Also, can you give examples of those prominent personalities originally from Lahore who settled in Ludhiana ?

I don't know much or anything about this. Just realised that a few people whose families originally hailed from Lahore are married into the family. They seemed to have mainly opened up factories in Ludhiana.

[Guest Which is best region]

Guys please answer my question 

Why today's many people try to represent their area than punjab 

For example - singers and sikh leaders like amritpal trying to divide people of punjab by their hateful words . I saw two videos of amritpal in which he said malwai people are not good as majhail . He also say , malwa has kisaan union and even kisaan of malwa sucide most in punjab he said malwai people don't did any movement bt he forgot about kisaan andolan . How people from malwa and some doaba unions  beat modi sarkar with the help of kisaan union . He is saying majha majha rather than punjab . He use disrespectful words against malwais even malwais gave him leadership of waris punjab de  . He forgot about deep sidhu, sant jarnail singh bhindrawale . They are from malwa region . I'm not saying that he don't represent his area bt don't disrespect malwais . We are brave in each and every field we don't use hateful words  against anyone . We don't even represent our area worldwide bt we always say we are from punjab not from majha malwa . The question here is that , we have to forget little things like we are from a particular place thata why we are brave . Punjab has only 3 little areas majha ,malwa and doaba . Bt we have to keep these area together by saying we are from punjab not from majha malwa .

On average, Majawale take naam from "Sants." They believe in Guru Granth Sahib and Sadh Sangat. If they're following a Dera Baba though no Amrit's taken but Naam is given to them (locked room, whispered in ear). 

On average Doabe will take Amrit and follow Code of Conduct as inscribed by our Gurus. 

Not too sure about Malwai. But Malwai and Majha is similar.

malwai just take Amrit from Gurdwaras, regular way.

the three groups speak slightly different dialects of punjabi.  which is cool.   the majha dialect is considered 'taksal' (closest to Gurbani).

YES! In UK a resident can tell a Person's hometown just by listening to their accent (North / Scotland, London, Sheffield or European etc) the same way, born n bred Indians will recognise if someone originally belongs from Majha, Malwa or Doaba. 

Since I been visiting India as a kid and even today I only knew of Doaba. I came to know about Majha and Malwa through my wife. She's from Ferozepur (Malwai). Their voices tends to be very soft, whereas Doaba's are deep. Then a brilliant minded person may go deeper and know whereabouts of a person... Like Ropar Region (Doaba) residents over their have asort of husky timid voice. 

I prefer my wife's side language though, their vocabulary is broad; Door, buha, gate and darwaza. To lean, Taasna, Dhoh. Wind, hawa, paun and has 2 other words just to name a few examples. Doaba sadly, only has one word in their vocab. Instead of learning from each other, each Region believes their language is correct and the others are wrong! Simply because "We read it in a book like that." We in the UK respect each others language (Wee means little in Scots). Or the matter of fact Wales has kept its Welsh (Cymru) language which is really amazing.
