Grave of the last sovereign ruler of Karna; Raja Sher Ahmed khan. Bomba chieftain Sher Ahmed launched resistance movement against 1846 Treaty of Amritsar which lasted upto 1852

He fought sikhs as well as Dogras.

When Gulab Singh crushed Sher Khan's forces, the latter reconciled with the Maharaja, who in 1852 conferred Doesar in South Kashmir as Jagir upon Sher Khan.

Sher Khan died soon afterwards. His last wish was to be buried in Gabra, his capital of Karnah, Maharaja did not allow it

He lies buried in the shrine of Hazrat Gaibi Shah at Yaripora, Kulgam. The raised portion on the side of the resting place of Hazrat Shah Sahab is the grave of Raja Sher Ahmad Khan, the Bomba chieftain.
