SUDHAN EDUCATION CONFERENCE

A blog for the above name had been created for the people who care about this organisation. It is quite useful and will help you to understand the role of this organisation which was created back in 1935 to educate the Sudhan Tribe in specific and Kashmiris in general. I hope it has served some of its goal, if we look around us and the number of people learned at that time and now. A link to SEC is as fol:-

QUOTES

 Lt. Col. J.M. Wikeley                                        ( Book: Punjabi Musalmans)

"Male population.— 25,300. (Census 1838). The Sudhanoti tehsil of Poonch is the home of the Sudhans, but they spread also into the Havali, Bagh and Kotli tehsils and a few even are to be met with across the Jhelum in the Kahuta tehsil of Rawalpindi………The Sudhans are the most important tribe of Poonch."

"The Sudhans have pride of race and look on themselves as superior to any of the other tribes of Poonch Kashmir".

 

Major G. Carmichael Smyth                             (Book: A History of the Reigning Family of Lahore)

"About the year 1832, several independent hill-tribes inhabiting the north western regions of the Punjaub  were reduced into subjection to the Lahore state. These were the Doondh, Soodhun (Sudhun), Suthee, and Murdiall tribes… The Soodhun tribe inhabited a large tract on the eastern bank of the same river opposite the country of the Doondhs, and numbered about forty thousand souls.
