was a historical day that Bacha Khan (1890 – 1988) was born in the strategic tall mountain of KPk. land located on the border of the  Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Abdul Ghaffar Khan is also known as, Fakhr-e-Afghan, Bacha Khan and non-violent Muslim soldier of Islam and a man to match his mountains. When Ghaffar Khan was died, the flags were lowered in Afghanistan, India and Pakistan because the people of these countries have respect for Bacha Khan services to earn freedom.

Bacha Khan is standing tall in the line of the finniest leaders of the world such as Mahatma Gandhi, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Martin Lutther King and Nelson Mandela in many aspects. Ghaffar Khan’s exclusivity was eminent due to the fact that he was born and raised in the mountainous region of Pashtun land that was agrarian and encountered with family and tribal feuds. Bacha Khan was sanded to see such difficulties and hardships.

The 6’5”charismatic Khan stood up to overcome it through out community mobilization, education, social and economic reforms. 

Bacha Khan raised over 100,000 strong non-violent army of mens, womens, and youth

(the Khudai Khidmatgar,) or servants of God — drawn from the multi-ethnic traditions of the subcontinent (currently India, Pakistan and Bangladesh) and Afghanistan. These servants of God included the diverse cultures, ethnicities, nationalities and religions such as Muslims, as well as Hindus, Christians, Parsees, Sikhs, and Buddhists. They came together in the cause of peace, social justice, religious tolerance, freedom and human dignity for all people.

Ghaffar Khan was beaten, jailed, and exiled by the British rulers of United India because they thought that his reforms may be converted into a freedom movement if he was allowed to reform his people. When his reforms were blocked, his servants of God movement joined hands with Indian National Congress to raise a voice for their victimization. And there they started struggle for the freedom of India from the British rulers.
