araiki, a widely spoken language of southwestern Punjab in Pakistan (and related to Punjabi), is spoken by some within the larger Pakistani Punjabi communities in the city. Professor Hamad Khan, who teaches at Bronx Community College, has published three books of poetry, including two in Urdu and one in Siraiki. Other Saraiki speakers are Afghan Sikhs or Hindus, of whom some came in the 1980s and 90s and now worship at the Afghan Hindu temple in Flushing or the Afghan Sikh gurudwara in Hicksville.
