Biography[edit | edit source]

Sadiq Muhammad Khan Bahadur was born in 1862. He became Nawab of Bahawalpur on 25 March 1866, after the death of his father Bahawal Khan IV. As he was still a minor, the British temporarily administered the region.[2] He was invested with full ruling powers at Derawar Fort on 28 November 1879. During his governance, he ordered for construction of many buildings in Bahawalpur including Daulat Khana,[3] Sadiq Garh Palace,[4] Noor Mahal[5] and Gulzar Mahal.[6]
