According to historical references (A Glossary of the tribes & castes of Punjab by H. a Rose page 286) and city elders, the city was given its name "Phularwan" due to a caln / tribe who migrated from central India and go through this city which was known as Chabbah and Mandi. A small village/town/mohalla named "Phularwani" is also near city where the migrated king "Phularo" rested with his people. When Pakistan came into existence a large number of people Rajput,s from Rohtak and karnal disst in india replaced Hindu population who migrated to India.The power of this region mainly rest in the hands of Rajputs , Rao Rana who have the dominant lands in the whole area and have business spread over the city they also have political and social influence over whole area.The Lambardar of phullarwan is Rao Muhammad Ashraf Advocate (ex Nazim city) S/O Late Rao Wajid Ali Khan who is first elected Chairman muincipal commety .in 1949 ....and Mirza Nasar Mahmood is lambardar of Chack no 1 Ghakra .now UC Chairman is Rao Imran.The main problems of phularwan are health,education, lack of leadership and it is a ridiculous thing for me there is no playground for any sport.
