Ladies club, Multan

Mahnaz Amir and Mrs. Farrukh Mukhtar Ladies club Multan, a slice of women's social life in the city of saints. An embodiment of societal interaction among the young and the old. An epitome of living legends, who have journeyed through time and inspired generations. A platform to learn, teach, express, preach and to be cordial. From decade to decade, year to year, month to month, this club has worked as a scaffold for ladies of Multan, to shine among their kind by sharing their talents and capabilities. The tradition still goes on, after more than half a century. As we all know the month of December is favourite time for  Multani-ites  to party.

As it is the month of Hazrat Muhammad, the last prophet of Islam, Muslims arrange festivities to remember and cherish his teachings. Such events are called Milaads. Members of Ladies club Multan...

So, the theme was the same and was extensively used in decorations from every aspect. On the cool Sunday morning of 6th December, their house was renamed as 'Maqbool's polo club'. Hay stacks were laid everywhere, were even used as coffee tables. Pennants, Red flags,  Banners...
