==History==<br />
The village of Purn was first settled around the year 1800 AD by Abdul Ahad Mir (son of the late Abdul Habib Mir), whose ancestors hailed from the nearby village of [[Kanihama]]. Today, Purn is home to approximately 45-50 households.<br />
Historically, the village was connected to other parts of the district by a single road leading to [http://village.org.in/Archanderhama Archanderhama]. However, in 2023, a new metal road under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) was completed, enhancing connectivity. This new road now links the village directly to Mazhom Railway Station and provides access to the Narbal-Gulmarg Road, significantly improving transportation and access to neighboring regions.<br />
Archaeological evidence suggests that the area was inhabited in ancient times. During excavations for farming purposes, various artifacts, such as terracotta vessels, have been discovered, indicating the presence of early settlers. It is believed that these ancient inhabitants might have abandoned the area due to its vulnerability to floods or, alternatively, might have been displaced or wiped out by a catastrophic event.<br />
The village [[google:Masjid+Bilal+Purni+Sadar+Shah&oq=Masjid+Bilal+Purni+Sadar+Shah&aqs=chrome..69i57j33.2080j0j9&client=ms-android-hmd-rev2&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8#trex=m t:lcl akp,rc f:,rc ludocids:16859417619718320468,rc q:Masjid%20Bilal%20Purni%20Sadar%20Shah,ru q:Masjid%20Bilal%20Purni%20Sadar%20Shah|''Purni Suder Shah'']] is named after Suder Shah, a Sufi saint who is believed to have lived in the area and is buried in a local graveyard. The name "Purn" derives from the Kashmiri word “purn”, which means "dwelling place," reflecting its historical role as a settlement.<br />
