Okanwala Bangla

History of Okanwala Bangla, refers back to the British Raj. The name of this small area in Chichawatni is bilingual. In Urdu Okan means a kind of tree, and wala means 'having'. So it means an area which has a lot of Okan trees. It's second name Bangla is taken from English. Since there used to be the British officers rest house in this area amid Okan Trees it is called Okanwala Bangla. Many historical buildings of the time of the British Raj are still present there especially the British officers' rest house.
