I REALLY LOVE THE PIND DADAN KHAN

Another important feature of Pind Dadan Khan is its honour that Al-Bairuni,the famous mathematician determined the centre of earth around this town. He set up an observatory in the nearby salt-range. The boys college in Pind Dadan Khan is also named after Al-Bairuni. Revealed history also confirms that older name of this town was Shamsabad. It is perhaps after the arrival of Dadan Khan, a devout saint that the name changed to Pind Dadan Khan, i.e the town of Dadan Khan. Dadan Khan is buried near the Government Boys School. Pind Dadan Khan has also been famous for athletics. The famous "Kabadi" is a popular athletics game. The town has produced famous players of Kabadi for many decades. This portion is added by Gulzar Ahmed Khwaja, who hails from Pind Dadan Khan and has attended the famous Government Boys School.

Pind Dadan Khan has contributed a lot in the shape of human resource, specially to the armed forces. However, the area has been neglected since long. Condition of the town is deteriorating day by day. There is a need for a sincere leadership who can look after the village and bring it to a better shape. Arshad.

There are very talented players of many sports like cricket,football,hockey,kabbadi(a famous game of Subcontinent)etc but government is not giving any credit to these sportsmen.

I being the son of the soil extend my heatiest congratulations and heart felt gratitude to Prof. Gulzar Khawaja who has taken this initiative to put very vital facts of Pind Dadan Khan on this site for the benefit of readers.It is worth-mentioning that most of people of this small town have good brawn that's why they fit in uniform jobs like armed forces and police etc but the those few who become academics or other professionals always touch the top in their fields; Prof. Khawaja himself is the best example. The locals often leave the city and settle in the big towns and turn a deaf ear to the burning problems of the town. Establishement of Pind Dadan Khan Welfare Society in Islamabad by a few eminent sons of the soil working and living in the twin cities,is a great breakthrough. This organization is making great progress and has provided an excellent forum of meeting and resolving common issues. among its founders and members are the eminent professionals, executives, civil and military officers, lawyers and academics. Syed Munir Hussain Bukhari Director Finance Shifa International Hospital Islamabad is the greatest contributor and patron of this non-profit organization who may be contacted for any assistance and information in this regard. Prof. Afzal Awan Canada.
