Punjab

Punjab, the land of five rivers, is known for its fertile plains, rich Sikh heritage, and exuberant culture. It played a vital role in India’s independence movement and the Green Revolution. The Golden Temple in Amritsar, one of Sikhism's holiest sites, stands as a beacon of spirituality and equality. Punjab’s traditions are steeped in music, dance (bhangra and giddha), and heartfelt hospitality.

The state is also known for its robust agricultural economy and military contributions. Historic places like Jallianwala Bagh, Wagah Border, and Anandpur Sahib carry deep patriotic and religious significance. Punjabi cuisine—featuring butter chicken, sarson da saag, and makki di roti—is loved nationwide. Famous Punjabis include Bhagat Singh, singer Gurdas Maan, and Milkha Singh, the Flying Sikh. Punjab remains a dynamic blend of tradition, resilience, and celebration.
