Mian Sultan was a famous contractor during the British Rule. Have you ever heard of him or his haveli inside the Walled City of Lahore? Well, before I jump on to his Haveli, which is no doubt a mesmerising piece of art, let me tell you who this contractor was. Mian Muhammad Sultan, at the young age of 12, came to Lahore from Kashmir as his maternal family was residing in Lahore at the time. He was not an affluent neither belonged to such a family. As per historic accounts, he was a lower middle class person and to make both ends meet he did all sorts of tedious jobs. Historic references also state that he was the first to start manufacturing soap in Lahore, that’s an interesting fact! Well some historians write that he also practiced wrestling for a living and during that Maharajah Sher Singh had rewarded him and presented him a horse, at that time it was big prize for Sultan, who never knew where his fate would take him. As the time passed Sultan managed to make contacts with the influential of the city and became a small contractor for them. This was a turning point for Sultan and in the British era he became an eminent contractor. Very soon he was recognised as the Sultan of Lahore and was one of the revered persons in the city of Lahore.
