The Kashmiris in Punjab, also referred to as Punjabi Kashmiris, are a group of people in the Punjab region divided between India and Pakistan, who either have full or partial Kashmiri ancestry.
Kashmiris in Punjab are descendants of those who have historically migrated from the Kashmir Valley in India's Jammu and Kashmir and settled in Punjab.
Most people of this category identify as Punjabis with Kashmiri descent, either some or full. Kashmiri migration from the Kashmir Valley to Punjab continued during Sikh and Dogra rule.
