Introduction

Union Council Silra surrounds Shahdadkot city from all the directions. It is one of the most important socio-political and cultural areas

of District Kamber-Shahdadkot. The UC is named after Silra tribe, a branch of Abro/ Samma origin of Sindhis. Sheikh Sadique Ali Sher

Ali Ansari (1901) describes Silra as the Slave Tribe. These tribesmen served as soldiers in Kalhora Army (1701-1783) of Sindh. They

were also encouraged by Kalhora Rulers to cultivate lands. The Silra tribe is found in Ghotki, Sukkur, Khairpur, Jacobabad, Shikarpur,

Larkana, Kamber Shahdadkot, Dadu, Nawabshah, Hyderabad, Umerkot and Karachi districts of Sindh. One of the ancestors of this

tribe founded Silra village near Shahdadkot in the early 18th Century A.D. Some of the Silra tribesmen have also been found in Jhang,

Rajanpur and Rahimyar Khan Districts of Punjab and in Jafferabad District of Balochistan. Some of the families of this tribe have also

settled in Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Jordan and other corners of the world. It is said that the first spiritual leader of the

most people of this tribe was Sakhi Shah Jamal Qureshi. His ancestors belonged to Mao Mubarak near Multan, Punjab. According to

some sources, he was born in 611 A.H/ 1214 A.D and died in 689 A.H/ 1290 A.D. His shrine stands in village Balhreji,UC Bagi Taluka

Dokri near Mohenjodaro, some 30 Kilometers in the south of Larkana. Some people of this tribe also consider Mian Ghulam Siddique

Mekan of Shahdadkot (1844-1905) and Pir Turab Ali Shah Rashidi (1857-1938) of Kamber as their religious leaders.

Division of Silra Tribe

The Silra tribe is divided in the following sub clans; 1) Dodani 2) Fazulani 3) Kandani 4) Chhatani 5) Malookani 6) Khabrani 7)

Bhanbhani 8) Mahmoodani 9) Bodani 10) Jhamtani 11) Thekrani 12) Jhandani 13) Hashimani 14) Hawelani 15) Jeani 16) Khosani 17)

Sirwahi 18) Koorai 19) Hamzani 20) Eidanai and 21) Thakurani and 22) Pathan Wahi. After the death of Mr. Rasool Bux Khan Silro

during British Governemnt of India (1843-1947) , Wadero Muhammad Ibrahim Silro was chief of Silra tribe until his death in 1950s. His

son Wadero Noor Muhammad Silro was selected as newly head of Silra tribe after his father’s death. He also died in 2005 at

Shahdadkot.

Historical Background

The Silra tribe developed itself during Kalhora (1701-1783) and Talpur (1783-1843) Rule of Sindh. Mir Sobdar Khan Talpur bestowed

Jagir of 800 Beegha upon Pir Fida Muhiudin Shah and Pir Nizamuddin Shah ( Shikarpur) in Deh Silra in 1833. E.B.Eastwick has

mentioned Pir Fida Muhiudin Shah in his book “Dry Leaves from Young Egypt”, published from London in 1849. After the Conquest

of Sindh by Sir Charles Napier in 1843, the various tribes of Kamber, Shahdadkot & Miro Khan including Silra, Kalhora, Sial, Lashari,

Reti, Mirbhars and Hindus selected Khan Bahadur Sirai Pir Bhux Khan Khuhawar-I, as their tribal chief. He obtained agricultural lands

of Koor Dato and equally distributed among all above tribes. Khan Bahadur Sirai Pir Bhux Khan Khuhawar-I was awarded a Certificate

of Merit by Governor General of Bombay for his valuable services as a loyal landlord on 1st January 1878. He died around 1900 and left

a son Alhaj Haji Muhammad Bux Khan Khuhawar I-who passed away in 1932 at Shahdadkot. The British Government of India

established an Agricultural & dairy farm in village Silra in 1901. It was spread on 350 Acres of land where people were given awareness

on the breeding of Buffaloes, Cows, Goats and the Sheep. The Sukkur Barrage started working from 1933 therefore all previous canals

including Koor Dato were cut off. The Government Primary School village Silra was founded in 1935.

After the creation of Pakistan (1947) this land was purchased by Haji Ghulam Nabi Magsi in 1, 20, 000 Rupees. There were 10 wells

besides this farm. At that time Silra, Pirzada, Syed, Brohi and Sheedi castes lived here.It is said that there were 40 houses and 3 Temples

of Hindu Community in the village Silra. Their Mukhi was Diwan Hazzari Mal who settled all disputes of Hindu Community with his

knowledge and wisdom. Village Silra was completely destroyed in the great flood of 1942. A blood feud arose between Fazulani and

Malookani sub clans of Silra tribe in 1943 in which 14 persons including males and females lost their lives from both sides. This blood

feud is locally known as the “Juwal Waro Jhero”or the Blood feud of Grain Bag. After recession of flood water of 1942 Sir Hugh Dow,

the Governor of Sindh visited Shahdadkot and Silra village along with Khan Bahadur Pir Bux Khan Khuhawar-II (1903-1979) and other

British officials. He announced the construction of Silra Model Village with 60 houses. A total amount of 24000 Rupees were spent on

this scheme. Mahraj Gopi Krishan (1910-1992) also supported flood victims at that time. Another flood hit Silra Village in 1948. Village

Koor Dato was founded by flood victims after the Bolan Flood in 1976 on the banks of ancient canal.

Scio-Political & Economic Conditions

Electricity was supplied in this village from 26th April 1981. The Silra village came to be known as Little Moscow during MRD

Movement in 1983 because of great political awareness for the restoration of democracy in the country.. PTCL started working from

1995. Government Girls Primary School was established in 2000. The total population of village Silra is 5000 people. Pirbhat, Indus

������ � �

Resource Centre (IRC), SRSO, SAROH, HRDS, Solidarites, Marie Stopes Society, Batool, Sindhu, MM Ibrahim Group, Sathi are working

in the area for Community Empowerment for a long time.

Government Facilities

Poverty is the most common feature and UC is lacking in Education and Health facilities. UC Silra has no Government Health facility.

Diarrhea, Fever and cough, Malaria, Hepatitis-B & C, Eye Infection and Cholera are very common diseases here. There is a small

number of LHVs, LHWs and TBAs in the area. There is no Disabled Persons Organization (DPO) in the Union Council but its residents

are members of Taluka Level DPO in Shahdadkot. Most of the area of this UC is irrigated by watercourses drawn from Sukkur Barrage.

The houses are built of mud and burnt bricks and people are engaged in Agriculture, Livestock rearing, Brick making and other labour.

Hand pumps are the second source of drinking water. Mostly the females and young girls of villages go for fetching water from the

long distances. They fill water through pitchers, canes and bottles. Water is used for drinking, cooking and washing purposes. Safe

Drinking water is the main issue of the area in all villages. Unemployment is a common issue. There are less Government Jobs and the

youth are facing many problems in their development and career building.

PWDs Baseline Survey

A joint venture of Sightsavers International and Human Resource Development Society (HRDS) Islamabad has started the project

“Ensuring Social Inclusion through Accessible Water and Sanitation” in three District Chitral, Mansehra in KPK and Shahdadkot in

Sindh from May 2012 with the goal to reduce social exclusion of PWDs with community-managed accessible and affordable WatSan

������ � �

services in three districts of Pakistan. In District Kamber Shahdadkot the office was established in May 2012 for the said project. �Union

Council Silra was selected from one of the four rapidly assessed union councils on the bases of findings from rapid assessment and

existing data. A baseline survey tool was developed and after consultation of all relevant stakeholders, it was finalized and translated

into Urdu. The baseline survey started to analyze the present status, needs and demands of PWDs by gender, age and disability type to

design inclusive WATSAN intervention in all villages of Silra Union Council. According to PWDs Baseline survey conducted by

Human Resource Development Society (HRDS) Area Office Shahdadkot (August 2012) there are 9402 HHs in Union Council Silra and

its total Population is 65814. This survey was conducted under the supervision of Javed Sheikh, District Coordinator HRDS Area Office
