Bathinda: To get Punjabi its due, supporters of the language have decided to hold a protest outside Punjab governor’s house in Chandigarh on November 1. Punjabi language remained at the crossroads. “We are sure that a large number of persons will join hands on November 1 to raise voice for the language,” said Mehraj. Acting on the demand, directions were issued many times to do the official work in Punjabi in the government offices but these orders were never seriously implemented. In some of the convent schools in Punjab, speaking in Punjabi is as an offence,” said Sidhana.They said they have been working for the promotion of Punjabi and had faced a number of police cases for smudging display boards written in English or Hindi above Punjabi but they would continue to raise their voice.
