Dokota, Agricultural village in Mailsi Tehsil, Vehari District of Punjab, Pakistan.
Dokota is a village in Mailsi tehsil, Vehari District, Punjab, surrounded by fields of cotton, wheat, rice, and corn. It sits roughly 70 kilometers southeast of Multan along the Mailsi-Multan Road.
Following the 1947 partition, many Punjabi families established a new settlement in the village after relocating from East Punjab. This resettlement shaped the demographic foundation of the place.
The village is home to Punjabi and Saraiki-speaking communities, with many residents from the Rajput caste group. These groups shape the daily rhythms and social fabric of the place.
The village has small shops, schools, and food businesses serving residents with basic daily needs. Visitors should expect simple infrastructure oriented toward local activities rather than tourism.
A development project from 2010 resulted in construction of a road connecting the village to the nearest hospital. This infrastructure improvement made health services more accessible to residents.
