| | Sikhism is the main religion in the Punjab. | | | The ultimate place for a sikh pilgrim is Amritsar, where the Golden Temple is the main place of worship. | | | The sweets are bought and distributed amongst people (irrespective of caste, creed, faith or sex), to signify that all people are welcome at God's abode and as everyone eats the same food everyone is equal - no Sikh believes in any ritual or sacrifice to please GOD. |

| | Welcome to Mypind ..Tehsils....Punjab India Village ... |
| | The word "Punjab" is made up of two Persian words "Panj" and "Aab", Panj means five and Aab means water. | | | The Sikh faith which played a decisive role in the creation of a Punjabi-speaking state came into being during a period of religious revival in the 15th and 16th centuries. | | | Punjab emerges into history with the coming of the Aryans into India. |

| | Punjab |
| | Punjab possesses great powers - he can appear out of nowhere, and by covering people with his cape, he can make them disappear to an alternate dimension, or to "the genii." Once, he shows Annie how by making Sandy disappear - and when Sandy returns, he is scared out of his wits. | | | Warbucks' enlightened despotism is eclipsed by Punjab's "enlightened" barbarism. | | | Punjab is not at all adverse to removing villains in this manner, which Warbucks must (halfheartedly!) scold him for on more than one occasion. |

| | Now the opinion in Punjab seems to be that the accord is dead, perhaps because many elements in it remain unimplemented. | | | That leads us to the fourth and most important point, namely, that unlike the Cauvery dispute, which is a straightforward riparian dispute, this is really a dispute relating to allocation of river waters made in pursuance of a reorganisation of States. | | | It was in pursuance of that accord that the Ravi-Beas Tribunal was set up. |
