Re: [Ltru] Punjabi

[Sorry for the duplicate mail]

I have actually managed to track down some relevant information from the LSI
faster than I originally thought:

Lahnda in the LSI:

Punjabi in the LSI:

http://www.rosettaproject.org/archive/pan/detail-1/?b_start:int=1&page_view=image_view

Please keep in mind that this is about 100 years old, and was made during 
the British Raj prior to partition.  The dynamics of the area may have 
changes now.
