Notes
^1941 figures are for Kot Addu tehsil of Muzaffargarh District, which roughly corresponds to present-day Kot Addu district. Historic district borders may not be an exact match in the present-day due to various bifurcations to district borders — which since created new districts — throughout the historic Punjab Province region during the post-independence era that have taken into account population increases.
