THAAP in a short span of time has greatly contributed to the promotion of history, art & architecture in Pakistan. Life in Small Town will be another noble venture that will promote knowledge and awareness.
I seek the valuable input of the informed readers for my presentation "Road to Kasur".
Lets wait for a grand event.
