History
According to Captain Wace's Report of the Land Revenue Settlement of the Hazara district 1868-1874, the Boi tract was a cluster of 25 small hill villages, situated for the most part in the hills above the Kunhar river and was originally a part of the territory of the Bamba Chief of Muzaffarabad, Sultan Hussain Khan. Ousted from his Muzaffarabad territory in 1847 he thereafter resided at the village of Boi. He died in 1860, leaving his heir, Sultan Barkat Khan as Chief. Sultan Barkat khan was then succeeded by his son Sultan Hassan Ali Khan Sani, a great leader and witty ruler. Sultan was known for his justice and his people used to call him "Baba Sahib" (means; respectable). Sultan of Boe had two sons, Sultan Mohemmed Qayyum Khan and Kashif Khan (Ex Secretary Food KPK). Sultan Hassan Ali khan had a learned friend, an intellectual fellow and beloved son-in-law named Hussain Khan of Lawasi. Hussain Khan proved to be the most upright and disciplined person of the family. Hussain Khan of Lawasi has two sons Tanveer Hussain Khan of Palhotar and Naveed Hussain Khan (Ex Director Information Azad Kashmir). Coming to the rights of the tract, they were settled on the basis of the arrangement then found to be in force.The Boi villages are owned by small communities of cultivating proprietors of Abbasi (Sararra Abbasi living in Battangi and Tori, Dhund Abbasi), maliks, Awans, Karrals, Quraishis, Sardars, Sadats, Dhunds and other classes, excepting a few estates and lands which the chief has all along kept in his own possession and management.
