Captain Karnal Sher Khan is an epitome of courage, heroism and gallantry. The valor exhibited by the proud son of soil received wide appreciation from the adversary, who was forced to lift over hundred dead bodies of their soldiers, and the credit goes to a small team of few brave hearts led by young captain of Pakistan Army. The story of selfless devotion to duty, proactive and unparalleled velour amid all odds and hazards, makes him larger than life; hence, he provides a beacon of hope and aspiration to the budding youth. Therefore, the College has been established to pay homage to the proud recipient of Nishan-e-Haider and provide nation with Sherians for the future.
Karnal Sher Khan was born in Faujoonabad near Nawan Kalli, Swabi, on January 1, 1970. His grandfather Ghalib Khan, a Kashmiri freedom fighter, named him 'Karnal Sher': a military name with the amalgam of lion-like-bravery. In 1992, he joined Pakistan Military Academy Kakul and was commissioned in 27 Sindh Regiment in 1994.
During Kargil Conflict, he was posted to 12 Northern Light Infantry Battalion along the Line of Control in Gultari Sector. His company was responsible for Tiger Hills, which towered majestically above all other mountaintops in its vicinity, and dominated the Srinagar-Kargil-Leh highway. In an attempt to retake the locality, the enemy commenced operations on 6 June 1999, but entire month of June wasted in futile attempts, with multiple causalities. Ultimately, the Indians decided for another attempt on 3rd July after intense air bombing by IAF. The fresh attack was launched by 192 Mountain Brigade, comprising two battalions, with cracks team from High-Altitude Warfare School, supported by fire of nearly 120 field and medium guns, 122-mm multibarrelled rocket launchers and mortars. Sher Khan, however, managed to beat back multi-pronged repeated assaults. On 5th July 1999, enemy tried to mount another assault but failed. On night of 7-8 July, 1999, Karnal Sher Khan blocked enemy penetration of almost a Battalion and wreaked fatal blows on infiltrating parties of enemy with very high casualties. In the meantime, the enemy's light machine gun opened up fire, and he received multiple injuries. Not with standing his wounds, he kept on firing on the enemy and severely disrupted their attack. But he could not received the bullet wounds on chest and forehead, and embraced "Shahadat". The Indian Army impressed from his audacity and fearlessness sent "a note of praise" with the body of Karnal Sher Khan suggesting the highest military award for him.
In recognition of his ultimate sacrifices and unparalleled courage, Government of Pakistan decided to established a Cadet College and provide opportunity for the youth be benefit and follow the footprint of Sher Khan.
