The violent acts and support was gained from Rajiv Ghandi, son of Indira Ghandi in response to her death. Over thousands of Sikhs were killed in this genocide and in 2011, Human Rights Watch revealed that the Indian government has yet to punish those responsible for the mass killings. So.. it's not been solved but.. it's a conflict and it's something we'll always want justice for..2) Punjab's capitol city is loved throughout the nation. Name this city and three interesting facts about it. Make sure they are not obvious facts; intrigue me!Capital: ChandigarhThree facts:It's a Capital city to two states (Punjab and Haryana)It has the best architecture and is known world wide for its beautyIt's called 'City Beautiful'3) In 1966 one state was merged into Punjab; name this state.The East Punjab States that were separate from the royal Punjab4) Name the first Punjabi film ever made and by who it was made by
Pind Di Kudi by K.D. Mehra.

Give two reasons at least
-A very historic and deep rooted culture is from Punjab-The beauty and the necessities it (the state) provides the country with is commendable7) Name one successful milestone in Punjabi history and how it has affected Punjabi culture and society todayI would have to say that it was definitely.. like I stated earlier, the Punjabi film industry evolving when Harbhajan Maan began making movies. Before him, Punjabi movies had stopped being produced and that had been so for years until Manmohan SIngh and Harbhajan Maan came out with movies and restarted the industry.. This time of course, it was on a higher level than it had ever been with the shooting of the first movie itself in Canada.. Considering how it was the NRIs in Canada who even helped bring the film industry back and make it what it was today.. and its ability to compete with Bollywood movies releasing on the same day.. the culture has been impacted in a positive way greatly. Punjabis are beginning to have an identity in the film industry and something that seemed impossible has become possible..8) According to 2010 results, how many people speak Punjab around the globe?

10) Name four different types of traditional Punjabi attire; give a brief description on the looks of this attire.
(Not sure what its called).. but.. the clothes you wear for teeyan de mele and whatnot.. its almost like a normal salweer kameez suit except there's this flowy lengha instead of the salwar.
Salwaar Kameez- long shirt like.. thing.. with open ish baggy ish pants.. I dunno.. how do you describe such things?😆Chadra - the men wear this.. it's like a dhoti..Lengha: What any Indian person wears.. flowy skirt with a top..
Good Luck Everyone!
