Punjab is a state in the northwest of the
Republic of India, forming part of the larger
Punjab region.
The state is bordered by the
Indian states of
Himachal Pradesh to the east,
Haryana to the south and southeast and
Rajasthan to the southwest as well as the
Pakistani province of Punjab to the west. It is also bounded to the north by the
Indian state of
Jammu and Kashmir. The state capital is located in
Chandigarh, which is a
Union Territory and also the capital of the neighbouring state of Haryana.
After the partition of
India in
1947, the
Punjab province of
British India was divided between
India and Pakistan. The
Indian Punjab was divided in 1966 with the formation of the new states of Haryana and Himachal Pradesh, as well as the current state of Punjab. Punjab is the only state in India with a majority Sikh population.
The term Punjab comprises two words: "punj meaning five and ab meaning water, thus the land of five rivers."
The Greeks referred to Punjab as
Pentapotamia, an inland delta of five converging rivers. In
Avesta, the sacred text of Zoroastrians, the Punjab region is associated with the ancient hapta həndu or
Sapta Sindhu, the
Land of Seven Rivers. Historically, the Punjab region has been the gateway to the
Indian Subcontinent for people from
Greece,
Central Asia,
Iran, and
Afghanistan.
Agriculture is the largest industry in Punjab; it is the largest single producer of wheat in
India.
