They all settled here. Thereafter, Hindus and Sikhs of surrounding areas came here along with other Muslim tribes like Maliar, Awan, Choudhary, and other castes. During the British raj, these Muslim tribes (especially Syeds) were badly affected and their ownership of land and other resources started to decrease rapidly. After 1857, the Hindus took over control in terms of power but soon after independence Pakistan Muslims and especially Sadaat again emerged as powerful. As of now, there are many castes there.

Literacy rate of the village is very low, and only few persons are educated. The enmity amongst the residents is very high; there is heavy bloodshed right from beginning. Rural to urban migration is very significant due to poor law and order situation and lack of basic facilities.
