Nawab Najaf Ali Khan urges State to commemorate Nizam VII’s birth anniversary

Nawab Najaf Ali Khan, the grandson of the Nizam VII, Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur, demanded the State government officially commemorate the birth anniversary of Nizam VII, that falls on April 6, in recognition of his service and legacy.

In a representation submitted to the Chief Minister, A Revanth Reddy, on Monday, April 6, the 140th birth anniversary of Mir Osman Ali Khan, his grandson, Nawab Najaf, said that Mir Osman Ali Khan Bahadur is remembered for his secular outlook and immense contributions to the State and the



nation. 

His legacy continues to live on through the many institutions and reforms he established, yet his birth anniversary remains officially unrecognised.

“This absence raises concerns that future generations may gradually lose awareness of his remarkable contributions. 

While some political entities invoke his name for their own purposes, the lack of formal recognition on his birth anniversary reflects a certain disregard for a leader of such stature,” said Najaf Ali Khan.
