This is a biography of Bacha Khan written by Professor Waqar Ali Shah, Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan (6 February 1890 – 20 January 1988) nicknamed as Bacha Khan ("king of chiefs") was a Pashtun independence activist against the rule of the British Raj. He was a political and spiritual leader known for his nonviolent opposition, and a lifelong pacifist and devout Muslim. A close friend of Mahatma Gandhi, Bacha Khan was nicknamed the "Frontier Gandhi" in British India. Bacha Khan founded the Khudai Khidmatgar ("Servants of God") movement in 1929, whose success triggered a harsh crackdown by the British Empire against him and his supporters, and they suffered some of the most severe repression of the Indian independence movement.
