 Hamara Multan's Seraiki Channel Seraiki Motherland Back to
Seraiki Channel
Seraiki is the mother-tongue of more than 40 million people in the
south-western Pakistani Punjab. In the following districts Seraikis are in
large majority: Mianwali, Taank, Dera Ismail Khan, Dera Ghazi Khan Rajan Pur,
Rahim Yarn Khan, Bahawalpur, Bahawal Nagar, Vehari, Khanewal, Multan, Muzaffar
garh, Layyah, Bakhar, Jhang, Khushab and Sargodha.
More than 10 million Pakhtoon and Baloch tribes are bilingual and most of them
use Seraiki as their first language. Seraiki is widely spoken and understood
in some parts of Sindh province and is the third biggest language of
Balochistan. There is a large number of Seraiki speaking people in India and
other parts of the world. Its nomenclature (Seraiki) has been given by Sindhi
brothers as Punjab or Punjabi given by the Iranians. The modern movement of
revival of the Seraiki language and culture is only 40 year old. In this short
period, Seraiki wasaib produced printed literature (novels, short stories,
poetry books, periodicals, news papers, booklets etc.), a large number of
poets and lok singers. Two Seraiki T.V. channels Kook and Waseb are on air and
more to be launched soon. Seraiki Departments have been established in
universities in Multan and Bahawalpur. Several cultural organizations are
proactive in the vast Seraiki wasaib organizing ‘mushairas’ and public
meetings. Seraiki is also on the web and more than a dozen Seraiki websites
are online including wasaib.com. |
