A large portion of the residents of Rajdhani who have emigrated to Europe reside in Huddersfield, Rochdale, and Oldham and surrounding areas in the United Kingdom. Rajdhani is located in the south of the Kotli District at an elevation of 620 metres (2,040ft). The village has a population of approximately 2500, and the dominant group in the village is Jatt.

Haji Farman Ali toured all over the world often bringing back souvenirs to share with friends and family.
