<b>ramana Ji :</b>

To my knowledge Punjabi is written :

As Punjabi now -especially by the Sikhs - in Gurumukhi

Punjabi's Language's Scientific name is "Pakshami Hindi i.e. Western Hindi"

As Lahanda Hindus use the "Devnagri Script" whereas the Muslims use the "Urdu Script"

The Hindus use of Lahanda in the Devnagri Script is evidenced in their "Vahi-Khataas" i.e. Account Books.
