Gujar Khan, a city with a population of approximately 200,000, is currently a tehsil within the district of Rawalpindi. As one of the largest and oldest tehsils in Punjab, Gujar Khan faces significant challenges due to its distance from the district headquarters in Rawalpindi. Residents frequently have to travel long distances for routine matters and petty litigation.
The people of Gujar Khan have long advocated for their tehsil to be upgraded to district status and it has the administrative capacity to manage district-level responsibilities effectively. In this regard, the towns of Daultala and Bewal within Gujar Khan could be designated as tehsils. This proposal is not merely a pipe dream but a legitimate demand based on the needs of the community.
