During insurgency period of Swat, People of Manglawar suffered from Terrorism of extremists. But rather than other parts of Swat, Manglawar was very less suffered. Because of less involvement of people in such instances. When Pakistani military agrees on doing operation against terrorism, people of Manglawar migrated from their homes to Peshawar, Mardan, Swabi, Nowshera etc. First they migrated on 25 Oct, 2007 during Operation Rah-e-Haq, and then on 16 May 2009 during operation Operation Rah-e-Rast
