Culture and history
During the Indus Valley Civilization, the Sahiwal District was an agricultural region with woodlands. The Vedic period is marked by an Indo-Aryan culture that emerged from Indo-Iranian culture in Northern India. The province is nearly exclusively Muslim, with only a small Christian minority. Muslims made up 97.51 percent of the population, while Christians made up 2.36 percent. The literacy rate in this area was 61.14 percent.
The vast majority of the people speak Punjabi as their first language. Urdu is the primary written language, followed by English. According to the 2017 census, 98.03 percent of the people speak Punjabi as their first language, with 1.17 percent speaking Urdu. The Gujar, Jatt, Rajput, Awan, and Arain are the predominant ethnic groupings. As a result of growing social mobility, shifting public perception, and intercaste marriages, the caste system is increasingly blurring. Agriculture is Sahiwal's primary source of revenue and employment. The main crops are wheat and cotton. Sugarcane, Rice, millet, oilseeds, corn (maize), legumes, fruits, and vegetables are among the other crops farmed. On the other hand, Poultry and Livestock are raised in large numbers.
When it comes to Sahiwal culture, the majority of people are kind, caring, and friendly. Eid is a good time to visit Sahiwal since the locals are hospitable and willing to meet new people. Every neighbor communicates with one another and finds ways to have fun. However, in the past, few women were seen on the streets of Sahiwal due to the conservative nature of the city's surroundings, which requires women to cover their heads when going out. In the past, no woman was seen driving a car in the city, but that is no longer the case. In the same way, Sahiwal has a smaller number of educational institutions.
