Bakhsh Khan Baloch:
Renaissance
man of Sindh
Dr. Baloch is a
man with the curiosity of an explorer and the
application of a scholar. He is a natural born
researcher who has devoted his life to
uncovering every stone as it were, of Sindh and
revealing the life underneath to our gaze. A man
of great mental capacity, an indefatigable
worker and devoted to the cause of learning and
knowledge. Dr. Baloch has helped Sindh make
monumental leaps in its knowledge about itself.
There is no corner of Sindh's folk literature,
culture, history, geography and anthropology
that is not researched by him. It would not be
an exaggeration to call him an encyclopedia of
Sindh.
Dr. Baloch has
been generous in sharing his knowledge and it is
to be found in the dozens of books that he has
written on these subjects. His tally of books is
very impressive for the number published and for
the variety of subjects covered. They are of
such excellence and cover such a wide field that
the most exoteric interests in Sindh are to be
found in his work. He himself is proudest of his
ten volume definitive edition of the poetry of
Shah Abdul Latif, the national poet of Sindh.
But in my view perhaps his most valuable work is
on the five-volume dictionary of Sindhi that
must be regarded as a seminal work on the Sindhi
Language. It is a comprehensive work of great
erudition and places Sindhi as a developed
modern language of the subcontinent. The fact
that Dr. Baloch has done the work himself with
the help only of every small team of assistants
is proof, if proof were needed of his immense
knowledge of the language and his dedication to
it. He has thus laid the basis of the language
as an instrument of modern learning. The plain
facts of the career of Dr. Baloch speak for
themselves.
Born in a small
village in the district of Saghar his brilliance
as a student became apart early. He studied at
the Madressah and High School of
Sindh. He obtained First class
and the second position amongst the Muslim
candidates of Sindh in the Matriculation
examination. He graduated with Honours from
Bahauddin College in Junagadh getting Ist Class
and 3rd position in Bombay University
which maintained the highest academic standards
in India. He then did his M.A from Aligarh
University getting the first position in the
University. He was given a scholarship by the
British Government of India and got his Masters
and Doctorate in education from Columbia
University in New York.
Dr. Baloch's
working career has been equally distinguished.
He was selected for the superior services of
Pakistan but gave up, what surely would have
been a great career in the Government Service of
Pakistan, for his first love- the academic
world. Here his career has been a roll call of
honor and distinction. As professor of Education
he founded the first Department of Education in
Pakistan that later he developed into an
Institute of
Education and Research. He is the pioneer in the field of higher professional
education of teachers in
Pakistan.
-He has been Vice
Chancellor of the University of
Sindh (1973-1976) He founded the
department of Pharmacy and the Centre for
Pakistan Studies in the University. He fully
supported the establishment of the Shah Abdul
Latif Campus of the Sindh University and at the main
campus (Allama I.I. Kazi campus) he strengthened
the University Library and the Institute of
Sindhology. He had the grant of the University increased and managed to get a
number of scholarships and grants for the
University.
From 1976 the
Federal Government at Islamabad acquired the
services of Dr. Baloch. He was O.S.D Secretary
Ministry of Education and Secretary Ministry of
Culture. He was Chairman National Institute of
Historical and Cultural Research where he
initiated a vigorous programme of research and
publications. As advisor to the National Hijra
Council set up to celebrate the 15th
century of the Islamic era, Dr. Baloch devised
on ambitions programme of historic publications.
These were the hundred great books of Islamic
world. Chosen with great care, these hundred
books were to be translated and edited and
published in English.
Dr. Baloch was
the first Vice Chancellor of the Islamic
University at Islamabad and set it up as a fully
working University within a very short time. On
his return to Sindh Dr. Baloch became the
founding Chairman of the Sindhi Language
Authority. In this capacity he continued his
services to the Sindhi Language. In addition to
the work on Sindhi, Dr. Baloch has written
numerous books in Urdu, Arabic, Persian and
English.
In his retirement
Dr. Baloch continues to work hard at writing and
researching. His travels take him to every
corner of the province where he finds not only
congenial company of sughars, story tellers and
musicians but also discovers interesting
historic clues through which he identifies
water wells constructed in specials manner
which date them back three thousand years at a
conservative estimate. His immense contribution
to the fund of knowledge about Sindh is a
monument to his genius. His 44 volumes of folk
literature, more than 15 volumes on Shah Abdul
Latif, his work on classical historical texts of
Sindh, on Muslim scholars like Al Beruni, Allama
I.I. Kazi, on different aspects of the culture
of Sindh including music and musical
instruments, on education, on the language
including the dictionaries, are such
accomplishments that it is difficult to imagine
them equaled let alone surpassed. May God grant
him health and a long life to continue the
valuable work that he has devoted his life to.

Achieving the
heights of knowledge
Dr. N.A. Baloch is one of
Pakistan's most distinguished scholars and
historians. He knows Persian and Arabic, is
fluent in English and Urdu and "picked up
Balochi and Punjabi" along the way.
He established
the pioneering Institute of
Education at Sindh University and became
the University's Vice-chancellor in 1973 and
later, Director of the Institute of
Historical and Cultural Research in
Islamabad. His remarkable academic career
however had an unlikely beginning: Dr. Baloch
was born in a small Sanghar village, where there
were no schools.
"My father died
when I was six months old and my uncle brought
me up." Dr. N.A. Baloch said, "There was no
canal system in those days. The river would
flood and the water would rise up for 10 weeks
sometimes. As children we often did not have
much to eat and we skipped meals. When I was
five my grandfather taught me the suras of the
Quran, which I memorized, my uncle told me "When
your father was dying, he said `Educate my son'.
You must learn. "My uncle took me to the local
baniya to teach me the baniya alphabet." He
later attended a school a mile away from his
village.
An Education
official, who used to travel around on a camel,
wearing sola topee saw Dr. Baloch's work and
said, "This child is brilliant. He should go to
a high school." The village teacher had no idea
what a high school was.
The distances
that Dr. Baloch and his uncle traveled on foot
in their quest for education were vast. The
middle school was 13 miles from their village.
The high school meant a train journey and a walk
of 14 miles from the station.
A quiet, soft
spoken man, with on old-world courtesy and
beautiful, quaint manners, Dr. Baloch topped in
the metric exams among Sindhi Muslims and found
his way to Junagadh, where Muslim boys paid no
fees, There he joined Bahauddin Collage which
had "a magnificent domed building with
laboratories, libraries and spacious grounds".
There were
excellent sports facilities, which Dr. Baloch
thoroughly enjoyed. He saw the All-India hockey
team play. He recalls Hanif Muhammad who was a
little boy in those days and played cricket. Dr.
Baloch attended many cultural activities too,
including brilliant mushairas which Jigar
Moradabadi frequented.
Dr. Baloch
graduated with flying colours and was awarded
Nawab Mahabat Khan Fellowship with a stipend of
Rs. 100/= but failed to get clearance from
Bombay as he had joined and organized the
Khaksar Tehrik. "We used to carry belches and we
marched up and down, a hundred strong." The
Principal said "Do what I tell you. Go to
Aligarh." "He gave me latter for the Vice
Chancellor".
"Aligarh opened
up a new world", he recalled. "I met men of
great learning. They were known internationally.
The tradition at Aligarh was that students
behaved immaculately in class. There was always
a pin-drop silence.
Otherwise,
Aligrah students were a terror. We traveled to
Delhi free and never bought a train ticket, but
no one dared question us. We fought it out.
There was also this custom that seniors were
honoured by juniors, although they could tease
juniors mercilessly on the first night which was
called Junior's Night.
"Aligarh was a
world of students. We had student autonomy. We
came from different parts of India, but sat and
ate together. The local students never made us
feel like outsiders. People from other provinces
were elected as presidents and office bearers.
"Aligash was a
Muslim university in the true sense. We found
equality between rich and poor. We learned
respect for our teachers and we learned student
power. I was still the leader of the Khaksar
Tahrik and I was the first to suggest that we
should give an official salute to the
Quaid-i-Azam".
Dr. Baloch who studied Persian and Arabic in
Junagadh, continued with Arabic at Aligarh and
topped in his Masters exam talking a law degree
simultaneously. He went on to do historical
research on Early Arab Islamic Rule in Sindh.
Since then he has written books and papers on
Islamic and South Asian history, including
Islamic science. He has also challenged the
British colonial interpretation of Indo-Muslim
history. |
