On 23 April 1930 an armoured car and then troops fired on an unarmed crowd in Peshawar's Qissa Khwani Bazaar after Congress and Khudai Khidmatgar leaders were arrested. Counts of the dead run from 20 to over 400.

The Awami National Party, founded in 1986, grew from Bacha Khan's Khudai Khidmatgar through the banned National Awami Party. It governed the Frontier from 2008 to 2013, renamed it Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in 2010, and lost many leaders to Taliban bombs.

On 12 August 1948 police of the Frontier's Muslim League government fired on a Khudai Khidmatgar gathering at Babra in Charsadda. The government gave 15 dead; Khudai Khidmatgar sources and the press gave hundreds.
