| History / इतिहास | |
| Brief History / संक्षिप्त इतिहास | The PDA has shifted part of the archival records of the seven princely states , housed for the past 50 years in Rajindra Kothi at the Baradari Gardens, to two separate places in the city. The precious archival records have been shifted to the State Languages Department and Punjabi University without any cataloguing. Moreover this step has been taken as a temporary measure with plans to build a new building for the records in Punjabi University. Punjab State Archives, Patiala, has been the biggest repository of archival material in North India. It contains valuable records pertaining to princely states, residency records and Khalsa Durbar records, besides printed accounts of some of the important British officials in Punjab. |
