Over the twentieth century many communities have immigrated to the United Kingdom (UK), amongst them Punjabis from India and Pakistan. Many have brought their literary talents with them. Some have taken to writing in English, whilst others have expressed their works in to their original language. These writers have absorbed what they have seen in England and reflected this in their Punjabi Novels and Poetry. Amongst these writers are Amarjit Chandan, Harjeet Atwal, Veena Verma (writer of Mull Di Teeveen) and Shivcharan Gill. Others include Sathi Ludhianvi, K.C.Mohan, S.S.Santokh and Yash. In addition to these imigres new British born writers are emerging. These include Dominic Rai, Rupinderpal Singh Dhillon and Daljit Nagra.
