Hamida Khuhro (August 13, 1936 – February 12, 2017)[1] was a Pakistani politician and historian who twice served as Sindh's Minister for Education and also served as a professor of history at the University of Sindh.[2][3]
Early life and education
Hamida Khuhro was born on 13 August 1936 at Larkana, Sindh, British India.[1] Khuhro was the daughter of Muhammad Ayub Khuhro, a former chief minister of Sindh.[1] She had a PhD in South Asian History from the University of London[4] and also attended the Universities of Karachi, Cambridge and Oxford.[1]
Career
As an academic historian, Khuhro taught at Karachi and Oxford universities before becoming a professor at Sindh University.
In 1971, when military action was launched in East Pakistan, she was a student at Oxford University. She was one of the few Pakistanis who openly condemned it, saying: "I am ashamed to be a Pakistani." A section of the press in West Pakistan denounced her for condemning the military action. She left Sindh University to concentrate on politics and writing. She joined the 'Sindh National Alliance' in 1987 and in 1993 became a member of the Pakistan Muslim League. She had also served as Sindh's minister for education and literacy in 1990.[4]
In 2002, she was again appointed as minister for education during Pervez Musharraf's regime.[1]
Personal life
She was a Muslim and was married.[5]

Khuhro died in Karachi after a brief illness on 12 February 2017, aged 80.[6][2]
