The Tanoli also known as Tano Khail and Tonzai ( Pashto تِینولی ، تون ذی ، تنوخیل ) Hindko ( تنولی ) is a Pashtun tribe mainly living in the Hazara division (Abbottabad, Haripur, Mansehra, Battagram, Tanawal and Torghar)Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, as well as in Swabi, Buner, Quetta, Karachi, Islamabad, and Kashmir Pakistan.[1][2] Tanolis also present in Afghanishtan and India. Some of them moved to India before Independence of Pakistan and India .[3] They never submitted to the British colonial rule in the 1840s.[2][page needed] They have two major divisions, namely Palaal (پل آل) and Hindaal (ہند آل).[4] In present day, the majority of the Tanolis speak the Hindko language but some living in Swabi, Battagram, Torghar, and Buner speaks Pashto.
Genetics
A genetic analysis of tribes residing in Buner and Swabi found that the most prevalent Y chromosomal haplogroup among the Tanoli is R1b.[5] Many other castes such as Abbasids, Mughals, Barlas Turks and Rajputs have pasted false information about the Tanolis , that the Tanoli is from them, which is 100% wrong. The R1b haplogroup has been found to be abundant in the DNA of the Tanolis, which has no distant resemblance to these tribes, Abbasids, Turks, Mughals and Rajputs.
