Ghnai Khan Dheri
The library and museum at Ghani Dheri in Charsadda remain at the mercy of harsh weather, dilapidated infrastructure and the absence of facilities. The institution was constructed between 2000 and 2002 by the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government to recognise the literary contributions of Pashto poet Khan Abdul Ghani Khan, better known as Ghani Khan. It is situated in the poet’s ancestral village of Utmanzai.
The site lies in ruins after years of neglect. The museum needs artefacts and to manage them—a curator, while the empty corridors of the library still await a librarian.
Officials have also asked authorities to ensure artefacts found from historical sites in Charsadda Peshawar are displayed at the museum. However, little has been done to fulfil these requests so far.
