Korey Koot

Korey Kot (Nastaliq: کوڑے کوٹ) is a village in Sargodha District, Punjab, Pakistan, located near Tehsil Kot Momin. With a population of approximately 10.000, the village derives its name from the ancient Korey and Koot tribes who inhabited the area centuries ago. Local legend suggests the original settlement was flooded by the Chenab River, which once flowed nearby. The current inhabitants trace their ancestry to Naserpur, a neighboring village dating back to 1150 CE.
