Punjab is a region in South Asia, primarily divided between India and Pakistan. The name “Punjab” derives from Persian, meaning “Land of Five Rivers,” referring to the five major rivers that flow through the region: the Beas, Chenab, Jhelum, Ravi, and Sutlej.
In India, Punjab is a state known for its vibrant culture, significant agricultural production (particularly of wheat and rice), and a prominent Sikh population. The state’s capital is Chandigarh, which it shares with Haryana.
In Pakistan, Punjab is the most populous province, with Lahore as its capital. It plays a crucial role in the country’s economy, agriculture, and politics. The culture in both Indian and Pakistani Punjab includes rich traditions in music, dance (like Bhangra), and cuisine, contributing to the region’s identity.
Historically, Punjab has been significant due to its strategic location and has experienced various cultural influences and political changes over the centuries, including the impact of the British colonial rule and the partition of India in 1947, which resulted in significant demographic shifts.
