Before Pakistan's independence in 1947, the village was home to Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. After independence, Hindu and Sikh communities migrated to India, while Muslim refugees from India settled in Syed Matto Shah. The current population of the union council includes Muslim and Hindu communities, with tribes such as Kolhis, Sathias, Solangi, and Siddis (also known as Qambranis or Sheedis).
