If Raja Daulat Khan is accepted as the etymology of Dalwal, then the ancient name of the place must have been something else.

High schools
(Mission High School Dalwal): Till the end of 1894 this old and somewhat historical place Dalwal continued to benefit from education through a District Board Primary School. The people of this remote town became aware of the outside world and became aware of the educational progress of their relatives in other towns. So they started sending their two or three boys every year to Pind Dadan Khan and Gah Bagah Bhawan and middle school in Chakwal and maybe in five or six years half a boy started going to Bhera and Gujarat high schools but mostly Due to the poverty of the parents and due to some lack of courage, they could not succeed in their intentions and would sit down very disappointed.
The people had a heartfelt wish that Varnectar Middle School should be built in Dalwal, because in that time Persian Nadal was considered the standard of higher education, so one of the leading people, Sahib Diwan Ho Shanak Roy, in 1894, fulfilled this wish of the people. intended So, the late Diwan wrote a petition and got it signed by the dignitaries of the village to the Deputy Commissioner of Jhelum District, Kwarsal, but the reply was that Dalwal is a minor place, so the petition is not worth considering. On this, the people of Mauza pleaded with several religious parties for this matter, but there was no encouragement from there either. Some of them replied that if one deposits rupees, we are ready to help; and from one half the answer came that the place is not suitable for higher education due to its distance from the mentioned railway station. This last answer was heartbreaking.
In March 1899, the chief of the area, Raja Faizullah Khan Sakna Dalwal, went to Rawalpindi. There a person deliberately inquired from him about the education of his sons, but from the answer it was found that Raja Sahib was very disappointed and mentioned about the futile efforts made by the people of Dalwal. The Inquisitor asked the person to send an application to the Inquisitor after one returns to Dalwal by preparing the name of the Super Mir Sahib (Senior Priest) of the Catholic Mission in Rawalpindi and getting the signatures of that learned person. He will translate it into English and submit it to the senior pastor.
He also gave Raja Sahib hope of success. Raja Sahib was fully convinced of this. On returning, one sent the application to one's advisor after getting the signatures of the people. He translated it into English and presented it to the senior pastor. The priest very kindly and lovingly told the petitioner that the area of Dalwal was under the jurisdiction of Qalam Vlahor and at the same time gave him a good recommendation to go to Lahore himself and present this petition to the service of the Lord Bishop. But on his arrival in Lahore, it was learned that the Lord Bishop no Ko had gone to Rawalpindi. When he came back to Rawalpindi, it was learned that the Bishop had returned to Lahore to see him. So that application was sent by post.
Lord Bishop Wright Rev. and Dr. Godfrey Pluckman were the rulers of Thilak Kalam Villahor at that time. This humble and compassionate request stirred his heart of compassion and human love as it was a plea for salvation from ignorance. Meanwhile, Raja Faizullah Khan also donated six and a half bighas of land for the construction of the school. So, within a week and a half, the Rajah's advisor received word from the Lord Bishop that he had decided to send two experienced and tried members of his council to Dalwal, their names were Father Leo and Father Vincent. He along with the adviser reached Dalwal on May 22, 1899 at ten o'clock in the night. Dr. Mehta Doni Chand Sahib Sargbashi Civil Surgeon's new well was brought down to Bara Dari.
The next morning, Raja Sahib along with his other colleagues went to the said well to welcome Father Sahib. The straightforward hospitality and hospitality of the simple-minded villagers, as well as the cool air of the pleasant Dalwal night, had a great effect on the Lord Bishop's representatives. First they were shown the land promised in the application. Then he was taken to the house of Raja Faizullah Khan. After discussing the important issue through the advisor and getting a written resolution, after resting for a few hours, Padri Sahib went to Lahore. There he presented an excellent report to the Lord Bishop.
Lord Bishop came to this conclusion after careful consideration that six and a half bighas of land is not enough for school and other buildings. Therefore, through this friend, he corresponded with Raja Sahib on this matter. Raja Faizullah Khan reduced this amount to two. The gracious Lord Bishop also gladly accepted the offer and then himself visited Dalwal on August 28, 1899 for ten days. He was accompanied by Reverend Mark, Brother Joe Kim, Brother Marrs and Raja Faizullah Khan's adviser as local secretary to the Lord Bishop, the associate of these elders.
The Lord Bishop found Dalwal to be essentially the same as the delegates had reported. Lord Bishop's generosity and interest increased. So, on his return to Lahore, he immediately sent Reverend Father Ethini and Brother Reverend Mars to start the construction of the school. The house was ready in just three months.
