The city itself is subdivided into 8 Union Councils. Sitting close to the provincial boundaries of Sindh and Balochistan, Jacobabad became a city on the site of an existing village (Khangarh), and is crossed by the Pakistan Railway and many main roads of the province. EtymologyThe translation of Jacobabad from Urdu to English is known as the City of Jacob, after John Jacob, an East India Company officer (1812–1858) and engineer, from the original Khangarh Village of Khan. HistoryDuring British rule, as part of British Raj, the town was the administrative headquarters of the Upper Sind Frontier District of the Bombay Presidency; with a station on the Quetta branch of the North-Western Railway. After the British Raj the city was reigned with a Sardar, Taj Dero Khan Odho. The city also became well known for consistently having the highest temperature in South Asia, and has a mean summer average of 98 °F (37 °C).[2] In November 2010, former Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani announced that University of Information Technology would be established in Jacobabad.[3] Twenty-two Shiites were killed in by a suicide bomber in October 2015.[4] Religion
