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 Nehr. Before going to Utmanzai Bacha Khan House, now called Wali Bagh, they stayed at Harichand Singh's home. References Union councils of Charsadda District Populated places in Charsadda District, Pakistan
