— Hindkowan (hindko speaking) is a linguistic term. Not an ethnic or religious one. You can be ethnically Pashtun, Gujjar, Pahari, Punjabi, Kohistani, or Dardic, and be a Hindkowan. It is akin to saying all English language speakers today are historically the same people descending from the same ethnicty.
