We all are called Himachlis or Pahadis in other parts of India particularly in Punjab, Haryana, Delhi and parts of Utter Pradesh.
Despite our cultural and linguistic variations we are collectively termed Highlanders and are thought to be very innocent, honest but backward group of People.
We ourselves try to hide our identities outside our state in a pseudo fear that we would be underrated and estimated. We pretend not having noticed a person who is well known to us just for such reasons.
We must be proud that first PVC was honoured to a Himachli in 1948. It was due to the most sincere efforts of a Himachli that Jammu and Kashmir state could be merged in India. We must be very proud to two of them i.e. Major Somnath Sharma and Justice Mehar Chand Mahajan.
We should also know that we have been mentioned in the oldest epics and the Katoch dynasty is considered to be the oldest ruling dynasty in the world. When people in Europe and other parts of world lived like gypsies our ancestors lived a civilized life. After greatest destruction due to floods Manu with his boat and life stock had laid down the foundation of Manali from where the life spreaded to other parts.
We try to avoid speaking in our local dialect for unknown reasons and fears .
Our new generation is forgetting our language as we don't allow them to speak it.
I want to remind you the words of a patriot... Mother and motherland are more lovable than even heaven. So how could we humiliate the language of our mother and motherland.
Let's spread this message that we will always be connected to our roots and love and use our mother tongue Pahadi atleast inside our houses, where ever we live, work or pull our lives.
