History

Landi Arbab is home to few historical places like the Bachai Lara ("Royal Path"), said to have been traveled by a Mughal emperor. Another historical place in the village is Ghazi Baba, a Sufi saint tomb, situated beside Bachai Lara. Ghazi Baba ("Victorious Father") was mortally wounded in a battle in ancient times and was carried away by his horse to Bachai Lara where he died. Formerly, an urs (Sufi saint death anniversary) ceremony was held at his tomb, but the practice is defunct now. During the 1965 Indo-Pakistan War, the village was bombed by an Indian aircraft, and in response the brave villagers hit the war aircraft with small-arms fire, damaging the Mosque in the area of "Bara Atto" near the house of the late Fazal Rahim Jan. The house was also damaged, and thus violated the international rules of war.
