Punjabis
The main language of the Punjabi people is Punjabi and its associated dialects, which differ depending on the region of Punjab the speaker is from; there are notable differences in the Lahnda languages, spoken in the Pakistani Punjab. In the Pakistani Punjab, the vast majority still speak Punjabi, even though the language has no governmental support. In the Indian Punjab, most people speak Punjabi. English is sometimes used, and older people who lived in the undivided Punjab may be able to speak and write in Urdu. The Punjabi languages have always absorbed numerous loanwords from surrounding areas and provinces (and from English).
Yashpal Kapur
The challenge and the turning point that came upon Kapoor was that when one day the PM gave the dictation in English and asked him to translate the same in HINDI language and type too. Kapoor was able to take the dictation, but did not even know Hindi, the background being in Punjab which is now part of Pakistan, the languages used were either Persian, Urdu or English. While a senior Hindi journalist helped him out that day, he took upon himself to master the language and became the only point of translator for the PM there onward.
