Once the Estate of Dasada belonged to us,
now we belong to it
Muzahid Malik, our promoter and owner, is a descendant of the ancient clan that once ruled this land. Over the generations, the land, its flora and fauna and its various changing topography have fascinated the Maliks, and it has driven them to explore and become experts in everything local, from its legends and its lore to handicrafts, from nature to animals and birds as well as its seasons.
Muzahid Malik is a treasure trove of knowledge about Dasada and the Little Rann. He loves to share his knowledge with the guests at Rann Riders.
A centuries-old relationship of mutual concern and respect
Many centuries ago, the Dasada area had a Talukdar from the Multani Malek race. The Multani Maleks traced their origins from the Multani Olia (saint) Khawja Baudin Zakaria is often called Bahawal Haq Multan.
Nasrudin, one of the descendants of this Olia, set out on a pilgrimage to Mecca in the middle of the thirtieth thirteenth century. Malek Bakhan, the son of Nasiruddin, ingratiated himself with the King of Ahmedabad, who took him under his patronage. In time, he deputed Malek Bhukan to put down a notorious outlaw named Raw Rattan. Malek took on the challenge and was successful in his mission. The King was pleased and rewarded Malek Bhukan with the Estate of Dasada.
Today, several centuries later, the times have changed, as has the administrative setup of the land. But what remains inviolate and unshakable is the Malek family's love of the land and people.
Muzahid Malik, the Owner of Rann Riders, is a descendant of this family, and he, like his forefathers before him, continues to invest his passion for the betterment of Dasada and its people. He maintains the centuries-old relationships with the communities of Dasada and its surroundings.
People often say nobody knows Dasada and its people, crafts, culture, and wildlife better than he does.
