Khanna

Khanna is a city and a city committee in the Ludhiana area of Punjab, India. Khanna is a Punjabi word, which implies one quarter.

History uncovers that Sher Shah Suri manufactured ious sarais at each 12 to 15 miles along the Delhi-Lahore street. One of the sarais was worked here which is as yet known as the Purani Sarai. After the decay of Mughal lead in the Punjab, Banda Bahadur caught the territory from Sirhind to Hoshiarpur. After that a Jathedar of Dahedu controlled and possessed the entire of the zone from Dahedu to Nabha. He wedded his girl, Daya Kaur, to the King of Nabha.

At the point when a family question emerged between the King and his new spouse, she cleared out Nabha for good and returned to live with her folks in Dahedu. As indicated by Indian traditions she couldn't stay there until the end of time. Thusly, her dad gave her a "kann", or a "little part", of the region among Dahedu and Nabha that was notable for its farming. After some time, the elocution of the name changed from "Kann" to "Khanna". The city is 40 km from the city of Ludhiana on the Grand Trunk Road and is home to Asia's biggest grain showcase.
