Seetpur is a city and union council in Tehsil Alipur of Muzaffargarh District in south Punjab, Pakistanalso known as paharpur on the name of Akhtar hayat pahari. In this city, there is a famous Tomb of Tahir Khan Nahar.[2] Its architecture resembles that of the Multan Tombs, but it is smaller in size compared to them. The Government High School of Seetpur was established by the British during the British Raj. Agriculture is the mainstay of the area's economy.
There is also a mosque named Shahi masjid seetpur that was built in the 1880s and renewed in the 1900s.
Sītpūr was listed in the Ain-i-Akbari as a pargana in sarkar Multan, counted as part of the Bīrūn-i Panjnad ("Beyond the Five Rivers").[3] It was assessed at 4,608,000 dams in revenue and supplied a force of 20 cavalry and 100 infantry.[3] Sitpur was strongly associated with the Nahars in Mughal times — the Dasturul 'Amal-i Shahjahani referred to Sitpur as "territory of the Nāhars", and the Mazhar-i Shahjahani referred to it as "Sītpūr Nāharān".[4]
