Dhok Mughal Pathaan is a village[citation needed] in the Jhelum District of Punjab, Pakistan.[1]

The history of this village dates back to around 300 years ago, when two brothers from Afghanistan migrated to Punjab. The name of the village reflects the background of the 2 brothers, who were of Pathaan origin and settled in an area of Mughal majority. According to village elders, the village is in its 7th generation.[needs update?]

The majority of the people from this village are either abroad (UK, U.A.E., Saudi Arabia, Australia, America, New Zealand),[needs update?] are serving in the Pakistani army or are involved in farming.
