Framed Print of Sketches in Chitral: Gateway of Mundia Khan, 1895. Creator: George Meisenbach
Sketches in Chitral: Gateway of Mundia Khan, 1895. Some tribesmen from the Panjkora Valley fired several shots at the pickets at Mundia Khan, and also attacked Jamrud fort on May 24...The British post at Mundia Khan [Khar] is a point very frequently assailed by tribesmen, and the sentries have to keep a sharp look-out for stragglers, who fire upon them...Already the future of Chitral is being discussed. It is hardly likely that it will either be handed over to the Ameer or abandoned. One thing seems clear, and that is that the place would have to be held by the Dir route. The expense, however, of maintaining an extra brigade, whose post would be there, would be considerable. For the tribes in the country all around might prove, by combination, a serious force to contend against. The Russian boundary, according to the Pamir agreement, is now within twelve miles of Chitral. All these facts point to one conclusion. Although in the present low state of Indian [ie British Raj] finances it seems rash to add a fresh and heavy burden, yet the policy which has been commenced is so important that it might prove still more expensive in the future if it were abbreviated'.
