Kharana Pir Ghazi (کھرانہ پیر غازی) is a village in Kharian Tehsil Gujrat District of Pakistan.[1] It is situated 1.5 kilometers away from the Kharian Kotla Road. Kharana and Pir Ghazi are two villages, Kharana is in the east and Pir Ghazi in the west with few houses and a Shrine of Pir Ghazi.
The majority of the population belongs to Awan Malik tribe. Until the late 1970s, agriculture and Army were the only fields where the people were working. Agriculture is a forgotten profession nowadays. Small land holdings and no proper source of irrigation have forced people to look for alternatives. From then on until the mid-1990s Middle East was the favourite destination for the workers. Now people from Kharana are working and living in Europe. Few are well settled and living with their families in Europe. Kharana Pir Ghazi has served nation with all its might in army navy and air force.
