Jatlan (Urdu: جاتلاں) is a bazaar that was once a village located on the northern bank of the Upper Jhelum Canal in the administrative region of Azad Kashmir, Pakistan.

Notably, political scientist Christopher Snedden has mentioned claims of a tragic event in Mirpur around November 25, during which it is alleged that approximately 20,000 non-Muslims lost their lives and an additional 2,500 individuals were reported as abducted.

Over 300 individuals who identified as non-Muslims sought refuge in the residence of a prominent Hindu figure located in Naka Guru, situated approximately four miles to the north of Jatlan.

Its climate is quite hot during the summer, where the maximum average temperature per annum is 40 degrees centrigrade, and other geographical conditions closely resemble those of Jhelum and Gujrat, adjoining districts of Pakistan.

The orphanage came into foundation after the 2005 Kashmir earthquake, Mohammed Akhtar and his friends created a charity and raised with over £118,000 in just five days to provide tents, blankets, food, and medicine for the worst affected areas.

Jatlan has many military and police checkpoints across the town constantly alert for threats to security and law enforcement violations related to vehicles.

The electricity supplying Jatlan originates from the Tarbela Dam and is prone to often load shedding without timetabled schedules disrupting flow of activities in the smooth operations for businesses across Pakistan.
