Demographics
The residents of the village (mainly Randhawa Jatts) are descendants of Baba Lachhman Singh Dharowali, a martyr of the Nankana Sahib Holocaust, where he was burnt alive after being hung upright from a jand tree. Probably the descendants who migrated during the Indo-Pak partition from Pakistan created and settled in this village.
