Answer:

Doab is a term used in South Asia for the tract of land lying between two converging, or confluent, rivers. It is similar to an interfluve.

Doab means land between two rivers. Do= two. Ab= water. An example of doab can be the ganga -yamuna doab or the land in the ganga Yamuna basin area. Likewise, punjab is the land of five waters, i.e., five rivers.
