In today's modern era of technology, more number of people use internet for the purpose of expressing their opinions, thoughts and ideas through social media as well as articles. This leads to increased informal text available for public access. Such text may also be available in different dialectal forms of the specific language and may attract natives of that region. Moreover, literature, local news, articles, etc. written in a particular dialectal form of language is more expressive. For this purpose, dialect conversion systems plays vital role. This paper describes the dialect conversion system for Punjabi language that converts input text to either of three Punjabi dialects namely Majhi, Malwai and Doabi. A rule based approach is adopted for defining the conversion rules and bilingual dictionary is also used for this purpose.
