The Bars on this map[clarification needed]

The Jungle Bar (Urdu: جنگل بار) is a region between the rivers Chenab and Ravi in Punjab, Pakistan.[1] It is located in the southern part of Rechna Doab. "Bar", in the local language, means a forested area where there are no resources for cultivation, like water. This Bar is named due to the area's jungle forested area.[clarification needed] Almost all the area of this bar were once part of Jhang District, but now is divided between the districts of Jhang and Toba Tek Singh.

Jungle Bar is a vast area with a number of Punjabi tribes.
