Akbarpura, or Akbarpūra is a village, which is located roughly 13 miles (21 km) northeast of Peshawar and is part of Pabbi Tehsil of Nowshera District of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan.

Abdul Wahab alias Akhund Panju Baba was a famous Sufi and preacher of Islam.

He left two sons Syed Muzaffar Ali Shah Bukhari (Divisional Superintendent Railways Lahore Division.)

[citation needed] His Elder son Syed Muzaffar Ali Shah Bukhari's shrine is in Garhi Momin a nearby Village.

[citation needed] Built about 400 years ago, Pokh Jumaat (stone mosque) of Akbarpura has sunk more than four feet since its establishment.

The mosque is subsiding at a rate equivalent to the size of a wheat grain (3 mm) per year according to one local resident.

[citation needed] Giving the scientific explanation, Dr Mohammad Iqbal, deputy chief geologist Pakistan Petroleum Limited, says that the mosque is slowly sinking due to the depletion of the water level beneath it.

Giant aquifers that serve as water reservoirs are being emptied faster than they can be refilled, causing the earth to sink, he says, adding it seems that it is built on layers of clay and highly permeable sand and gravel that easily compress when fluid is withdrawn.

[citation needed] Most of the children receive basic and secondary education in their village and majority joins colleges in Peshawar, Nowshera and Pabbi.

The main road of the village is totally destroyed by moving of Heavy Machinery and raw material for the construction of Peshawar-Islamabad motorway.

The motorway has been completed in 2007, but the main road of Akbarpura is still in ruins and presents a view of small lakes during the rainy season.

Sewerage system is totally insufficient for the growing population and construction of residential houses/colonies housing without planning.

[citation needed] All residents are provided with electricity as well as land line telephone service - which is available with all the cellular companies operating in Pakistan.

[citation needed] The main cultural event of Akbarpura is a four day festival on the occasion of Eid Ul Fitar.

Akbarpura is known for its fertile land and fruit orchards, Plum, Peach, Pear and loquat are the famous and common.

The need of a Cricket stadium and volleyball court has been felt from quite a long period,[original research?]

A flood control wall has been constructed to stop the water from entering the populated area of the village.
