Baran's father, Malik Sulaiman, was a Malak (an honorary title given by Tribal Elders) of the Marmakhel tribes living in Loralai District.

Following the defeat of the Kakar Tribesmen in 1881–1882, British forces entered Loralai without resistance and occupied areas of Bori, Duki, Sanjavi and Mekhtar.

In 1938, Anjuman-i-Watan held a huge meeting in Loralai, along with Khan Abdul Ghaffar, one of the founders of the Pashtun resistance movement Khudai Khidmatgar.
