History
In the 19th century, Jhirk was the busiest river port and center of commercial activity inPresent
Jhirk's current situation is critical, with very few sources of income available. The population relies heavily on special aid and government grants. Due to the lack of water in the Kotri River, most residents live below the poverty line, leading to widespread abandonment of the area. Fishing and farming resources have been exhausted. Many graduates and young people from the ''Mallah'' fishing community either sell brambles or subsist on minimal rural incomes.References
