Heera Singh Sandhu was born into Jat Sikh family in 1706 in the region of Punjab in what is now Pakistan. He took possession of the lands surrounding his native village, Baherwal Kalan and countryside of Kasur which was located in the Nakka country South of Majha Region. He took Amrit Sanchar (Sikh Baptism) in 1731. Nakka in Punjabi means border or some sort of a gateway and the Nakka country was located between the Ravi and Sutlej south of Lahore.

Heera Singh Sandhu's son, Dal Singh Sandhu, was a minor, so his nephew, Nar Singh Sandhu son of Heera Singh Sandhu's brother Natha Singh Sandhu, succeeded him as leader of the misl. Natha Singh is the father of Sardar Ran Singh Nakai and grandfather of Maharani Datar Kaur, wife of Maharaja Ranjit Singh and mother of Maharaja Kharak Singh.[citation needed]
