Fath Khan Jat

Fath Khan Jat was a warrior of Kot Kobulah.

History

During the period of confusion intervening between the death of Babur and the accession of Sher Shah to the throne of Delhi, one bold robber Chief Fath Khan Jat of Kot Kobulah devastated the whole tract of Lakhi Jungle, and kept in ferment the high roads from Lahor to Panipat. Haibat Khan Nlazi; governor of the Punjab on behalf of Sher Shah, crushed him after a severe campaign.^[23]

The Bhatinda city came under the control of The Sidhu-Brars, who were thrown out of Bathinda during Lodhi's rule, but were restored to the area by Babur. A few years later, Roop Chand, a Sikh, came into the scene of Punjab history. Phul, the second son of Roop Chand, started the practice of langar (community kitchen) for the people in the Lakhi Jungle area.
