City of Melville
The City of Melville is a local government area in the southern suburbs of the Western Australian capital city of Perth, east of the port city of Fremantle and about 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) south of Perth's central business district. The City covers an area of 52.73 square kilometres (20.36 sq mi) and had a population of about 98,000 as at the 2016 Census.
City of Melville History
Melville was originally established on 14 December 1900 as the East Fremantle Road District under the Roads Boards Act 1871. It was renamed Melville six months later. In 1923, it received a large amount of land from Jandakot Road District when that entity was abolished.
On 1 July 1961, it became a shire following the enactment of the Local Government Act 1960. The Shire of Melville was declared a town on 28 September 1962, and a city on 3 May 1968.

Punjabi is an Indo-Aryan language and the native language of about 130 million people, and is the 10th most spoken language in the world. Most of the people who speak this language live in the Punjab region of Pakistan and India. It is also widely spoken in Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Delhi. Punjabi is natively spoken by the majority of the population of Pakistan.
Punjabi developed from the ancient language of Sanskrit just like many other modern Indo-Aryan languages.
In India technical words in Standard Punjabi are loaned from Sanskrit similarly to other major Indian languages, but it generously uses Arabic, Persian, and English words also in the official language. 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 Devanagari or Latin scripts due to influence from Hindi and English, India's two primary official languages at the Union-level.
In Pakistan, Punjabi is generally written using the Shahmukhī script, created from a modification of the Persian Nastaʿlīq script. In Pakistan, Punjabi loans technical words from Persian and Arabic languages, just like Urdu does. Punjabi is the most widely spoken language in Pakistan, the eleventh-most widely spoken in India and spoken Punjabi diaspora in various countries.

Punjabi Document Translation
Punjabi is spoken across the India-Pakistan border, with the language split between two scripts and two administrative traditions. Indian Punjabi (from Punjab state) uses the Gurmukhi script, while Pakistani Punjabi documents from Punjab province typically use Urdu (Shahmukhi/Nastaliq script) for official purposes since Punjabi lacks official status in Pakistan. This script and administrative divide is the most critical factor in Punjabi document translation.
Punjabi Document Types
Key Punjabi (Indian) civil documents include janam saretifiket (birth certificate) and vivah saretifiket (marriage certificate), though official documents from Punjab state may also carry Hindi-language headers.
Where Punjabi Is Official
Punjabi is an official language of the Indian state of Punjab and is recognised in the Indian constitution. In Pakistan, despite being the most widely spoken language, Punjabi has no official status at the federal or provincial level. Indian Punjabi civil documents are issued by state authorities in Gurmukhi, while Pakistani civil documents relevant to Punjabi speakers are typically in Urdu.
Punjabi is written in Gurmukhi script in India and Shahmukhi (Nastaliq Arabic-derived) script in Pakistan. There is no single standardised romanisation system for either, and diaspora name spellings in Latin script vary considerably. Translators must reconcile source-document names with existing Australian records.
About City of Melville
The City of Melville covers approximately 53 square kilometres along the Swan River's southern bank, with a population of around 103,000. It is a predominantly affluent, well-established residential area with mature tree-lined streets, though higher-density development is increasing around the Canning Bridge and Riseley Street precincts.
Notable suburbs include Melville, Applecross, Mount Pleasant, Booragoon, Willagee, Myaree, and Bull Creek, with Garden City Booragoon as the major shopping destination.
The civic centre and council administration are on Almondbury Road in Booragoon, near the City of Melville Library. The Melville Aquatic Fitness Centre and LeisureFit Booragoon provide recreational facilities, and community halls are located in Melville, Applecross, and Willagee.
Canning Bridge and Bull Creek stations on the Mandurah line serve the area, with Canning Bridge functioning as a major bus interchange. Leach Highway, Canning Highway, and Riseley Street provide road connectivity, and the Kwinana Freeway runs along the eastern boundary.
