The Western Pahari languages are a cluster of languages which includes: Dogri-Kangri, Mandeali, Hindhuri, Jaunsari, Mahasu, Pahari, Pangwali, Sirmauri and others. The Dogri language is spoken by about five million people  in Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and undivided Punjab . The whole of Jammu province, south of Pir Panjal, some parts of Himachal Pradesh, viz. Kangra, Chamba, Kullu, Mandi, Suket, some parts of Punjab, namely Gurdaspur, Pathankot, Nurpur, Hoshiarpur and some parts of Pakistan, viz. Shakargarh tehsil of Sialkot, comprise the area of the Dogri language.
