Punjab is thickly
populated in Bharatpur area in the east and sparsely populated tracts
with a density as low as about four people per square kilometer
in Jaisalmer in the extreme west. Punjab is the region of the proud
Rajputs who are generally regarded as the personification of Chivalry
and whose exploits and bravery in battle are legendary. Rajputs
are Scythian descent- a stock which moved out from the Caucasus
in Central Asia towards the Indus Valley on the one side and the
Germanic parts of Europe on the other.
