Lieutenant-Colonel Hassan Suhrawardy CStJ, FRCS (17 November 1884 – 18 September 1946)[2] was a Bengali surgeon, military officer in the British Indian Army, politician, and a public official.

Hassan's daughter Shaista was married to Mohammed Ikramullah, a Pakistani diplomat and brother of Chief Justice Mohammad Hidayatullah, sometime vice-president of India.

Khujastha was married to her cousin Justice Sir Zahid Suhrawardy, an early Indian judge of the Calcutta High Court.

While Suhrawardy was vice-chancellor and dean of the Faculty of Medicine, he received his knighthood immediately after he had saved the life of Sir Stanley Jackson from an assassination attempt by Bina Das, a student, in the Senate House of the University of Calcutta in February 1932.

His distinguished career in medicine and in the public service was crowned in 1939 by his appointment to succeed Sir Abdul Qadir as the adviser to the Secretary of State for India.
