The village along with the town of Bewal is one of the most wealthiest rural places in Pakistan, the village has powerful and wealthy aristocratic lords and Dukes known locally as labardars who own extensive agricultural lands, and a state privileged status. The village is well developed with concrete roads, pavements and highways.[2] the village is dotted with expensive mansions, with full air-conditioning systems which is almost exclusively only used by the elite and the rich in Pakistan, because of the electricity being so expensive in the country due to the shortfall of energy production in the country.[3]
