Most of the current inhabitants of the area are migrants from [[Downtown Srinagar]].<ref>https://www.indpincode.in</ref> During the project of widening the roads in Downtown, numerous houses obstructing the widening of roads were shattered down. The homeless people were given plots of land by state government in neighbouring areas including Buchpora and [[Soura]].<ref>List of Government Housing Colonies in Srinagar/Government Housing Colonies of Soura and Buchpora by Srinagar Municipal Corporation, Karan Nagar</ref> Thus government housing colonies were constructed in these areas. there are many areas adjacent to this area, Illahi bagh, Rang pora, Umerhaira, are some of them.
