Detailed explanation-1: -According to Sikh tradition, Gurmukhi (literally, “from the mouth of the Guru”) was invented in the mid-16th century by Angad, the second Sikh Guru (head of the Sikh religion), in order to correct certain inadequacies in the Lahnda script so that sacred literature might be accurately recorded.
Detailed explanation-2: -In India, Punjabi is written in the Gurmukhī script in offices, schools, and media. Gurmukhi is the official standard script for Punjabi, though it is often unofficially written in the Latin scripts due to influence from English, one of India’s two primary official languages at the Union-level.
