The revered Sufi saint, Hazrat Syed Muhammad Usman Marwandi, also known as Lal Shahbaz Qalandar, is being honored today in Sehwan with the start of the 772nd Urs ceremonies.
The Urs festivities were officially launched by Governor Sindh, Kamran Tessori, who paid his respects to Lal Shahbaz Qalandar by offering floral tributes at the holy shrine. Secretary of Religious Affairs Sindh, Manzoor Mahesar, warmly welcomed the governor. Other notable attendees included Commissioner Hyderabad, Khalid Hyder Shah, and Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Hyderabad, Tariq Razzaq Dahar.
