A historical location called Harichand has the name of Harichand Singh, a wealthy businessman renowned for his hospitality. The town has a distinctive past since residents think it was crucial to India's independence from British domination. Mahatma Gandhi once traveled to Upper Dir to meet with the Nawab of Dir, along with a few other Congress members. They were attacked by several individuals in Shergarh on the way back, so they decided to take a different path and traveled to Harichand via Dargai canal. Before going to Utmanzai Bacha Khan House, now a days known as Wali Bagh, they stayed at Harichand Singh's home.
