History
The Charik is located about 12 kilometres south of Moga, Punjab. During the late eighteenth century, Charik, then an enclave, was in the possession of its founder Sardar Mansur Singh. In 1799, Sardar Tara Singh of Ramonwala, tried to invade Charik, but Sardar Mansur Singh sought military assistance from Sardar Jodh Singh of Kalsia, and the invasion was duly averted.
In gratitude for this assistance at a critical juncture, Sardar Mansur Singh transferred half of his territory to Sardar Jodh Singh, but retained 6% of the total revenue of Charik as a proprietary right.
