Sakrand (Urdu: سکرنڈ, Sindhi: سڪرنڊ) is a town in the Sindh province of Pakistan. Sakrand is a taluka of the district Shaheed Benazirabad (erstwhile Nawabshah), about 18 kilometers from the old Nawabshah city. By road it is a three-and-a-half-hour drive from Karachi on National Highway and one-and-a-half-hour drive from Hyderabad on National Highway. It is rich in Agriculture. It is a business town, exporting goods to Hyderabad, Sindh, and Nawabshah.
The historical town of Saklund is populated on both sides of National Highway, which was called Rawr (راوڙ وارو رستو), in old times. Whereas in the periods of the Talpur dynasty and British rule, it was called Tapali Rasto (ٽپالي رستو). In the initial time of British rule it was called Naar waro rasto. Sindhu darya flows about 18 km on the western side of Sakrand. There are various such signs from where it's clearly recognized that this old town is populated at the present location.
Sakrand was established a tehsil of Hyderabad district on 1858 by the British Government. On 1 Nov 1912, it was included in newly established Nawabshah district (now Shaheed Benazirabad). Sakrand was previously a sub-division headquarter of Nawabshah.
An important historical town due to the ruling periods of Kalhora rule and Talpur rule, Major General Haig mentions Sakrand in his book (The Indus Delta Country),[2] [3] whereas Albert William Hughes in his book, Sindh Gazetteer, has also mentioned the historical importance of Sakrand [4] [5]
Sakrand is home to Sakrand Junction railway station, that is abandoned by the Pakistan railway.[6]
Sakrand Sugar Mill Ltd. has a crushing capacity of 6,500 metric tons of sugarcane per day. The sugar mill not only fulfills domestic demand but it also has the capacity to export to other towns of the province.[7]
