Nara Mughlan
Nara Mughlan is a tiny village situated on the Potohar Plateau in Northern Punjab, approximately 80 km from Islamabad, Pakistan. It can be accessed from the M-2 motorway as well as from Grand Trunk (GT) Road, Islamabad – Lahore. Its distance from Chakwal city is about 39–40 km (on Jhelum – Chakwal Road) and it lies beside the Rajian oil fields. A by-road originating from the main road, 3–4 km ahead of village Mulhal Mughlan, leads directly to the village Nara Mughlan. The road passes through the Rajian oil fields which are located on the outskirts of the village. Nara Mughlan is bounded by villages Joorh in the North, Jand in the West, Chauntariyan in the South and Jhelum – Chakwal Road in the East.
Nara Mughlan is a small rural habitation and is almost about 4–5 centuries old as per the local recollections. Originally its name was Nara Chauntrian which still appears in the Land Revenue documents. Major population of Nara Mughlan is made up of the Mughals Clan few Rajput families and in the Khanqa area residents belong to Mehiwal who came when Syed Feroz Shah Sherazi came locally, they relied on Government jobs and excelled really well to higher ranks in Civil and Military Services. The Mughals came to this area during the reign of Zaheer uddin Babar. Kassars or Mughal Kassars is a Mughal tribe that settled in this area during that time. Now they mainly occupy the Northern part of Dhani called Babial and Chaupeda. Presently, various branches of the Mughal clan and Mirza families live in this region.

The inhabitants at large speak Punjabi dialect of Potohari.
According to the 1998 census, Chakwal is one of the most rural districts of Punjab.
Nara Mughlan is a typical rural habitation with limited social/educational facilities. Majority of the people either join the defense/police force or go abroad in search of livelihood to USA/UK. People are predominantly divided on the political front. Some support the Muslim League, some the Peoples Party and some the Tehreek-e-Insaf.
Potohar Organization for Development Advocacy is a local NGO which is currently active in Nara Mughlan, since 2003. Development of rural education systems and awareness of women rights are two of the major fields this organization is working on. PODA has opened a primary school for children in the village and is helping women learn some basic skills like embroidery and paper machete art. The handicrafts created by these talented women are sold under the name of “Sahara Handicrafts”.
PODA is also helping farmers on the agricultural front and advising them regarding various agricultural problems.
The village construction consists mainly of brick masonry mingled with some concrete and mud structures as well. There are approximately 200–300 houses in the village and most are provided with electricity. These houses are congested with a lot of people living inside them. There are three graveyards in the village as well. These graveyards are small and scattered. Tomb of Saint Feroz Shah Sherazi is also located in the village.
