| The delegation was led by Chairman Lower Bari Dowab Canal Area Water Board Sirdar Tipu Usman. |
| The sirdar had but to ask, to receive all the material and men he wished for. |
| There was the sirdar, or chief porter, our cook and his assistant, and then the troop of basic carriers and luggers. |
| A Sirdar was a rank assigned to the British commander in chief of the Egyptian Army during the 19th century when the British controlled Egypt. |
| On my way in I met the sirdar, out, as usual, on an inspecting tour. |
| The shop stocks Sirdar yarns plus wool, patterns, books, knitting needles, sewing needles, thread, buttons and small haberdashery items. |
