Mir Ahmad Yar Khan - Khan of Kalat | Biography in Urdu/Hindi | Biographics Urdu

Mir Sir Ahmad Yar Khan Ahmedzai GCIE (1902-1979) was the last Khan of Kalat, a semi-autonomous state within Britain's Indian Empire, serving from 10 September 1933 to 14 October 1955.Mir Ahmad Yar assumed his throne in 1933, and was decorated by the British in the 1936 New Year Honours as a Knight Grand Commander of the Most Eminent Order of the Indian Empire (GCIE).
He declared Kalat's independence from the British Empire on 15 August 1947, hoping British Prime Minister Clement Attlee would honor his pledge to respect the self-determination of the Princely States.

Yar Khan had served as an agent of British intelligence services in the 1920s, reporting on Russian influence and the spread of pro-Marxist sympathy among the poorer Baloch subjects. He appointed Douglas Fell, a Briton, Foreign Minister of Kalat in an effort to curry favor with the British government. Kalat was recognized by the UK and India but not Pakistan.
Despite his nationalist aspirations, Muhammad Ali Jinnah was Yar Khan's legal adviser in the early 1940s. Jinnah pressured Yar Khan to accept Pakistani rule but the Khan stalled for time. Out of impatience, on 27 March 1948, Pakistan formally annexed Kalat. In April, the military invaded, conquering the territory in a month.
