- Abstract
In 1947 India got free from the British rule in the form of two independent sovereign states of India and Pakistan. .At the time of division the province of Punjab was divided along religious lines into two parts: West Punjab and East Punjab. Eastern Punjab stayed with India and the West Punjab was assimilated in to the newly emerging country of Pakistan. Use of an article of 'the' in the title is to focus on the province of Punjab which became the part of Pakistan. Thus the post-independence electoral experience of Punjab is dealing with only the Pakistani Punjab.
