Eventually the Saluva rulers (Jain) of Hadwalli, a town on the State Highway leading to Jog Falls brought this desirable Village under their control.

Most of the Nawayaths are economic migrants working in various foreign countries, especially Saudi Arabia and Dubai; as a result they have mastered Arabic too.
