It is the last town committee of Punjab province before the Sindh border. In this beautiful town, there is a ruin on the north side. This is the Ahmedpur Lamma Fort. In terms of defense, this fort was the largest fort in the state of Bahawalpur after Derawar fort. Ahmedpur Lamma Fort is now destroyed. It is a tragic story of destruction. This area, the guardian of the lost civilizations of the extinct Hakra River, has been important from a defensive point of view since ancient times. According to authentic historical information of this area, it was ruled by the famous Rai dynasty until 493 CE, whose capital was Alwar or Arwar. It consisted of the present-day areas of Rohri. The ruins of forts and residences are found on the rugged rocks here. During the reign of Raja Saharsan, a Buddhist, it was an important defensive position under Alwar in the five provinces under his administration. If we look at the history of Ahmedpur Lamma, according to traditions, about 2200 years ago, a spiritual leader of Buddhism, called Lama, settled here. The real name of this Lama is not known. He came here from central India and started living in this place on the banks of the Indus River. His followers called this settlement Lama's residence. What was the name of this place before that? History is shrouded in darkness. There is evidence of the same name being used during the reign of Raja Dahir over Alor or Aror, but later it was named Lati Vahan due to the local rebellious tribe Lata. Here, there is a vast forest of trees and reeds on the banks of the Indus River. Then after many centuries, a local king named it Dara Kodhan Mal after his son Kodhan Mal. Its southern area touches the borders of Rohi. According to traditions, in 712 AD, Muhammad bin Qasim, on his way to conquer Multan, stayed for a night in the ancient fort of Lama before attacking the religious place called Hail Bhatia. This is the same Bhatia as the present Bhatta Vahan. Ahmedpur Lamma is 15 kilometers from Bhatia. Raja Adam Jam also ruled over this Bhatia, whose reign lasted from the early days of the Abbasid Empire in Bahawalpur until just a few years ago. Under his administration was the present area of ​​Sindh up to Daharki and the subjects here were tributaries of Adam Jam. Ahmedpur Lamma had special importance due to being a commercial center. Bhatia, the seat of Adam Jam, is the birthplace of the famous romantic character Sassi, and Bhatia or Bhatta Vahan is world famous because of the birthplace of Sassi. After spending the night, Muhammad bin Qasim attacked Bhatia and Multan from here. During the Abbasid dynasty's rule over Bahawalpur, it was named Ahmadpur Lamma after Sardar Ahmad Khan Abbasi. Some people call it Lamma Maghrib in Saraiki, while in fact it is a corrupted form of Lama, which was remembered even until the time of Sardar Ahmad Khan Abbasi and was added to Ahmadpur as Lamma. During the reign of Nawab Bahawal Khan Abbasi III, the old and dilapidated fort was rebuilt. The walls of the fort were demolished and new walls were built. Cannons were also placed along with the existing catapults and a military regiment was also established. In 1775, Sardar Ahmad Khan had a thirty-foot high wall built around the city with mud. He also dug a canal which he named after himself, which is still known as Ahmadwah. The foundations of the fort were made of mud, while some of it was built of concrete. Its mud walls were so wide that two horsemen could run on it at the same time. The city had eight gates protected by iron gates. There was also a gunpowder store. There was also a light tower on the Indus River, which guided river travelers to their destinations. The elders of the Bahawalpur state and the high officials of the British government also lived here. The reinforced part of the fort was given the status of a rest house. The three-story rest house was a masterpiece of architecture, which can still be seen from the outer walls. Being a border city of Sindh, its defensive importance was very high. The British government allegedly also built a gallows here. It is said that opponents of the British government from India were brought here and secretly put to death. A police station was established here in 1868, which was shifted to the eastern part of the city a few years ago.
