- Muslim Jat clans of Jalandhar Division
-
Below is a list of Muslim Jat clans and their population of the Jalandhar Division of Punjab, drawn up for 1911 Census of India. In 1911, this division consisted of five districts, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Hoshiarpur, Firozpur and Ludhiana.[1] The appearance of a particular tribe as Jat in the list does not in itself confirm that the tribe is Jat or otherwise. Identity may change with time, and some groups in the list may no longer identify themselves as Jats. This list simply gives an historical distribution of Muslim Jat tribes in the Punjab province of India, a number of years prior to the partition of Punjab.[2][3] This list also includes the Muslim Jats found in the Indian princely states of Patiala, Nabha and Jind, which adjoined the old Jalandhar Division. Most of these Jats referred to themselves as Muleys. Almost all of the Jalandhar Division Muslim Jats moved to Pakistan after partition in 1947.
