All About Karlu
Karlu Baloch | Karlu is a Baloch Sub Caste of Seraiki speaking people living in Multan, Dera Ismail Khan and Bhakar Districts of Punjab and KP. Their native villages in these Districts are Moza Karlu in Tehsil Darya Khan and Karluwala in Hyderabad Mankera, Bhakar. Moza Karlu is located near indus river in Darya Khan Tehsil of District Bhakkar. Oldest available record of the Revenue State (Moza Karlu) is held with Revenue Department of Bhakkar which was a Tehsil of District Mianwali and later became a District. According to the record (document with translation below) in early 1700s, before the advent of British Indian Government, the area was ruled by Baloch Local Government, during which Himmat Khan Karlu (addressed as Zameendar or Landlord) was alloted 3 thousand acres of lands by Baloch Rulers of that time. The place came to be known as 'Moza Karlu'. Later it was transferred / distributed among Himmat Khan's Children. The Moza was rich with crops and fruit orchards untill destroyed by massive floods of 1824 (after the floods British Government formed a bund and present city of Dera Ismail Khan was founded on its west). Karlus of the area got settled on both sides of River Indus and the members kept selling their lands. Today people of Karlu Tribe are an active society and it's members are thriving in various fields of life. They are farmers, teachers, public servants, businessmen, engineers and army officers. Most importantly they are educated, kind, patriotic and fun loving people. Their favourite foods are traditionally prepared Sobat and Pulao.

DeleteNice work. Record keeping was started by Britishers when they colonized India. This history very much resembles the work done by Britishers every where else. Wherever they went they put down the record in writing. Mentioning brief background and writing about habbits of the locals. You are lucky that you found it.
ReplyDeletethanks absolutely

ReplyDeleteI have seen the revenue records of Tehsil Darya Khan District Bhakkar in 1988. There are records up to Himat Khan Karlo. Some officers have written the word Karlo in the record and some have written the word Kalro. The people of Dera Ismail Khan, Darya Khan and District Bhakkar write Karlo but in the revenue records it has been written as Jat Karlo. So the record needs to be corrected. Nationality should be written and read correctly by Karlo Baloch,so that record could be corrected accordingly.
ReplyDeleteMasha Allah good information

ReplyDeleteگورنمنٹ برطانیہ نے رقبہ کی وجہ سے تین قوموں ( کارلو، سہیڑ اور ڈھانڈلہ) خاندانوں کو خان کا لقب دیا تھا ۔ علاؤہ ازیں ہمت خان کارلو کو خدا وند کریم غریقِ رحمت کرے ، اس وقت کے بلوچ حکمران اسماعیل خان ہوتی بلوچ نے موضع کارلو کے علاؤہ موضع جھوک کچھی، پنجاب اور موضع کچی پائندہ خان وغیرہ kpk تک ایک بہت بڑی جاگیر عطاء کی تھی۔ جو بعد میں انہوں نے اپنے تین بیٹوں میں تقسیم کر دی تھی ۔ اس وقت موضع نہیں تھے۔ موضع بعد میں معرض وجود میں آئے۔
ReplyDeleteاسماعیل خان ہوت بلوچ اس وقت کے حکمران نے موضع کارلو ،جھوک کچھی پنجاب اور موضع کچی پائندہ خان ڈیرہ اسماعیل خان ۔ kpk میں جاگیر عطاء کی ۔
Deleteتب سے اب تک ان تینوں مواقع کی نمبرداری کارلو خاندان کے پاس چلی آ رہی ہیں ۔ سعادت خان کارلو، موضع کارلو دریا خان ، بھکر ۔
