There are many historical places in bahawalpur and central library is one of them. The building of this historical places was initially start by Nawab Sr Sadiq Muhammad Khan Abasi. For the construction of this building the people of this princely state aided less or more than one lac rupees. The government employers provide money in installment on monthly basis. In the previous years this area of Pakistan was facing the problems of funds and the construction of this building was started in 1972 and was not completed in seven years due to lack of funds.

Later on the custody of the building was handed over to the municipality department of bahawalpur. This department completed the construction with in few years. Now a days there are a lot of book on all topics of the world are in this library. Many people go to the library daily to read newspaper. they read news paper to know what is happening in the world. Some people read book to increase their knowledge. There is a large ground in library. Students often go to the library to read in silence. They feel very comfortable and they do not pay any interest in the surrounding they only take interest in books. Now Government should take interest to improve the library.
