Remarks. 
This parganah was in the Ricnau Duab (sec 
below). 
Site unknown. I have been told verbally by 
native informants that this lay somewhere in the 
south-east of the Multan Tahsil. 
This is the Khai-buldi referred to on page 3. 
This should probably be read as * Metla ’ and 
held to refer to some part of the country held by 
the Metla Jats who are now scattered about in 
the north and east of the Multan Tahsil. 
The Ricnau Duab :—

This mahal lay in the Montgomery district 
apparently between the Deg and Ravi rivers. 
The Kharrals are still a powerful tribe on the 
Ravi. 
ditto. ditto. 
There is an insignificant village of this name a 
few miles west of Sarai Siddhii, through which 
the Ravi now runs. As it is called Khatpur 
Sandlia, from the Jat tribe of Sandhas, there is 
little reason to doubt its representing the village 
of the text. 
Not identified. The place was probably in the 
Montgomery district and the latter end of the 
name is probably ‘ Bliatti,’ and refers to the 
tribe of that name. 
This should be read * Kulambah.’ In later 
Imperial times the parganah north of the Ravi 
was known as Kulambah and that to the south 
as Tulambah. The tribe in possession was that 
of the Sahu Jats already mentioned under 
Tulambah (p. 4).

Rangpur ... Jat ... ... This is a well-known village near the Cinfib 
north of Muzaffargarli.

Raipur Kanki... Bliirn ... ... We should probably read * Raipur Kanakke.’ 
There is a village called Amlrpur Kanakke on 
the west bank of the Cinab.

(The Indus it must be remembered was much nearer to the Cinab then than it 
is now, hence the small number of mahals of the Duab.)
