| - Chak 217 GB (Urdu: چک نمبر ۲۱۷گ۔ب گجر پنڈ), or Gujjar Pind, is a suburban village of Tehsil Samundri in the District Faisalabad (Lyallpur) Punjab in Pakistan. The first known settlements in the village date between 1898 A.D. to 1920 A.D. The village comprises roughly 1,500 acres. Water is supplied by five irrigation channels, known locally as moga. The Gogera Branch irrigation canal is abbreviated to GB and irrigates this specific area. Neighboring villages are Chak No. 218 GB Vainspur to the east, Chak No. 213 GB Laadi Chak to the west, Chak No. 216 GB Jalalabad to the north, and Chak 478 & 475 GB Gidder Pindi to the southeast. Agriculture is the area's primary economic activity. Major crops (including wheat, sugarcane, corn, and cotton) are cultivated using old methods, resulting in poor yields. Almost four generations have lived in the village since the first residents settled there between 1898 A.D and 1920 A.D. Before settlement, it was barren land called baar, a word which means "rain" in the Persian language. Water was supplied only by irrigation, and portable containers stored rainwater. There were three main baars in what is now the Punjab area. Chak 217 GB is in Saandal Baar, which is named after the grandfather of Abdullah Bhatti (Dulla Bhatti). Due to Sikh rule predating British rule in Punjab, most landlords were Sikhs, who held supremacy in the region. The village is accessible by road from the Tehsil Samundari district, from the east, and the west. Samundari City is 14 km away from the village. (en)
