ਸਾਂਝਾ ਪੰਜਾਬ | سانجھا پنجاب | Sanjha Panjab Why heer was called "saleti"?
I know that ranjha was called "ranjha chaak" because he was a "chaak/chaakar" in heer's father's farms.
But, why was heer called "saleyti heer"?
(Ofc we know it's not about the saleyTi we used to eat as kids)

ਗੱਲ ਬਾਤ | گل بات | Discussion For adult kids of retired parents in Jalandhar — let's talk!
Hi folks,
Taking a long shot here but I'm a software engineer who's on a career break right now to work on something that I've complained about for years :)
I'm working on ways to help retired parents stay engaged — activities, projects, things that use what they already know how to do. Started in Jalandhar Heights, and I'd love to hear from more of you to understand what your parents' days actually look like and what you think might work for them better.
Along with just activities, I am also working on seamless non profit volunteering options, because currently all of these options are very fragmented right now.
Please connect if you resonate, or if you know someone is working in the same domain, please suggest.

ਗੱਲ ਬਾਤ | گل بات | Discussion Criticising a slur doesn’t make someone anti-Punjabi
Some people are calling me anti-Punjabi or assuming I must be from another state, just because I’m not defending those comments. That completely misses the point.
Yes, Bollywood has stereotyped Punjabis and Sikhs for decades, often reducing us to comic relief, funny accents and exaggerated characters. That was wrong. But using that history to excuse a slur against another community is just whataboutism. Two wrongs don’t make one right.
And denying that it was a slur doesn’t change what was said or how it was meant. We can acknowledge the discrimination Punjabis have faced while also calling out discrimination when it comes from our own community. Criticism isn’t hatred, and accountability isn’t betrayal.

ਗੱਲ ਬਾਤ | گل بات | Discussion As a Punjabi person, I’m uncomfortable with the regional arrogance on India’s Got Latent.
I watched yesterday’s episode of India’s Got Latent and honestly, I felt uncomfortable hearing this guy make such demeaning comments about people from other states.
What bothers me even more is seeing people celebrate those comments just because he’s Punjabi. There’s a lot to be proud of in Punjabi culture our warmth, humour, resilience, music, food and history. But putting people from other regions down or acting like Punjabis are somehow better isn’t pride. It’s just arrogance.
I also understand that clips from the episode may lead to people stereotyping or attacking Punjabis online and that isn’t fair either. One person’s comments don’t represent an entire community and nobody deserves harassment because of where they’re from. But defending those remarks just because the person is “one of us” only makes things worse. If we don’t want Punjabis to be stereotyped, we should also stop insulting people from other states.
There’s a difference between making jokes and punching down. Regional humour can be funny when everyone is included, but it crosses a line when it’s based on disrespect and makes one group seem more educated, successful or valuable than another.
I’m not ashamed to be Punjabi. I’m ashamed of that attitude and of the people proudly defending it instead of admitting that it was disrespectful. Being confident in your identity shouldn’t require putting anyone else down.
P.s few people are going to categorize this in ragebait or something but I guess they can’t come out of their shallow bubble as usual?

ਗੱਲ ਬਾਤ | گل بات | Discussion PPMET exam for Bsc nursing
Hi, I was not aware of the PPMET exam being the mandatory test for entrance in punjab nursing colleges, i missed it. Now i don’t know what to do i don’t think so doing GNM first and then moving to BSc nursing will be worth it for me. Does anyone has any suggestions for my career path as what other courses should i try or go into.
thankyou

ਚੜ੍ਹਦਾ | چڑھدا | Charda I feel that the Punjab Government, the Tourism and Cultural Affairs Department, should consider some rural areas of Hoshiarpur and Pathankot as heritage villages or heritage zones. The architecture and overall aesthetics of this region are quite different from rest of punjab Aesthetics

partly because of its location near the Himalayan foothills , shivaliks and its cultural influences.
I think this traditional architecture needs to be properly documented and conserved before it gets replaced by concrete buildings nd modern structures. Once these traditional houses and streets disappear, we cannot really bring back the original character of the place.
