The new state of Punjab was carved out of the existing state of Punjab, which had been created in 1947. The new state of Haryana was carved out of the existing state of Punjab and the princely state of Patiala and East Punjab States Union. The new state of Himachal Pradesh was carved out of the existing state of Punjab and the princely state of Himachal Pradesh.<\/p>\n<p>The reorganization of Punjab on linguistic lines was a result of the demand of the Punjabi-speaking people for a separate state. The Punjabi-speaking people felt that they were being discriminated against by the Hindi-speaking people in the existing state of Punjab. The reorganization of Punjab on linguistic lines led to the creation of a state where the Punjabi-speaking people were in a majority.<\/p>\n<p>The reorganization of Punjab on linguistic lines was a major event in the history of India. It led to the creation of three new states and it also led to the redistribution of population and resources among the states. The reorganization of Punjab on linguistic lines was a complex and controversial process, but it was ultimately successful in creating a more equitable and just political system in India.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option (a): Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh. This is the correct answer. The reorganization of Punjab on linguistic lines in 1966 led to the creation of three new states: Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh.<\/li>\n<li>Option (b): Punjab, Jammu &amp; Kashmir, <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> and Haryana.
