History
[edit]According to local tribal history, Mir Jalal Khan had four sons—Rind, Lashari, Hoth, and Korai—and a daughter named Jato. Hoth had two sons named Chandio and Kalmati. The Janwari tribe traces its origin to the Kalmati line. Sardar Ghulam Shah, son of Daulat Khan Kalmati, was a well-known leader of this family who owned lands in the Mirpur Sakro region. [1] [2]
The Janwari are closely connected with the Chandio tribe. During the Kalhora period, family members like Ali Bakhsh and Sabar Khan served as court officials. Members of the tribe also joined the forces of the Talpur Mirs and fought in local battles at Kharari, Battle of Miani, and Battle Of Dubbo. Dheran Khan Chandio and his nephew were close associates of Nawab Ghaibi Sardar Khan Chandio I.
Shaam Faqir (I), a traditional poet who composed verses in Balochi about tribal bravery, belonged to the Janwari Chandio branch and died around 800 AH (1397 AD). In the Kachho area of Upper Sindh, there is an old cemetery named Janwari Chandian Jo Maqam where members of different sub-clans are buried.[3]
