Khan Anwar Sikander Khan
Wednesday, April 26, 2017
While a great visionary, the Ameer of Bahawalpur, laid its structural foundations, a towering academician in Mr. Khan Anwar Sikander Khan became the architect of the edification of Sadiq Public School, Bahwalpur.
In 1954, Mr Khan Anwar Sikander Khan had recently retired from the covetous position of the principal at Aitchison College, Lahore, when he was hand picked by His Highness the later Ameer of Bahawalpur and his chief minister Makhdumzada Syed Hassan Mehmud, to initiate public school education at the nascent Sadiq Public School at Bahawalpur. He accepted the daunting task and toiled for the next 18 years to spread enlightenment in this educationally backward region of the country.
Born at Montgomery (now Sahiwal) on 1st October 1900, the young Khan Anwar Sikander Khan received his education at Lahore. He passed his matriculation exam in 1915 from the Rang Mahal Mission High School. Then he joined FC College and obtained his postgraduate degree in philosophy. Thereafter, the annals of Aitchison College bear testimony to his illustrious career in the educational field. He served the notable institution for 32 years, beginning in 1922. He rose successively to hold the posts of House Master, Head Master and Principal.
