}}Nakkar Shamali (North)[1]

is a small village in Bhimber District with a population over 700, out of which nearly 80 are living abroad, mostly UK. Literacy rate is above 90%. Over 60 families reside in this village. A majority of the population are Jats. Over 50% family members, descendents of Chaudhary Imam Baksh, are living abroad. The Government High School Panjeri[2] is few kilometers from this village where people from many nearby villages get their primary and even secondary schooling. For higher studies, people move to the nearby cities, like Mirpur, Azad Kashmir. Masjid Peer Taj Din is the Jamia Masjid of the village.

Etymology

"Nakka" in southern part of Kashmir commonly means a high peak of a small hill or mountain. A village situated on a nakka is known as Gurah Nakka, Gora Nakka or simply Nakkar. Because this place is a high peak of a small hill, it was known as Nakka only. But as the population increased, the place got a shape of a village and with the passage of time derived its name as Nakkar. Another village across the valley towards south of it, at the same height, was also given the name of Nakkar. Till 1950's a confusion of "Parli Nakkar" existed. Either side of the Nakkar used to call other one as Parli Nakkar and it was difficult to understand which Nakkar is being referred. An educated notable, Chaudhary Fazal Karim of this village started giving its present recognition as Nakkar Shamali (North) and similarly the other side as Nakkar Janubi (South).

History

The history of the village is traced about 300 years back. In 1830's a local notable of the area (originally from a nearby village Kund), Chaudhary Imam Baksh became rebellious against tyranny of a jagirdar in the Sikh rule. He killed a Sikh jagirdar, became absconder and sneaked away in the mountains of Kus Gopal. In 1850's after having spent years in jungle, he came back and preferred to get settle in Nakkar. At that time Mochis, Kasaais, Parayis, Telis and Heers used to live in the village. In 1860's Bukhari Sayyids migrated from Srinagar and also got settled in the same village. In 1950's, a family of Darzis migrated from Nowshehra (held Kashmir) and became part of this village and in 1970's one of the families of Tarkhans from Kund too settled here.
