each others and divided buroshall into two independent states nagar and hunza.moghlot
ruled nagar and kirkis ruled hunza.the river was declared as the border of princely
states nagar and hunza.the british fought a war in the nilt(a town of nagar)on 1889
till 1892 to control the administration of nagar,the war is called as jangeer-e-lay.in
