KARACHI: Disneyland Park planned

KARACHI, Dec 29: City Nazim Naimatullah Khan said on Sunday that the modern Disneyland park, being built on latest designs, will be a gift of the new year for the citizens of Karachi.

With a view to carry out the plan for setting up a modern Disneyland park in Bagh-i-Ibne Qasim, Clifton, he constituted a committee headed by Shah Mehmood Hussain Syed of the enterprise and investment promotion department.

The committee will submit its technical, financial and administrative recommendations which would be required to complete the project.

Various countries, including the US, UK, China and Qatar, have expressed their desires to invest in the project.

RELIGIOUS SCHOOLS: The City Nazim has termed religious schools a strong fort of Islam, and that anti-Islam forces have hatched a conspiracy against them.

Speaking at the annual ceremony of Al-Khidmat Madressah Tafheemul Quran on Sunday, he hoped that as long as students and teachers of religious schools continued discharging their roles, no power on earth could cast aspersion over the image of the country.

“Under the prevailing scenario, heavy responsibility rests on them to bring Islamic revolution in Pakistan by transforming the country into an ideological state,” he maintained.

Syed Asif Ali of the Madressah said that thousands of students of the religious schools have been serving in the country for the cause of Islam.—PPI
