History edit

After the decline of the Mughal Empire, the Sikhs invaded and occupied Gujrat District. During the period of British rule, Hafiz Ghulam Muhammad Ch. was a landlord. He was a political, religious, spiritual and herbal practitioner of Karnana. Hafiz had helped and defended poor Karnanians against the powerful Hindu Khuttri Gujrat District, that had increased in population and importance.[citation needed]

After the division of the Indian subcontinent in 1947, the minority Hindus and Sikhs migrated to India and Muslim refugees from India settled in the Gujrat District. Today, mainly Muslim families live in Akhtar Karnana.[citation needed]
