The Punjabi Suba Movement was not just a political demand-it was a quest for dignity, cultural recognition, and self-determination. This book explores the historical journey of Punjab in post-independence India, tracing the roots of the movement that sought the creation of a Punjabi-speaking state. From the struggles of Sikh leaders to the debates around linguistic identity, from the political strategies of the Akali Dal to the response of the Indian state, The Punjabi Suba Movement: A Struggle for Identity brings to life one of the most important episodes in modern Indian history. Inside this book, you will discover: The historical and cultural roots of the Punjabi Suba demand. The role of Sikh institutions, leaders, and organizations. The political negotiations, protests, and sacrifices that shaped the movement. How language became central to questions of identity and autonomy. The eventual reorganization of Punjab in 1966 and its lasting impact. This is a must-read for students, researchers, and anyone interested in Indian history, Sikh studies, and the politics of identity. A story of resilience, cultural pride, and the determination of a people to preserve their language and identity-this book reveals how the Punjabi Suba Movement continues to shape Punjab's destiny even today.
