Hakim Pur

Hakim Pur is a village (Pind) 22km from the city of Phagwara within the Doaba region of Punjab in India. This village is in the Nawanshahr District, close to the boundary of Jullunder district. The closest towns are Mukandpur and Apra. The Purewal clan are the main Jat (people) residents of this Pind, though other clans including the Korpal clan reside there.

A large Gurudwara (Sikh Temple) is present as you enter Hakim Pur, with a smaller Hindu Temple also residing inside the village. The village has a close knit Hindu and Sikh community, during the 1947 partition of India, Hindu's gave many of their Son's to Sikh communities to become Sikh and fight against Muslims in the region.
