Mian Channu, in Khanewal district on the national highway between Lahore and Multan, is a cotton, wheat and dairy town near the historic site of Tulamba, with ginning factories, a grain market and many roadside businesses.

Tulamba and the Old Highway Town

Mian Channu grew around a railway station and the grand trunk route between Lahore and Multan, a few miles from the ancient fort mound at Tulamba. Today the N-5 carries a constant flow of trucks and buses past the town, and much of the town's business serves that traffic: truck stops, tyre shops, puncture and repair workshops, diesel stations and dhabas that open through the night. These businesses take most of their income in cash. A simple daily sales note, regular bank deposits and the invoices from tyre and parts suppliers are what turn that cash into a profit figure that FBR will accept.
