Haryana and Punjab comprise the Indian half of the erstwhile Punjab region that was tumultuously split when India and Pakistan separated in 1947. Punjab (translating to Five Waters ) is named after the five rivers of this fertile rice bowl and bread basket : the Beas, Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi and Sutlej.
Another 6km away is Jyotisar, where the banyan tree is said to be an off shoot of the one under which Krishna power sockets in bali delivered the Bhagavad Gita. There s a one-hour Hindi (English power sockets in bali on request) sound-and-light show (adult/child 20/15; hsunset Tue-Sun).
