  2. Introduction Punjab is a region of the northwest Indian subcontinent. It is made up of two Persian words -Panj- and -Aab- where Panj means five and Aab means water. It is called land of five rivers that ran through it. They are Jhelum, Ravi, Beas, Sutlej and Chenab. Punjab is surrounded on the west by Pakistan, on the North by Jammu and Kashmir, on the north east by Himachal Pradesh and on the south by Haryana and Rajasthan.

  3. Evidence of life in the Punjab region was discovered in 7000 B.C. In 3000 BC, life grew in and around the Indus Valley, which gave rise to the Indus Valley civilisation. There was growth of historic cities like Harappa and MohenjoDaro. Punjab was continuously being attacked by the Persians The Persian King Gustasp conquered in 516 BC. Punjab became the wealthiest province of the Persian kingdom. Greeks, the strong competitors of the Persians, also eyed Punjab territory.

  4. British entered Punjab in 1845 and moved to the Sutlej frontier. British and Sikh troops engaged in the First Anglo-Sikh War near Ferozepur. The war ended the following year and the territory between the Sutlej and the Beas fell into the hands of the British rule, along with Kashmir. As per the Peace Treaty and the Treaty of Lahore, Punjab was totally annexed by the British East India Company and Dhalip Singh, the minor Sikh ruler, was pensioned off. The black day of the JalianwalaBagh Massacre occurred at Amritsar, in 1919. It agitated the Sikhs to revolt against the tyranny of the colonial rule. The 1940 Lahore Resolution of the Muslim League made Punjab the centre of a bloodier struggle. Punjab Luxury Holiday Packages
