PREFACE
The process of urban ization and continuous expansion of the cities 10 term of
population size have resulted in ever increasing civic problems. This, naturally , necessitates
the availability of data pertaining to urban centres for planned development of the area and to
solve other rele vant issues .
Although , the regul ar census publications of 1998 Census i.e . , District/ Provincial
and National Reports carry data by rural/ urban areas in all the tables whi le two tables pertain
to urba_n localities in the district/ province but that does not replace the demand for exclusive
tabulation of data for urban centres , especially the big cities . Therefore , it seemed appropriate
to publi sh separate City Reports , initially for big cities, hav ing population of 3 lac and above.
The City Report consists of five parts viz (I) Write up which carries general
description of the city, (II) Broad analysis of population data, (III) !lroad analysis of ho~sing
data, Part -IV comprises statistical tables whik part-V provides additional information in the
form of annexures .
I hope thi s report wil l be a valuable addition to the stock of census publications
and will serve its purpose.

1. t INTRODUCTION
Sialkot city is one of the most anci ent c ity of Punjab . It is said to have been founded
by Raja Sul or Sala of Pando dynasty hence called Sulkot. which subsequently changed to
Sialkot. It was about the time of Vikrama Ditya that Raja Sahvan built a fort and established
the principality of Sialkot. Sialkot is located about 120 kilomete rs north cas t of Lahore and
about 53 kilom eters east of Gujran\';·ala .
1.2 HISTORY
The popular belief is that Sialkot was founded in th e n: ig n of Vikrama Di tya of
Ujjain by Raja Sal ivahan or Salban, \\"ho built the fort and c ity and gave th e place its present
name . Legend has it that Sali vahan had two so ns. one Po ran who was killed by the
instrum entality of a wicked s tep-mother and thro\\"n into a well. still the resort of pi lg rim s near
Sialkot, the other Raja Ras al u the great mythical he ro of Punjab folk talc s, who is said to have
reigned at Sialkot. It has recently bee n suggested that Sialkot is th e site of the anc ient town of
Sakal a.
Sakala which has recently been idcnt i fied \Yi th Sialkot c ity was the cap ital of
Madras in th e lat e Vadic period . It \\as a lso the capital of the Greek k ings of the house of
Euthydemus and th e place of reside nce of Me nadc r . Aftt:r th e invasion by Huns in the las t
quarte r of 5th century A. D . . it became the capi tal of Tormana. In th e earli est days, the country
was a waste la nd and studded with thick forests and inhabited by a pastoral race cal led Yahars
or Yi rs. who li ved c hi e fl y along th e banks o f th e river. Sometimes afte r the in vas ion of
Alexander, peop le from remote parts of Indi a settled in thi s area. a mongst \\"horn were Sh un .
Hun and Dall. sons of Raja Rachar Rao of Rajputana.
In the time of Vik ram a Ditya th t: Shun and Dall we re recorded as the most po\Ye rfu l
tribes in th e Punj ab. After the flood. the popular be li e f is that the whole country rema ined
uninhabited for a tho usand years . The firs t account of its restoration dates from the t ime \vhen
Sialkot formed a part of Kashm ir, under Raja Sum Da tt. It was about th e time of Vikrama
Ditya king of Ujjain that Raja Salwan built a fort and es tabli shed the principality of Sialkot.
He was of the Sia caste and th e name of Sialkot is attributed by one account to this orig in .
Raja Rasalu succeeded hi s father Raja Sal wan \Yho took a dis tingu ished part in the
events of hi s tim e. About 360 A .D, one Raja Hu di believed to be chief of t he Ghakkar t ribe ,
est ab li s hed himsel f in the co unt ry to th e \vest of Jhe lum and contracted an a lliance with Rasalu
whom he induced to g ive his daughter in marriage. Rasalu failed to fulfil the promi se and Raja

After the death of Raja Rasalu in abo ut A. D. -WO. the co un try is sai d to h ~n e fo l kn under the
c urse of hi s brothe r. Poran . From that tim e on\\·ard for about 300 years the country remained

Sialkot was demolished by a large army under Ra.ia Niraut s uppo rted by th e tribesmen o f

2.2. l Sex Ratio
The sex ratio (number of males per hundred fomaks) 1s an impo rtant
demographic variable . It is primaril y affected bY ratio at birth and later b\' sex
differentials in mo rtality, migration and enumeration biases . The sex ratio in turn affrcts
fertility , mo rtality, mig ration a nd labour force composition .
The sex compos ition of the populati.on of Sialkot c ity in 1998 Census s hows that
th ere arc 117 males against every 100 females. The high sex ratio is a g eneral trend observed
in most of th e urban ccntn:s which is due to sex selective migration in search of better j o bs.
higher education and other social norms.
The sex ratio widely differs at various age groups. It is the highest. 1.59 for age
grou p 30-34 and the lowes t for age group 15-19, ,,·hi ch do not fo rm a uniform patte rn . The
sex ratio in cantonment a rea is con s iderab ly high especially in the ages bctm.:cn 20 to 44
because of higher number of s ing le population in the Cantonment area . The fo llowing table

2.2.2 Age Structure
Every popu lation forms a unique age structure based o n its hi s torical population
phe nomena i.e . . inti.:raction of birth s, death s and migration \vhich has a cons iderable impact
on its de mog raphic behaviour and emerg ing socio-economic characterist ics .
In the 1998 Cen s us_ di s tribution of population by selective age g roups shows that
proportion of children und e r te n years of age was 23.10 percent a nd that o f under five years
11 .03 percent incl udin g 2.00 pe rcent infants . The po pulation unde r fifteen years was 35 .3 1
percent. o f th e total population . The propo rti on o f popul at.ion in work in g age groups i .e .,
15-6-f years was 61 .09 percent wh il e senior citizen , 65 years and above. comp ri sed 3 .59
percent. Thus th e age d ependency ratio (the rat io of persons in d e pendent ages i .e .. under 15
and abo\·e 64 years to tho se in eco no mically producti ve ages i .e ... 15 -64 years) comes to be
63 .69 percent fo r the c ity. ''hich was 69.52 percent in Muni cipal Co rp o ration and o nly 36 .97
