MONOGRAPH No. 19 PUNJAB GOVERNMENT RECORD OFFICE PUBLICATIONS. BY Mian Bashir Ahmed Farooqi LANGUAGES DEPARTMENT, PUNJAB. Publisher's Note: It may look unprogressive to bring out another reprint of a book which was first published as far back as the later years of the nineteenth century. It is possible that lot of further research might have taken place in this subject during the succeeding years, yet these works maintain their own reference value. The idea behind the present venture is to make available these rare works to most libraries and readers. The British and other Western scholars rendered great service to this land and their works still have great bearing on the Language, Culture and History of the Punjab. The Languages Department has planned to bring out reprints ofthe most valuable works, including the present one, for the benefit of most readers, scholars and research workers.
