Building of Tomb
Initially the building of Sahib's tomb was made of mud. Before 1970 Sadat of Kirani had a brick and concrete boundary wall built and a main gate installed. After that in 1973,the than prime minister Mr Zulfikar Ali Bhutto (Shaheed) provided the money for the tomb's renovation. Further improvements were also made in 2006.
Present Day Construction: In 2008, due to alarming increase in population in the immediate vicinity of the tomb, there was the danger of desecration of the tomb and the adjoining 600-year-old graveyard of the Sadat of Kirani, therefore the Government of Balochistan built a fortified boundary wall around the tomb as well as the graveyard.Chief Minister of Balochistan Mr Nawab Aslam Raisani signed a grant of Rs, fifty lakh for this project. The Chief Minister of Balochistan Nawab Mohammed Aslam Raisani's father Mr. Nawab Ghous Bakhsh Rayesani (late) was also a close ally of the Sadat of Kirani. Another person who played an important role in the construction of this boundary wall was Mr. Mir Haji Ali Mudad Jatak (Minister for food Balochistan). This project was possible because of his relentless efforts.

Famous quotes containing the words building of, building and/or tomb:
“There is something about the literary life that repels me, all this desperate building of castles on cobwebs, the long-drawn acrimonious struggle to make something important which we all know will be gone forever in a few years, the miasma of failure which is to me almost as offensive as the cheap gaudiness of popular success.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“Our civilization is characterized by the word “progress.” Progress is its form rather than making progress being one of its features. Typically it constructs. It is occupied with building an ever more complicated structure. And even clarity is sought only as a means to this end, not as an end in itself. For me on the contrary clarity, perspicuity are valuable in themselves.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
“And so all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride
In her sepulchre there by the sea—
In her tomb by the side of the sea.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
