Can someone help me identify each of these authors?

I've just gotten into Punjabi reading and haven't read much except Prof. Sahib Singh, who are your favourite authors?

[VanHelsingh]

Hmm... is the first one Bulleh Shah?

[Sikhistan]

2nd last one is rabinder nath Tagore?

[jpsingh2]

I did an image search and found that the first one is Bulleh Shah and I already knew that the second one was Waris Shah but I have no clue about the rest.. I don't think the 2nd last one is Tagore Sahib cause he doesnt write in Punjabi and also I dont think he wears glasses. The third person seems familiar but I cant put my name on it.

The one on extreme right is famous Punjabi poet Shiv Kumar Batalvi.

[Sikhistan]

Third last one is Amrita pritam. Yes Tagore was Bengali so yeh he didn't know any punjabi.

The third one is Prof Puran Singh and just read his biography seems to be a very interesting guy cant wait to dl some of his books, anyways only the 5th one remains a mystery now.

Could be Harbhajan Singh?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbhajan_Singh_(poet)

Along with Amrita Pritam, Harbhajan is credited with revolutionising the Punjabi poetry writing style

Many prolific poets and scholars did their PhDs under him including Attar Singh, Tirlok Singh Kanwar, Atamjit Singh, Mahinder Kaur Gill and Satinder Singh.

Found out it is Davinder Satyarthi, not Harbhajan Singh

Thanks everyone
