    Your contributions for Tiens K.M.G camp sukkur.helped to people. The tower has historic value but nowadays it's become very congested, so much rush in peak hours. Located at the center of Sukkur, mostly mobile phone shops.

    Ghanta Ghar - the clock tower is one of the most important lankmarks in the city. Located in the centre of the city, it is surrounded by Victoria Market, Mehran Markaz, hotels and shopping malls. A Hindu businessman, Seth Wadho Mal Nebhau Mal Manjhari, constructed the tower to mark the silver jubilee of King George V. It was inaugurated by the then Collector of Sukkur, UM Mirchandani, in 1937. It is 90-feet high with four clocks that marked the passage of time on four sides. Once upon a time, the sounds of the tower’s bells resounded throughout the city especially at night, when life slowed down and the buzz of daily life muted. In 1937, it stood tall and alone with nothing but Victoria Market for company but as time wore on, more and more buildings cropped up. Victoria Market, though, continues to stand in solidarity with the tower, still supplying poultry, vegetables and fruits to people in Sukkur and adjoining areas. In the early 1950s, around eight shops were constructed right around Ghanta Ghar, an affront to its colonial majesty. With more business and less attention to repair, the clock continued to be worn down. Finally, around 15 years ago the then municipal corporation of Sukkur decided to take charge. They demolished these shops and carried out the necessary repairs and renovation. An iron fence was put up around the tower to discourage encroachments. However, all four clocks of the tower have been stolen, leaving it vacant and silent. Ghanta Ghar has always been at the centre of things. Protests are staged outside it and religious parties host their events there as well.

    Clock tower 🗼 can be called zero point of Sukkur.... Because It is the business hub of Sukkur. All the markets of Sukkur are around it.
