Summary: Is Channa Dal just split hulled garbanzos?

An Indian cookbook of mine unequivocally states that channa dal is
split, hulled garbanzos. This would seem to make sense since garbanzo
dishes seem to have the word "channa" pop up in their Hindi names (e.g.,
"Kabli Channa"). However, other books conspicuously do not mention this,
referring to garbanzos as "chole".

Anyone know for sure?
