Tharo Khan Talpur

Mir Tharo Khan, Sitara-i-Jang, was the founder of Mankani Talpurs state in southeastern Sindh. Talpurs defeated Kalhora rulers and founded their rule over Sindh. Mir Tharo Khan Talpur participated in the Battle of Halani against Kalhoras. However, when Mir Fateh Ali Talpur started rule from Hyderabad (Sindh), Mir Tharo Khan Talpur went to southeastern Sindh and founded a state under his own crown, which was called the state of Mir Pur Khas in 1784, located at Keti Mir Tharo.
