The Founder Prince Burhanuddin
Founded in 1962 by Prince Burhan Uddin a former WWII fighter pilot and son of His Highness Sir Shuja Ul Mulk the former mehtar (ruler of Chitral), Pamir Trotters is a family-owned business. Burhan joined the legendary Indian resistance leader Subash Chandra Bose by revolting against the British and siding with the Japanese on the Burma front in 1945. He was revered by the Japanese as Samurai and after the war ended following Japan's defeat, Burhan faced a death sentence on treason charges in Delhi (British India). He was represented by Jawhar Lal Nehru his lawyer who managed to get his sentence overturned and got him off the hook arguing that British law did not apply for subjects of Chitral State. As they parted ways, Nehru went on to become India's prime minister and Burhan got elected to the Senate of Pakistan in the 1980s.
Known for his hospitality, Burhan started Pamir Trotters (named after the famous Pamirs Mountain ranges) that separate Chitral from neighboring Afghanistan, Tajikistan and China. The location of the Pamir region also known as roof of the world is unique since within close proximity five mountain ranges meet namely Pamirs, Hindu Kush, Karakoram, Himalayas and Tien Shan.
Burhan was very passionate about Chitral and using his vast contacts started promoting Chitral to the outside world. Pamir Trotters teamed up with Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and till present day the company successfully undertakes ground handling services for the PIA at Chitral Airport for more than six decades.
Shahzada Sikander ul Mulk – Chitral’s Polo Superstar
Following Burhan’s death in 1996, Pamir Trotters has been run by Shahzada Sikander ul Mulk known as the King of Polo in Chitral as he has been instrumental in winning trophies for Chitral over three decades. He has successfully led the Chitral polo A and B teams as captain and won on at least on 26 occasions against the Gilgit Baltistan team.
He continues to lead the Chitral polo team keeping hopes of polo aficionados alive thereby ensuring that each summer crowds throng polo grounds jam packed to get a glimpse of polo (the king of games).
