Soreh Badshah (Pir Pagaro the 6th), father of current Pir Pagara, was hanged by the British Rulers on 20th March, 1943 in Central Jail Hyderabad.
During the British rule, Pir Pagaro declared his community “Hur” (free from British slavery). The British tried to crush the uprising and that started an armed resistance by Hurs. Ultimately the British passed the infamous law “Hur Act” where the entire Hur community was declared criminals and were ordered to be shot to death on sight.
