Penjab
Le Penjab - ou Panjâb, Pendjab ou Punjab - désigne des subdivisions de l'Inde et du Pakistan, chacun des deux pays ayant récupéré une portion du pays sikh lors de l'indépendance et de la partition qui l'a accompagnée, car les sikhs menés par Baba Kharak Singh - suivant Gandhi et contrairement aux musulmans menés par Muhammad Ali Jinnah qui obtinrent la création d'une république islamique - n'ont pas souhaité à cette époque la création d'un état sikh.
