Bahadurabad (Urdu: بہادر آباد) is one of the neighbourhoods of Gulshan Town, Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. It is located in the Civic Centre zone in the Gulshan Town. It was originally inhabited by mainly middle-class Hyderabadi Muhajirs, who migrated from Hyderabad Deccan (now Hyderabad, Telangana, India) after the creation of Pakistan in 1947, and mainly after India's annexation of Hyderabad in 1948.
Bahadurabad neighbourhood in Karachi is named after the noted freedom fighter Bahadur Yar Jang (1905–1944), a Muslim nationalist and a prominent member of the Pakistan Movement from Hyderabad Deccan. In 2007, a replica of the famous Charminar monument of Old City of Hyderabad, was constructed on the main crossing of Bahadurabad.
