    About this audiobook

    This is a compilation of 2 different titles, which are about the following topics:


    1: Punjab could be mainly in Pakistan at this moment, but the Punjabi people live and have resided in India also. As disputes emerged between the Indians and Pakistani, the border has moved from one area to another. Still, the Punjabi society is probably a vital aspect of India's history.

    Punjab is a geopolitical, cultural, and historic area in South Asia, situated in the northern area of the Indian subcontinent and incorporating parts of Pakistan and India. The area's limitations are ill-defined and based upon historic accounts.

    With time, the geographical definition of the name "Punjab" has moved. It described a really minimal terrain between the Indus and the Sutlej rivers at the time of the Mughal Empire's 16th century reign.


    2: Kashmir is the Indian subcontinent's northern most geographical area. It is quite different from the rest of India. And till the mid-nineteenth century, "Kashmir" only described the Kashmir Valley, which lies between the Great Mountain Ranges and the Pir Panjal Variety. Today, the word describes the Indian-controlled parts of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, and also the Pakistani-controlled terrain of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan, and the Chinese-controlled areas of Aksai Chin and the Trans-Karakoram System.


    The Kashmir area ended up being a crucial center of Hinduism and later Buddhism in the first centuries, while Kashmir Shaivism developed later, in the ninth century. This is why so many people attribute significant spiritual meaning to the area. It is no wonder, therefore, that some travelers go to this specific area for spiritual purposes.

    In this book, we will explore the history of Kashmir, its significance, and the current circumstances.

      Dearest consumers, I hope you see this message. I want you to know that this is an impressive audio book. The articulation of the words in this specific book was fantastic, in addition to all the information contained in it. Based on that, I am really glad that I bought the book. It was actually worth my time. The narrator's voice was calming. Did I already point out that it sounded really professional? It did. Yes, and that's why I just liked listening to it so much.
