dbo:abstract
  • The Punjab Regiment is the second oldest regiments still in service in the Indian Army, and is the most senior regional infantry regiment. It was formed from the 2nd Punjab Regiment of theBritish Indian Army in 1947 and has taken part in various battles and wars since, winning numerous honours for the same. Prior to independence and partition there were a number of "Punjab Regiments" in the British Indian Army. These were amalgamated to form six regiments: the 1st Punjab Regiment, the 2nd Punjab Regiment, the 8th Punjab Regiment, the 14th Punjab Regiment, the 15th Punjab Regiment and the 16th Punjab Regiment. At the onset of independence in 1947, the 1st, 8th, 14th, 15th and 16th Punjab Regiments went over to the newly raised Pakistan Army, while the 2nd Punjab Regiment was retained in the Indian Army. Troops were transferred between regiments based on whether the soldiers would be a part of Pakistan or India. (en)
  • O Regimento de Punjab é o segundo regimento mais antigo em serviço no Exército Indiano e é o regimento de infantaria regional mais antigo. Foi formado a partir do 2º Regimento de Punjab do Exército da Índia Britânica em 1947 e participou de várias batalhas e guerras desde então, ganhando inúmeras honras pelo mesmo. Antes da independência e partição havia uma série de "Regimentos de Punjab" no Exército da Índia britânica. Estes foram fundidos para formar seis regimentos: o 1º Regimento de Punjab, o 2º Regimento de Punjab, o 8º Regimento de Punjab, o 14º Regimento de Punjab, o 15º Regimento de Punjab e o 16º Regimento de Punjab . No início da independência em 1947, os 1º, 8º, 14º, 15º e 16º Regimentos de Punjab passaram para o recém-criado Exército do Paquistão, enquanto o 2º Regimento foi mantido no Exército Indiano. As tropas foram transferidas entre regimentos com base em se os soldados fariam parte do Paquistão ou da Índia. (pt)
