History and demographics

The village was founded by Chaudry Kalu Bhatia who belonged to Gujjar caste. The name of village was accordingly coined in his name. He had three sons namely Chaudhry Bandu, Chaudhry Jhandu and Chaudhry Elahi Bukhsh. Their children migrated to western Punjab in 1947 on partition, living in districts Vehari, Sheikhupura and Sarghodha as landlords and businessmen. Most of them are highly educated and serving the Government in different capacities.
