Dilawarabad
 |
Dilawarabad (Urdu: دلاور أباد) is a village in Chhachh Region of District Attock.[citation needed] It was founded in 1972 by Dilawar Khan. Dilawar Khan was from a Pashtun family of Mezad Khel. He had four sons and two daughters. Before establishing the village, Dilawar Khan worked in Hong Kong and returned to his homeland with the vision of founding a village, near to the GD Road, so live would be easier. He was supported in this idea by his brother-in-law, Abdul Sattar Khan (a farmer and a businessman), who joined him shortly after the village's founding. The population of Dilawarabad is predominantly Pashtun, with residents primarily speaking Pashto. Main Pashtun tribes includes Mezad Khel, Malizai, Sokani, Yousafzai and Bakshesh Khel.
