Most of the land surrounding the village belongs to the Sainswal Tribe [[Sardar]] ([[Zamindar]] of Mandwal) who live in the village. Another significant portion of the population is made up of small tribes serving the tribe's farms. In 1976, ex-Pakistani Prime Minister [[Benazir Bhutto]] announced reforms limiting land ownership along with a government takeover of over a hundred acres to distribute to landless peasants. Although this order of Bhutto went against Islamic rules and regulations, it was still enacted . However, governments at the center failed to introduce reforms in the age-old Sardari system. Although there had been some limited reforms in the years leading up to 1947, all major reforms came following independence. |
