The PML-F is headed by Pir Pagaro Pir Sibghatullah Shah Rashidi, also known as Raja Saein. Pir Pagaro is a spiritual post awarded to leader of the Hur Jamaat. Hurs are a warlike Sufi Muslim community in Sindh celebrated in Pakistan for the long-running guerrilla campaign it fought against the British Raj. The Pir Pagaro is appointed by the council of 16 Hur caliphs. Of these, 15 are in Pakistan, while the 16th resides in India. The caliphs are responsible for managing the affairs of the community. These caliphs are believed to have a central influence on the PML-F decision making.
