Doab

''Doab'' (Urdu: , Hindi: दोआब, from Persian: دوآب ''dōāb'', from ''dō'', "two" + ''āb'', "water" or "river") is a term used in India and Pakistan for the "tongue," or tract of land lying between two converging, or confluent, rivers. It is similar to an interfluve, In the ''Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary'', R. S. McGregor defines it as "a region lying between and reaching to the confluence of two rivers (esp. that between the Ganges and Jumna)."
In India, "doab" is now largely a historical term applied to pre-1947 India and is seldom used in contemporary Hindi or Indian English.
==The Doab==

The Doab, unqualified by the names of any rivers, designates the flat alluvial tract between the Ganges and Yamuna rivers extending from the Sivalik Hills to the two rivers' confluence at Allahabad. The region has an area of about 23,360 square miles (60,500 square km); it is approximately in length and in width.
The region of the ''Doab'' figures prominently in the history and myths of Vedic period. The British divided the ''Doab'' into three administrative districts or zones, viz., Upper Doab (Meerut), Middle Doab (Agra) and Lower Doab (Allahabad). These districts are now divided into several other districts as enumerated below.
The following districts/states form part of the ''Doab'':
