Abstract: Malwa is the southeastern region of modern Punjab and constitutes a major part of it. The word Malwa is supposed to be a distorted form of Mallava, the name of an ancient tribe, which unsuccessfully challenged Alexander. It is separated from other regions of Punjab by river Sutlej. The region occupies an important position in the Sikh history because of its association with Guru Angad and Guru Gobind Singh. But for along the river Sutlej, the landscape of Malwa is marked with semi-arid land, slow growing trees and thorny bushes.
