WE SHOULD PRMOTE OUR PUNJABI CULTURE: MUSIC,DANCES,THEATRE AND TALES OF THE FIVE RIVERS.
WE should promote folk tales as HEER RANJHA, MIRZA SAHIBAN,SASSI PUNNU,SOHNI MAHIWAL AND OTHER TALES FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF PUNJAB.

PUNJAB IS CLASSIC PLACE FOR OUR RELGIOUS SCHOLARS SUCH AS DATA GANJHA BAKSH, MIAN MOHAMMAD SAAB , SHAHDOLA PEER

THEN TALES OF BRAVE MEN LIKE JAGGA ,DULLA BHATTI, SULTAN RAHI, PHELWANS,AND NARANG SAHI FROM GUJRAT A LOCAL FOLK HERO WHO IS MENTINED IN BOOKS ON GUJRAT BY LOCAL WRITERS.
FOLK DANCES AS THEY SAY ORIGINATED FROM WEST PUNJAB WHICH IS PAKISTANI PUNJAB. BHANGRA AND SAILKOTI BHANGRA ORIGINATED FROM THE TRI DISTRCITS OF SAILKOT,GUJRAT AND GUJRANWALA AND SHEIKHUPURA. THEN SAMMI AND JHUMMER FROM SANDALBAR WHICH IS NOW KNOWN AS JHANG AND FAISALABAD.

PUNJAB IS MAGIC LAND, ALL PUNJABI GROW LIKE SHER, WE GREW MUCHATACHES DRINK LASSI, FIGHT LIKE TIGERS, WE WAS BORN TO BE WILD
JEVE PHOOLA VICH PHOOL NE GHULAB VARGA, DESA VICH DES NE PUNJAB VARGA

WE HAVE DHOLAY,MAHIYA,TAPPE,BOLIYAN AND OTHER FORMS OF SONGS. LIKE SUHAAG AND GHODIYAN SUNG ON WEDDINGS. THEN INSTRUMENTS LIKE CHIMTA,DHOL,DHOLKI,TUMBI ALSO KNOWN AS TUMBA OR KING AND ALGOZAY OR JORRI. AND OTHER FOLK INSTUMENTS TO MAKE MUSIC. WE HAVE A RICH CULTURE WHICH WE HAVE ALMOST FORGOTTEN. WE CAN STILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE WITH THE SCARCE SORCE WE HAVE LEFT.

THEN DANGS,GANDASAS WHICH ARE THE PRIDE OF MEN TOTALLY SYMBOL OF PUNJAB. THEN TEHMATS,DHOTIS,LACHA WHICH WERE WORN BY MEN AND WOMEN HAVE ALSO BEEN OLD CUTURE AS IT IS A DRESS OF PUNJAB. PROUD PUNJABI
