KARACHI, March 30: The City Nazim, Niamatullah Khan, on Wednesday inaugurated the auditorium of the Allama Iqbal Government Girls College at Shah Faisal Colony.
Speaking on the occasion, he said that education and training of both male and female students should be carried out on proper lines to make them useful citizens.
He said: “People say that students are the future of Pakistan, but I say that student themselves are Pakistan.” Mr Niamat said he too had remained an ordinary worker of the Pakistan movement. Sadly, he said, the dreams of Muslims could not be realized despite a passage of 57 years.
College Principal Noshaba Siddiqui told the audience that the college was named after the great poet, Allama Iqbal, and every student of the college knew at least five verses from Allama Iqbal’s poetry by heart.
