Umerkot Fort | A Fort in Pakistan Where Beauty was Caged. It is 7 AM. I am entering in Umerkot Fort. It is situated in Umerkot city in Sindh Province. Its area is about 17 acres. Umerkot city was founded by Amar Singh who was the first king of the Sumra dynasty. 1050-1350. Later It fort was occupied by Parmar Sodh, a Rajpur Ruler in the 14th century. The museum is closed. I am in hurry to reach Sukkur before sunset. The famous Mughal Emperor Akbar was born in Umerkot when his father emperor Humayon was wandering after defeat by Sher Shah Suri in 1541 that Time, Rana Parshad had given refuge to Emperor Humayon. Later it fort remained under the Kalhora dynasty, Raja Jodhpur, Talpur Dynasty, and British. Another significant story relating to Umarkot is Umar Marvi. Marvi was a young Thari girl abducted by then-ruler, Umar, who wanted to marry her because of her beauty. She refused to marry the king and finally returned to her home untouched. she was imprisoned in this historic Umerkot Fort for several years. Because of her courage, Marvi is regarded as a symbol of love for one’s soil and homeland.
