King Porus
Alexander the Great (356 BCE - 323 BCE) came to the Sahiwal region in 326 BCE. He conquered reigning local leaders such as King Porus. During his Mallian Campaign of 326 BCE, Alexander followed his retreating opponents, the Mallians, to the city of Multan. The village of "Malli" in Kamalia Tehsil, is reminiscent in name.
