چکوال ولیج پلیٹ فارم · Chakwal Village Platform

This is Dhok Pipli.

Dhok Pipli, also spelt Dhok Pipali, is a dhok, a small farmstead hamlet in District Chakwal, Punjab, Pakistan. It sits on the Potohar plateau, where the land is dry, cut by ravines, and farmed with rain-fed fields. Wheat and groundnut farming are part of the life of this plateau, and the Salt Range rises to the south.

Dhok Pipli lies about 15 km in a straight line from the M2 motorway at the Kallar Kahar interchange, about 16 km from Kallar Kahar lake, about 20 km from Chakwal city and about 21 km from Talagang. Across this land, many families have members serving in the army or working abroad.

The fuller story of this village, its families and its everyday life is still to be told, and the people of Dhok Pipli are the ones to tell it.

ایم ٹو موٹروے کے کلر کہار انٹرچینج سے ڈھوک پپلی تقریباً 15 کلومیٹر سیدھی لکیر میں ہے، اور چکوال شہر سے تقریباً 20 کلومیٹر۔ اس علاقے کے بہت سے گھرانوں کے افراد فوج میں خدمات انجام دیتے ہیں یا بیرونِ ملک کام کرتے ہیں۔ اس گاؤں کی پوری کہانی، اس کے گھرانے اور روزمرہ زندگی ابھی سنائی جانی باقی ہے، اور یہ کام ڈھوک پپلی کے لوگ ہی کریں گے۔
