The greater Punjab State was split into three . Punjab was further reduced . I feel that Sikhs could've spread Punjabi influence throughout the state with time and we would've had a powerful state that ruled over the country . Now Punjabis speaking areas were taken and put into Haryana and Himachal .. This was a terrible mistake. ... Also Haryana it self is a poor man's version of Panjab . Harvani isn't a language and their state is a complete RAPE LAND and backwardness Crap hole. There is not such thing is Harvani culture , it's just a knockoff of Panjabiness , they lack an Identity.
