All These Photographs are Of Urdu, English and Gurmukhi commemorative stones and British times beautiful building of Shri Guru Nanak High School Mitha Tiwana District Khushab, Punjab, Pakistan. This school was Opened in 1865 A. D. The Gurmukhi inscription is very valuable. Dr. Subhash Parihar Sahib gives its English translation in this way:
It begins with a couplet of Saint Kabir which means: If I surrender to You what is already Yours, what does it cost me? ||203|| Guru Granth Saheb, page 1375.
After this it mwentions that "Rs. ten thousand donated by Sardar Sahib Sr. Sujan Singh, Sardar Sahib Sr. Sobha Singh, and Sardar Ujjal Singh of Hadali, for the building etc. of the dear Guru Nanak School. Samvat Nanakshahi 460", i.e. 1928-29 CE.
There is great possibility that Sardar Sujan Singh and Sardar Sobha Singh mentioned in this inscription were the grandfather and father respectively, of the renowned journalist Sardar Khushwant Singh. They did belong to village Hadali.
