Key Facts

Punjab is a state located in the northwestern region of India, forming part of the country's federal structure. Geographically positioned between 29°30' N to 32°32' N latitude and 73°55' E to 76°50' E longitude, Punjab shares its borders with the Indian states of Jammu and Kashmir to the north, Himachal Pradesh to the northeast, Haryana to the south and southeast, and Rajasthan to the southwest, while its western boundary forms part of India's international border with Pakistan. Covering an area of approximately 50,362 square kilometers, Punjab is one of India's smaller states by area but ranks among the most densely populated, with a population of over 27 million people according to recent census data. The state is administratively divided into 23 districts, each with its own distinct characteristics and administrative centers. Known as the 'Land of Five Rivers' - deriving its name from the Persian words 'panj' (five) and 'āb' (waters) - Punjab's fertile plains are primarily fed by the Sutlej, Beas, Ravi, Chenab, and Jhelum rivers, making it one of India's most agriculturally productive regions and earning it the nickname 'India's Bread Basket.' The state's capital, Chandigarh, serves as a shared administrative center with the neighboring state of Haryana and is a union territory governed directly by the central government.
