History
The name is translated to Sanskrit as Bhagala or Bhagoo.
The tribe is also mentioned during the Arab attack on Sindh in the 7th century A.D. The ruler of the lands at the time of Mohammad Bin Kasim’s invasion of Sindh was the chief of the Bhangu tribe, Kaka. The Bhangus were the lords of "Budhiya" around present day Sehwan, Sindh, Pakistan. Kaka was the son of Kotal, and the grandson of Bhandargu Bhangu, a Jat of the Bhangu tribe. The members of the Bhangu tribe were the follower of the Buddhist faith as most of the Jat tribes were around the 7th century AD.
The Bhangu tribe held the area around Shorkot. The Bhangus were later displaced by the migration of Sials into Jhang. The Sials were subjects of the Bhangu chiefs until the beginning of the 16th century AD.
