13th Dec 1949, the first day of Miangul Abdul Haq Jahanzeb
as Wali of Swat State.
On 12th Dec 1949 the then Prime Minister of Pakistan Liaqat
Ali Khan tied the ceremonial Paggri on his head.
A rare example in the
history of kings and princes of a father leaving the throne to his son, when
actually he could very well have ruled for at least another ten years.
In the picture Miangul Abdul Wadud Bacha Sahib, Prime
Minister Liaqat Ali Khan, and Miangul Abdul Haq Jahanzeb are speaking on the occasion.
Today we the people of Swat need to exhibit the same spirit
of selflessness to regain our lost paradise.
