Ramna Fayyaz hosts an aftaar for FMS committee members.

Ramna Fayyaz.

There is a little number of women, in the world, who have the capability and also the opportunity to pursue their dreams, Ramna Fayyaz is one of them.

A beautiful, accomplished, literary lady, blessed with a great intellect, Ramna is one of the most admired and well loved lecturers of department of English, Bahauddin Zakria University, Multan.

Ramna has established a great reputation, not only as a teacher and a scholar but also as a great organizer. She served as backbone to hold a splendid, official re-union for the members of O'Dell, the old students organization of her department, this year.

Being an illumni of the same department, her presence as co-ordinator/ treasurer in O'Dell and as a permanent faculty member at university, proved a connecting point for the official and unofficial ends to meet. And helped pave way to legitimize and formalize this organization. Not to forget, she was among those pioneers, who took the initiative of arranging an informal re-union last year, desperately desired by the old students.

And it is a great honour and privilege of the members of FMS committee that she is in this group as their member. Although, due to her commitments at the department and being the mother of two little children, she was not as active on the scene of partying, as at other fronts.
She tried her best to make it up for that, through the superb party she hosted for the members of FMS committee, in July.

As we all know, July was accompanied with the holy month of Ramadan. Ramna, availed this opportunity to arrange an exclusive 'aftaar' for the ladies. The venue was as fabulous as the menu. She selected Shahjahan grill to entertain her friends, on 24th of July.

Although, she was satisfied by the variety of dishes for 'aftaar' offered at buffet but she was not in a mood to present their ordinary/ regular menu for dinner. She ordered very special dishes like 'Madrasi haandi', 'Reshmi kebabs', etc. Those who turned up the event, truly admired her hospitality and selection of cuisine.

First aftaar, followed by dinner, then tea and dessert. Things kept arriving and made ladies remain seated and carry on long chats. It indeed turned out to be a great evening. Which provided a relief, from the stress, ladies suffered due to hectic schedules of Ramadan.

Thanks a lot Ramna, for all your efforts and we look forward to more of your participation in this fabulous group of ladies.

M.G.M. Swimming pool.

Summer is finally here, although, the weather still turns unpredictable at times. But still, one feels like taking a dip in the cool, cool water of a crystal clear pool. M.G.M (Multan Garrison Mess. Commonly known among Multanis, by its' old name 'services club'), opens up, pool doors for all its' members every 15th of April. The pool is open air, so it works on seasonal basis. From April to September/ October (if weather allows it).

MGM pool has always been, undoubtedly the biggest & the best in this city, with an excellent filtration plant to boast & an extremely dedicated team of military men as workers, for maintaining th...
