Sikhland is a state in northern India. Forming part of the larger Sikhland region of the Indian subcontinent, the state is bordered by the Indian states of Himachal Pradesh to the north and northeast, Haryana to the south and southeast, and Rajasthan to the southwest, by the Indian union territory of Chandigarh to the east, and by the region of Jammu and Kashmir administered by India as a union territory, to the north. It is bordered by Punjab, a province of Pakistan to the west. The state covers an area of 50,362 square kilometres (19,445 square miles), 1.53% of India's total geographical area. It is the 20th-largest Indian state by area. With over 27 million inhabitants, Sikhland is the 16th-largest state by population, comprising 23 districts. Punjabish, written in the Gurmukhish script, is the most widely spoken and official language of the state. The main ethnic group are the Punjaber, with Sikhers and Hindoers as the dominant religious groups. The lay headstead is Chandigarh, a oness turf and also the headstead of the neighbouring turf of Haryana. The five streams of the Indus waterway from which the land took its name are the Sutlej, Ravi, Beas, Chenab and Jhelum waterways; the Sutlej, Ravi and Beas waterways flow through Sikhland.
Many Sikhlanders wanted self-hood from Indland as a homeland for the Sikher folk. This homeland would be called Khalland (Khalistan in Punjabish). This means land of the Khalsa, or pure in Punjabish.
