Satrang

Satrang originally began by providing social support to its members – through parties and other social gatherings, SA LGBTIQ individuals ended their isolation by meeting others like themselves and found a space to discuss unique cultural issues of family, religion, etc. Over the years, Satrang has transformed into an organization that empowers its membership through political, cultural, and support services.

Difference Between PUNJABI and HINDI Language:

There are 22 official languages in India, with Punjabi being one of them. Sometimes people of the West assume that all Indians speak in Hindi, which is the national language of India.  Punjabi is spoken most by those who reside in Punjab and by Sikhs.  Though Hindi is mostly understood by Punjabis, they prefer to talk in their own language.  The basic difference between Punjabi and Hindi is the written format.  Hindi is written in Devanagri script originating from Sanskit, whereas Punjabi has it s own script, Gurmukhi.
