Government Sadiq Dane High School, also known as S. D. High School, is a high school located in Bahawalpur, Punjab, Pakistan.[1][2] It is the largest school in Bahawalpur with over 2000 students currently[when?] enrolled. The building of the school is well known for its clocks.[1][3]
History
[edit | edit source]The S.D. High School building, completed in 1906, initially housed the first-ever college, named Sadiq Egerton College Bahawalpur, within the territory stretching from Bahawalpur to Sadiqabad and Mandi Mcleod Ganj in the Bahawalnagar district.[1] It bore the names of the late Nawab Muhammad Sadiq Khan Abbasi and Robert Eyles Egerton, then Lt Governor of Punjab.[1] Following the college's relocation in 1952-53, the building was repurposed for the S.D. High School, which moved from the nearby Government Technical High School.[1] It was initially known as Sadiq Darul Aqama.[4]
The building has a clock that was made by the Bing Bang Company of Britain.[5] The school was inaugurated by Louis Dane on February 13, 1911, and is named after him and Nawab of Bahawalpur.[5]
