Mansehra is a city in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan and the headquarters of Mansehra District. It is historically considered as the stronghold of the Swati tribe of Pashtuns.[3]
In 1820, the ruling Swatis were defeated and the larger part of Pakhli came under Man Singh. During the Sikh-era, Mansehra, from a small regional town, became an important city in regards to trade and its strategic location within Hazara.
