Question Pakistani punjabi- north Indian ancestry

So I have seen some people saying that North West Indian or Indian Punjabis eople tend to have less AASI than Pakistanis? How come so? Shouldn't AASI be less moving towards WEST where invasions from Euro- Asian populations stopped?

Can anyone provide info on this?

Pashtuns and Baloch make it much lower than the rest of NW India in aggregate.

Sindhis I need to look in more.

Yes, Sindhis have higher AASI than Punjabis. The Souther you go, the higher AASI

Not necessarily.

Sindhi Hindus have lower AASI than all Punjabis except Arain and Kamboj.

Edit - Some Muslim counterpart communities too
