No specific meaning
1- Cities/towns that are developed by converting forests into Cultivating Lands are called bar, in punjabi
2- Bar means fence (barrier).
3- urdu and punjbi languages have common words. Bar means "outside" in punjbi. The word Bahar (urdu, Outside) is stretched in punjbi language and we Pronounce it as "Bar"
4- A place where farmers keep Cows/Cattles, is called "Bara" in punjabi.
5- In english, bar is a unit of Pressure. So in punjbi language Bar is also used as a unit of Pressue, cz Pujaabi language has no alternative words.. That is what i know @muqawwee123

Sandal bar is region between chanaab and ravi rivers in Punjaab. It includes, lahore, lailpur, sheikhupura, tobatak singh e.t.c Basically, a community that shares same language, culture, traditions, is called sandal bar . Bar was the name of grandfather of famous Punjabi Hero Dulla Bhatti, who stood against Akbaar. @muqawwee123

Dulha Bhatti’s name was Bar or Sandal?
How many Bars are there in Punjab? How many come into Pakistan after partition?
Re: Bar in Punjab?
Sandal was the name of Grandfather of Dulla Bhatti... There is a bar near jhang District which is named after Dullah bhatti's Grandfather Sandal, as Sandal bar. It is thought that, jhang district belongs to sandal, the granfather of dulla bhatti.
Between north west india (indian punjab) and north east pakistan (pakistani punjbab) , there are hundreds of bars. Becz manay forests at the time of independence are now converted into cities like Amartasar, jahalandar, Lailalpur (faisalabad) , sheikhupura E.t.c. We can not count.. @muqawwee123
Re: Bar in Punjab?
Bars are the land strips between rivers.
Bars were populated by migrants from east punjab in different waves of migrations. Some in 1800s, some in 1900s.

Not an island, an area demarcated by rivers...I think it has more to do with forests though (bar)...

what do you mean by demarcated? like area where there was river at sometime and than it become dry. like HaakRa?
Re: Bar in Punjab?
No like the area between Ravi and Chenab like Prince Jall mentioned above. In olden times the territories were defined with respect to rivers. The people living between two rivers usually speak the same languages and have same cultures as well. If you see the rivers of Punjab, you can see distinctly the areas where Punjabi is spoken and others where Seraiki is the main language.
