Yazman is primarily called as a Gateway to the Great Desert of Cholistan. It is the largest Tehsil of District Bahawalpur on account of area. Yazman is a unique offspring of the process of colonization of the defunct state of Bahawalpur and it was named after a city of “Yazman” in a Syrian region of Balkh. Yazman is actually a seven to eight decades older city. The following three factors played a vital role in its colonization and hitherto development. 1-It is situated at a starting point of Cholistan, at a distance of 32 kilo meters from Bahawalpur (The capital of the ex-state of Bahawalpur and a commissionerate and divisional Headquarter after its merger into Pakistan) 2-The colonization as a result of the completion of Satluj Valley Project canal system. 3-An important station of the Cholistan or Colony Railway Line laid down from Samma Satta, Bahawalpur to Fort Abbas via Yazman. Yazman came into being because an administrative unit was required in the colony area of Cholistan. admin:mano billi
