The population of Indian Punjab is divided into two major religious
groups, the Sikhs and Hindus.Punjabis make around 2.5% of the population
of India. It is further sub-divided into various tribal groups, social
groups (caste) and economic groups. Major sub-groups in India include
the Aroras, Khatris, Kalals/Ahluwalias, Bania, Saini Sikhs, Saini
Hindus, Brahmin, Chamar, Chhimba, Chura, Jatts, Kamboj, Labanas, Lohar,
Mahtam, Mazhabi, Nais, Rajput, Ramgarhia, Ramdasia, Soods and Tarkhans
etc. All these subgroups are hardworking and well educated and living
with unity, peace and harmony with each other.
Like the Punjabi Muslim society, these various castes are associated
with particular occupations or crafts. Communities such as the Jatt and
Rajput from a Zamindar background are essentially farmers along with
Kamboj Sikh and Saini Sikhs, while the Arora, Bania, Bhatia are
associated to trade. Other groups are associated with particular crafts,
include Lohar who were historically ironsmiths, while Tarkhans were
carpenters and the Nai were barbers.Indian Punjab is also home to small
groups of Muslims and Christian. Most of the East Punjab's Muslims (in
today's states of Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi and
Chandigarh) left for West Punjab in 1947. However, a small community
still exists today, mainly in Malerkotla which was spared during
partition, the only Muslim princely state among the seven that formed
the erstwhile Patiala and East Punjab States Union (PEPSU). The other
six (mostly Sikh) states were: Patiala, Nabha, Jind, Faridkot,
Kapurthala and Kalsia.
The Punjab region within India maintains a strong influence on the
perceived culture of India towards the rest of the world. Numerous
Bollywood film productions use the Punjabi language in their songs and
dialogue as well as traditional dances such as bhangra. Bollywood has
been dominated by Punjabi artists including Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, Vinod
Khanna, Dharmendra, Shammi Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, Lara Dutta, Akshay
Kumar and Kareena Kapoor. Prime Ministers of India including Gulzarilal
Nanda and Inder Kumar Gujral in the past, and Dr. Manmohan Singh at
present, are Punjabis, as are numerous players in the Indian cricket
team both past and present including Bishen Singh Bedi, Kapil Dev,
Mohinder Amarnath, Navjot Sidhu, Harbhajan Singh, Yuvraj Singh and
Yograj Singh.Punjabi wedding traditions and ceremonies are conducted in
Punjabi, and are a strong reflection of Punjabi culture. While the
actual religious marriage ceremony among Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, and
Jains may be conducted in Arabic, Punjabi, Sanskrit, by the Kazi, Pandit
or Granthi, there are also many commonalities in ritual, song, dance,
food, make-up and dress. The Punjabi wedding has many rituals and
ceremonies that have evolved since traditional times. Punjabi receptions
of all sorts are known to be very energetic, filled with loud Bhangra
music, people dancing,and a wide variety of Punjabi food. Alcohol
consumption by the menfolk is part of the tradition amongst Hindu and
some Sikh communities that allow it.
