'Ahmad Pur Lamma' is a town in Rahim Yar Khan District, Pakistan, located a few kilometers from Sadiqabad. Lamma is a word used in the meaning of west, in Saraiki language, spoken in southern Punjab. This word was used to distinguish this town from Ahmad pur sharqia (eastern), neighbor town of Abbasid Nawabs of Bahawalpur. ==History== Nawabs of Bahawalpur developed it and named it after a local nawab, Ahmad Khan Abbassi, who reshaped the town in 1764, only to provide a vigilant watch over Sindhi Kalhora. In the mud-built fort, 200 soldiers were appointed. In its history, this army never fought against the Sindhi rulers. No important historical event ever took place here. Hindu traders and Muslim peasants made the town prosperous. Later, under Nawab Bahawal, a sub Tehsil was established here, which soon became a Tehsil. Revenue, which had been the problem of the town, continues even into the 21st century. When the British laid the railway line from Peshawar to Sindh through Bahawalpur State, it passed through Sadiqabad. Ahmad Pur Lamma was transformed into a Tehsil only to serve for a few years. Its status of tehsil was confiscated in the favour of another village, Sadiqabad, and later turned into a busy city. Ahmad Pur Lamma became a town committee, a sad incident for the locals. This is a state from which the town never recovered. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ahmed Pur Lamma」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
