This comprehensive GK manual systematically organises Punjab’s history, geography, polity, economy, and culture into 13 well-researched chapters plus a detailed index. Unlike fragmented online notes, this book delivers verified, examination-oriented content in one place.

Detailed Contents & Key Learning Areas

The book begins with a state profile, offering a snapshot of Punjab’s identity. The Geography of Punjab chapter covers rivers (Sutlej, Beas, Ravi), climate, soil types, and crop patterns. For history, three dedicated chapters examine the Ancient History of Punjab (Indus Valley sites like Ropar), Mediaeval History (Ghaznavids, Mughals, and Sikh Gurus), and Modern History (Anglo-Sikh wars, Jallianwala Bagh, and the partition of 1947). The Formation of the State section explains the reorganisation of Punjab in 1966 and the creation of Haryana and Himachal Pradesh.

Additional core topics include the following:

- Chandigarh – the Capital: Its planning by Le Corbusier and administration.
- Anandpur Sahib Resolution and Rajiv-Longowal Pact: Key political accords.
- Administrative Divisions: Districts, tehsils, and local governance.
- Population: Demographics, literacy, and rural-urban distribution based on latest census data.
- Economy of Punjab: Agriculture (Green Revolution), industry, and services.

- Index: Quickly locate any topic or person.
