A metal road has been laid on south-eastern side of the main locality which leads to nearby Muhammadi Bazar along the Cantonement boundaries which boundary has been separated recently through a fence by Cantonement authorities. A paved path also leads to southern side to connect another metal road called Lota Road connecting Muhammadi Bazar and Village Chappar.

History

Village Raiya Chak Maddu derives its name by blend of two words i.e. “Raiya” and “Chak Maddu”. Basically the present location was called “Raiya” whereas “Chak Maddu” lied to its north eastern side near Historical Rohtas Road nearby Village Chittan opposite to present day Brick Kiln owned by Ch Arshad Mehmood Advocate on Chittan-Raiya Road where somebody can still trace the remains of such settlement.

The word Chak Maddu rhymes with the word Chak Bhuddo which is a nearby Village lying on the northern side of present Village Raiya Chak Maddu. Historically, the word “Chak” as an affix or suffix of the names of settlements or villages on the banks of some canal or water course indicates
a planned small colony whose inhabitants are of one or more clans, set up by some official arrangement by the government or ruler to promote agriculture. Such a settlement supported adjoining agricultural lands by irrigating them from the canal or water course. Therefore, Chak Maddu definitely was such sort of village lying nearby historical Grand Trunk Road (Sharah-e-Azam well-built since the era of King Sher Shah Suri of Muslim India).

History of Jhelum reveals that in the Ghakkhar Era, Rani of Ghakkhars officiating his minor son Bujj Shah as regent in this area, planned to complete a task of excavating a canal, later on to be called “Rani Bah or Ghakkhari Nehr”, originally proposed by her predecessor husband Sultan Ghakkhar Shah of Ghakkhar extraction. This canal originated from the right bank of River Jhelum nearby her capital town (Raj Gaddi) of the regency called Varyam presently located across the Mangla Dam

Agriculture

Majority of inhabitants got freehold. Adjoining soil of the main locality is fertile but sandy in and around the New Settlement. Local farmers, in the past, depended mostly on "persian wheel system" pulled by a yoke of oxen or seasonal rainfall to irrigate their agricultural fields which now has been replaced by modern Tubewells, changing from petrol or diesel to electric tubewells. Customary way of ploughing also has been replaced by modern tractors which saves time and hard work. Farmers yield different crops in different seasons including major crops of wheat and millet.

Religion

All inhabitants are Muslims by faith, majority of which follow Fiqa-e-Hanfi (Sunni Sect). No non-Muslim person ever resided here even prior to partition of British India.
