It is unfortunate to see the stigma attached to one of the most beautiful of the languages on the planet i.e. Punjabi. To the elites, it is the language of the middle class, so there is no chance of it being present in their discourse.
To the middle class, it is something that does not allow them to enter into the elite circle, so it must be avoided at any cost. For the poor class, it is the only choice in most cases. They use it in their everyday life but not without thinking that it is far lower than any of the languages they have heard of. Without suggesting any solution in his regard, I would request the audience to give this issue a thought and try to understand where the problem stems from.
