  • K → Kashmir 
  • S → Sindh 
  • TAN → from Baluchistan/Balochistan together with the Persian suffix "-stan" (meaning "land"). 
  • Note: Historians explain that "TAN" is not only the suffix "-stan". It also incorporates the ending of Baluchistan. So it is slightly more precise to write:"TAN → from Baluchistan together with the Persian suffix '-stan'."
