Haveli Tehsil

The History of Poonch District of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir had four tehsils: Haveli and Mendhar in the east, and Bagh and Sudhanoti in the west.

[1] As a result of the First Kashmir War of 1947, the Haveli tehsil got bifurcated, with the northern half passing into Pakistani control and the southern half remaining in Indian-administered Kashmir.

The population includes Paharis, Gujjars, Bakerwals and Kashmiris.

There are plans to construct a Jammu–Poonch line which will connect Jammu with Poonch with railways.

The tehsil is well-connected to other places in Jammu and Kashmir and India by the NH 144A and other intra-district roads.
