Answer:

The word "Punjab" is a combination of the Persian words panj (five), and "aab" (water), giving the literal meaning of the "Land of Five Rivers".The five rivers which gave Punjab its name are Beas, Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, and Sutlej. The chief occupation in Punjab is Agriculture. People work hard to maintain their fields and grow crops.

Punjab is a state where five rivers flow, namely, Jhelum, Ravi, Satluj, Chenab, and Beas. The word "Punjab" itself means "panj" meaning five and "aab" meaning water body. But currently, due to the partition of Indian, Satluj, Ravi, and Beas are flowing in the state of Punjab whereas Jhelum and Chenab are flowing in Pakistan.
