issues of public interest.
In this session, she will reflect on the culture of Punjab on the Indian side.
Actually your Indian Guest lives in big city and no relation with rural Punjab(Indian) here in rural Punjab every village has vaisakhi mela, Kite flying on Basant. Giddha in every village marriages. I have no idea how she is so disconnected from ground realities. Please invite someone who knows village and lives there.
Yes I felt the Pakistanis spoke better Punjabi than the host.
You're right but she's well read and knows much about what she talks
I like the host most... bindi on her forehead looking good, she is following the Indian subcontinent culture.

This only proves that simplistic nonsense can fool you
Indian Punjab did the right thing by making people study and communicate in Punjabi language. In contrast, Pakistani Punjab is suppressing Punjabi language by imposing Urdu.

It’s sorry state of mind for Dr Ranjit Powar, we r still very much celebrating our festival and Giddha and Bhangra is very common with every Punjabi, hopefully she’s never visited out of Chandigarh
Exactly, she spoke as if she is there to tow only paki narrative, she tries hard to align Indian Punjab with the toxicity of Pak Punjab. Pak Punjab curtained the celebration of Baisakhi under the influence of islam she swiftly chucked the question. If this is to be serious discussion needs more honest intellect.
@@72087hj Her response to the question about kabaddi was very telling. How could she not know that there is a kabaddi league in India and kabaddi has never been as popular as it is today in India? She made several misleading and outright incorrect comments.

The guest speaker is misleading when she says that Islam was no factor in the violence of Punjab partition. But for Islam there is no Pakistan, no dichotomy of momin and kafir and no killings of Punjab.
Please understand, it's their compulsion that they can't blame Islam for this & they've to make sure that Pakistani youth don't get Misled about the incidents that happened then even though these are FACTS!!
Islamic cult is the reason for everything bad in Punjab. This cult must be eradicated and banned.
Maharashtrian Gujarati Muslim leader Jinnah divided Punjab and Bengal for his personal power ambitions.

True. He had nothing to do with punjabis or bengalis. He never expressed pain on the deaths of punjabis. He was making a fake country.

Don't believe in what is being told or what is visible. Punjabis in general hate almost every other community in the Indian subcontinent.
Extremely Delighted Listening to Ranjit Powar, Sanu bhi gurumukhi seekh layi hai, ਜਯ ਭਾਰਤ ਜਯ ਪੰਜਾਬ 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thankyou for discussing about PUNJAB and PUNJABI. We need such deliberations and discussions.
I don't agree with Dr.Ranjeet, on Indian punjab baisakhi is celebrated with lots of fun and frolic, kite flying etc. Also events like Lohri and other festivals are still celebrated in big way. Bhangra and giddha is very well entranged in society colleges have bhangra and giddha competitions. Lots of professiona bhangra, giddha and dhol troupes have big business in weddings and marriages. Even in Delhi most of punjabi wedding have jago and giddha troupes performing. Dr Ranjeet sounded very negative and she has not given any right answer to questions asked. She sounded very very pessimistic
Saheed Bhagat Singh belongs to Lahore Punjab but he is celebrated as freedom fighter in India only . Plus Punjabi music rules in India. We have soldiers of Punjab Regiment. Punjabi culture get promoted in Bollywood. If Punjabi culture is known well throughout India a big contribution has been made by film producer Karan Johar and his uncle Yash Chopra. Both belongs to Punjabi family. See their films you will get to see mostly related to Punjabi family and culture. We already have the great economist Dr Manmohan Singh as PM of India . The list is long . In fact in whole India only Punjabi people , food and culture are loved and respected by most Indians .
I am sorry to say the indian lady on the show is ignorant about the status of Punjabi in the indian side of punjab Punjabi is the official language of punjab government all official work is done in Punjabi and is taught compulsory in schools
Me Maharashtra se hu aur mere city me sirf ek Punjabi family he or o Apne gharme Punjabi he Bolte he Baki city me dusre logo ko o Hindi me Bolte he jabki Maharashtra ki official language Marathi he but us Punjabi family ko force Nahi karta ki o Marathi bole. we Marathi ok with Punjabi or hindi language because these are Indian languages like Marathi.
I am Hindu and proud on Sikh community ਸਤਿ ਸ਼੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ from Maharashtra India 🇮🇳🙏
yes not one should force anyone to speak any particular language. Punjab main radical (khalistani) language ka issue banate hai..but they are less than 5 percent .

It's beautiful discussion. Pakistan is slowly but steadily moving in a good direction
Realy it is good for Pakistan, a programme for realising the mutual interests wiilingly not forcefully. 👌👌
Complete eyewash technique to get views and we are getting mislead
I doubt that Pakistan is heading in the right direction. When the choices are b/w a nut job like Imran Khan and Bilawal Bhutto then you question and ponder over the fate of the country!
😅... Such people always existed... So don't anticipate any change.
The guest appears not up-to the insightful and courageous line of interviewing on cultural erasure, especially the burying of Punjabi language in Pakistan Punjab. Instead the guest appears more of a timid apologist for the erasure.
How could Pawar equate the situation of Punjabi in Pakistan and India? It's extremely dishonest. And for her to glorify the supposed Punjabi culture in Canada is ridiculous. Canadian Punjabis are known for their crass, loud, and over-the-top ostentatious culture.
Just loved the discussion ❤️❤️
Why Punjabi has two different scripts ? We Indian Bengalis and Bangladeshis are different political identities but still we follow same language and script.
Here read the history part - en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurmukhi
Punjabi on Arabic script is far older than Gurumukhi
@@ssam7384 that starts roughly from Baba Fareed. What was before that ?
@@ssam7384
Yes, just like Arabia is far older and more civilized.
Arabic script doesn't even contain characters for over 70% of sounds for Indic languages, so how the hell can it be better?
Very well said at 03:01. Thanks for enlightening and illuminating our hearts and eyes with the knowledge and NOOR of the PUNJABI culture.
The noor which was annihilated in Western Punjab ( modern day Pakistani Punjab) due to Two nation theory & its disastrous consequences.
She didnot do justice to the topic. Indian Punjab has strong punjabi culture. All signboards are in Punjabi gurmukhi. Bhangra,giddha are alive. When light goes out in hostels, girls do Giddha. Chandhigarh is cosmopolitan. There Hindi English is there. Educated Punjabis speak all three languages fluently. Speaking Punjabi is not considered inferior. City Punjabi is refined. Even foreigners visiting punjab learn the language in two days,thats how much its spoken.
She is in Pakistan that's why.
No center is trying to impose hindi in everything
Lol
Ranjit Kaur ji tussi Great ho. Jeo Hazaroon saal.
Wonderful discussion by two wonderful wise women .... Was listening to the discussion with lots of curiosity... Kudos to blackhole .... Love from India
Wonderful experience. Such kind of discussions add value to thinking. Keep it up.
Loved the discussion .Thank you ❤
Thanx 4 this session
Was interesting to see that the host was wearing a small bindi.
Wah live from india
In india there is professional kabbadi league at national level and players are earning handsome amount of money
Poor representation for Indian Punjab.. the lady is an activist with extreme leftist mindset.. just google her once and track her recent activities
God bless you good start
I'm Indian and quite frankly Dr Powar sounds really confused.
Ma'am acting as the host has more clarity.
Gurmukhi script is part of Sharda scripts. READ ABOUT SHARDA SCRIPTS.
To know about Script prevalent in Baba Farid's time, ie 8th Century, the records and inscriptions are NOT in any script derived from Arabic or Later Persian. The scripts prevalent in Indus Basin and North Western Sub continent had been derived from Kharoshti Script.
READ ABOUT SHARDA SCRIPTS.
waddiya discussion. Loved it!
Very interesting discussion. Was surprised by the thought and knowledge levels of some audience members!
The anchor questions are also extremely illuminating
Indo Aryan is a flawed concept, which western society especially europeans made to put themselves at higher position. And now saying they brought vedic culture is completely UNTRUE.
Ma'am you need to revise your concepts
Who where Shak hun
Indra and other deities of the indo aryans were common even among ancient Hittites and Persians.
Ranjit ji, you mentioned Punjab needed Industrialization but then how do you support Kisaan movement? Government was trying to bring industries and farmers to take indian agriculture to next level..
We are not anti industry
But look after the owners of the land too
She didmt do justice to the topic. Punjabi is an identity in India. They are proud of their identity,language
They consider bhangra their identity
Girls wearing skirts, go to village in suits,marriages in suits. They know their culture
Exactly she could have at least given bothe perspective of kisaan movement but she choses the populist one in order show her left liberal sympathy....
Great show ❤from California
Most Indian guests or peoples when talking to Pakistani media or people refrain or hesitate they may not to offend or just to please, they don’t call out short comings of Pakistan or imposing Islam ideology on their people and negative impact of it on the other hand they downplay good things happening in India just to please just even out the comparison between the two. These is actually counter productive to the purpose of the discussion.
Purpose of discussion is to spread peace not to provoke people who have invited you.
@@naqashlatif9153 sir... He isn't referring to religion only but he also pointing out the dishonesty of indian guests who say things in a way just to please the hosts...

Very shallow, discussion seems done to flatter only the audience, she intentionally chucked question on baisakhi when asked how islam has suffocated it, since the audience is Pakistani. She said in Indian side baisakhi celebration is over since host says it's over in Paki side, which is completely wrong forget Punjab even in delhi it's celebrated very well. When she speaks about DNA she speaks we may have persian or Turkish blood in us, why madam why not, tamil or ahom? She tells the courage of immigration that punjabis have is superior even Gujaratis don't have same this is laughable, Punjab was always under attack and people had to migrate often, it never flourished for trade so people had inclination towards moving to other place, Guj was more safe more rich on trade deals, in-spite of it the cult travelled and did that more than Punjabis driven sheer out of entrepreneurial intent that race is having, there are many such points she talks like more as an ambassador of all goody things of Punjabi culture but to do so, she murder of facts and rational.
Gujju are always cowards and darpook people ,you can see your Somnath temple and it’s destruction .in india army hardly any gujju are there.see most of the corporate fraudsters are gujju
Punjabis have a habit of dragging other societies, other cultures, other peoples into their hollow intellectual discussions to show how superior they are. Their qualities are unique to them but their shortcomings are "seen in other societies as well".
Partition divided Punjabis. Bhindranwale further divided Punjabis.
Bro people who are not punjabi can never understand punjabi
@@SimranDhillon186 no need to keep oinking these meaningless phases and better be prepared for formation of khalistan in its original homeland with Lahore as it's capital where every begairat behaya mughaliya musalminas wil again be doing there daily halala like there 6 saala ammi hazrat Ayesha in badshahi and every halala ka adda masjid and madrassa with khalistanis 😂😂
Hindus of Indian Punjab divided Punjab bcuz they betrayed their mother tongue for hindi.
@@SimranDhillon186 gobind Singh was not punjabi,arjan dev was not punjabi,hara singh nalwa and panj pyare was not punjabi....so they probably didn't understand punjab right??? 😂😂😂
I found the host more knowedgable than the guest
Agree
You are also intellectually bankrupt.🤣🤣
Exactly. You nailed it.
Totally agree.
There is hell and heaven difference between the culture of Indian Punjab and Pak Punhab. Indian Punjab still maintains the plurality as it was before independence. And, all stay happily there. But look at Pak Punjab. Now, it has negligible to zero non muzlim population. So Pak Punjab lost all the punjabi customs as those are declared " haraam".
Not sure why the Indian guest is uncomfortably digesting this when the host is pushing all non sense.
Indian punjab is wonderful, beautiful and so is the ppl..
Well said.
Ah! Well put.
That's bcz almost all the time these indian guest of there's are 3rd class like anguthachaap jahil Nabi Muhammad and that's why they are invited by these begairat behaya rape jihad ki najayaz paidaish ganduudin namazi aashiq gay rasool Muslim pakis and as they have no talent of there own they keep whining whatever these bhikharistani Pakistanis want them too just to get some recognition which otherwise they will never get in there entire pathetic miserable life
Sada sohna Punjab💕
Nice discussion 🎉🎶
At school level in India there is 3 languages formula, mother toung, Hindi and English are taught. In Indian Punjab medium of instruction is also Punjabi with Gurumukhi script.
Same is in states, like Maharashtra- Marathi, West Bengal - Bengali, Tamilnadu- Tamil, etc.
Great job. At the same time we the children of Punjabi Pakistanies can not speak Punjabi because people will call us 'Peyndo', can not speak Urdu properly because people will ask me if i am from Karachi ! can not speak English because the Islamic people will call me an agent of Kufaar and I can not speak or Understand the Quranic Arabic because my modren friends will call me the agent of Taliban.
This lady either too naive or she didn't wanna express, punjab in india thriving culturally, most of them can't speak hindi!
Most of us can, no hate towards hindi, but we give preference to Punjabi.
Good discussion. The host lady has retro looks and outfit of 90s. Great!

You don’t need a long debate on this.
Punjab on either side has had no culture. Only agriculture!
did she accept the so called indo aryan inavsion , mam it is completely myth which was put forward by british because they could not accept indians are much scientific and smarter and older then them

LOVELY DISCUSSION. Hope black hole will bring such discission in future also.
In India each and every states has its own language and we Hindus respect each and every language and culture and this is the reason we are united even though each state is distinct in it own..
Pakistan has to stand up ..
Accept faults and then move on
I am an Indian from South.
Can understand Hindi, Hindusthani and urdu to great extent and could follow the episode.
This Ranjeeta Ma'am does not know in depth the culture of Punjab.
Why they changed their religion no discussions except culture contributions from different religion as they arrived discussed superficially.
She neither understands Veda or the varna system how it has to be applied to individual himself and not to the society or based on birth.
Explanation will become too long sufficient to satly all four varnas exist in the individual himself only.
Can there be discussions with people who have more insights than the Macaulay educated ones
I am watching Black Hole for last few days. Why the audience is so less ?

"BLACK HOLE" The rays of enlightenment
IT is very हार्टनिंग to listen Punjabi, but they are very apologetic to speak। This is the reason of Urdu domination।
Because of a false prophet and a sex education book thies people lost their path
Consensus of historians says, early Vedic literature (originally transmitted orally in an extremely guarded manner) came about within the area, later ruled by Raja Ranjeet Singh. The Western part of Punjab used the Kharoshthi script during the Buddhist period (approximately 300BCE-300CE). Around 200BCE a sister script, Brahmi, appeared which later took over Kharoshthi by 300CE, especially in the eastern part of Punjab onward to UP.
Although Baba Farid's (1100-1200) work came through oral tradition until Baba Nanak documented it in his Baanis, his education was in Farsi traditions. Farsi script with some extensions to include local sounds later on called Shahmukhi. Just before and during the time of Baba Farid, a variety of scripts from Brahmic family were prevalent. Among them were Śāradā and Lahnda (Western). Baba Nanak most likely wrote his Baani(s) in Lahnda script.
One disappointing thing I found about Shahmukhi and Gurumukhi that they do not support the phonetic of Mahji Punjabi, which is the most prominent dialect of central Punjab. They do cover the Saraiki sounds though. For example Gahta (loss) can be written in Punjabi scripts but the Kahta (also a loss in Mahji) cannot. Readers just assume that a written Gahta (گھاٹا) is a spoken Kahta (کاہٹا). Can someone correct me if I am wrong?

But then Indira Gandhi released all 93,000 rapists and killers in 1972, thus turning victory into a defeat.
Wow rajasthani but loved this whole debate
The host was so beautiful, what a topic for discussion is excellent, most of the talk I didn't understood because of Punjabi language but being an Indian can understand the overall talk so beautiful & informative it was please keep it up.
Jay Rajputana
It appears that instead of understanding what is happening in Indian Punjab time was wasted on extraneous issues and somewhere trying to tell Pakistani Punjab culture. That was not the agenda.
Exactly. Because the so valled expert was so scared to talk openly, she seemed bored. She didnt have the complete picture. Phulkari of patiala
Royal Family. Business,Trade, airport
Its modernising but terrorism has harmed punjab economy. Canada is the youth dream. Australia, uk. Not village. Their dreams are international. A craze to go abroad. Youth is very educated. Aware. Smart. Ladies are more independant in Indian punjab. Sikhs have full freedom. They do what they want about their religion. No interferance from govt. Sikhs dominate punjabi culture in punjab. Hindus are not farmers. They are in trade

You need to discuss political and religious aspects
Very superficial discussion. The lady had no enthusiam to talk. Not much knowledge. Very superficial knowledge
Who is the host
The problem is islam. Leave islam, be Insan.
Don't know what this Ranjit lady is saying. Perhaps it's because she is from chandigarh, but my goodness, in Indian Punjab we celebrate all the punjabi festivals. Even the major melas are also celebrated and many prominent singers come there too. In weddings, especially Sikh weddings, all the customs are observed. I am from the punjabi heartland of Amritsar and I can attest that the guest speaker has no clue about happenings in Indian Punjab.
Not only punjab sir... Wherever sikh/punjabis lives... They keep their culture alive... And I am from kanpur... Punjabi culture is predominant
Punjabi music rules in India. Punjabi culture has been made popular in India and worldwide through Bollywood. Punjabi culture is promoted by Hindi films too . A big contribution has been made by Karan Johar and his uncle Yash Chopra who are Punjabi themselves. Who doesn't love to eat or not aware of Punjabi food in India ?
@@Mira-pm3ni Exactly. Was really shocked to hear what Dr Powar was saying. It's as if she has no clue on the subject matter.
She is typical Punjabi, who has drowned their own state because of their extreme pride and entitlement, but blame the country for it
Warda Shehzadi, the host is smarter and more knowledgeable.
Very good discussion … what does “dum Karan” what Ms Ranjit is mentioning she saw in a village in gujaranwala at the fag end of the discussion
Intoxication.
Faith healing
The man who is talking about two different administrative unit he is right. Indian Panjab has been split in to Four administrative units rather.
Panjab, Haryana, Himachal are full fledged States and a uninion territorry called Chandigarh.
Out of the four Haryana and Himachal are predominantly Hindi speaking . At least their lingua franca is Hindi for sure, not Panjabi. (Further they have some small indigenous ethnic groups which have their own native tribal languages pertaining to totally different linguistic families.
So he got it right. The administrative divide has had a major cultural impact on the Old greater Indian Panjab as well .
For example Himachal and Haryana share almost Common folklore , dress, cousine, music with Panjab. and can understand Panjabi Language as well , but unfortunately can't read Gurmukhi .
I'm from Himachal, I can understand spoken Panjabi but can't read written Panjabi . As Gurmukhi is not taught in our Schools.
I think she is very defensive talking about India. I will ask the Pakistani anchor to actually come & see our festivities. I am failing understand why the Indian lady is not speaking the bitter truth who smiled the Punjab culture.
Who is the host?
Warda Shehzadi
Decide vast variations cultures attitudes norms historical perspective civilisation interesting invaders. Beautiful punjabi
She is very wrong in saying that Aryans invaded India. Aryan invasion is fake theory concocted by imperial Whites. She should not spread fake information. I am also Punjabi.
"How do you do" now please speak and observe yourself by speaking the above greetings in your mother tongue , Bengali, Marwari,Telgu,Tamil, Gujarati , Urdu ,pashtu Sindhi or Punjabi,see the emotional connect .you will enjoy
Emotions can be delivered and feelings are best the more you increase your vocabulary and words you use, the words will bring the best emotions and poetry will take you high ,only because of language and words you use in the situation , mother tongue is the emotional connect..
But if you bring in Greed and selfishness indifferent to others than you are lower on culture side, and other states and people will not accept you ,so you have to raise your humanity score too and if you are loosing on this in modern times,you need back to your roots and read the writings of Bulle Shah,Waris ,Good Punjabi novelists and poetry,you will find your culture and will help you,so know your mother tongue...to live and enjoy culture..
