Chattroh

Chattroh is a small village in the Dadyal tehsil (sub-division) of Mirpur District in Azad Kashmir (a self-governing administrative division of Pakistan). Lying on the banks of the River Jhelum, ancient Chattroh was founded by the Rajput rulers of the valley of Indherhill.

Like much of Mirpur, Chattroh has deep connections with the UK. Many people originally from Chattroh have settled in urban centres of the UK such as Birmingham and Manchester. The Cheetham Hill district of Manchester is often referred to as 'New Chattroh' (by Mirpuris), reflecting the fact that a large number of people from Chattroh live there. The town of Rochdale in Greater Manchester also has a large number of people from Chattroh residing in it. The link with the UK is immediately obvious upon entering Chattroh, where one is greeted by palatial, hacienda-style residences, eerily empty, which have been built with remitted UK incomes. In this regard, Chattroh is no different from the rest of the Mirpur District, where links with the UK have precipitated various property booms since the 1960s.
