How a Pakistani Woman took her children from nothing to NUST

[Jango]

Living in the bleak rural outskirts of Multan, Razia Mushtaq had a childhood full of hardship. She was from an underprivileged family. There was no silver spoon. Her father was a shoe mender. Such was the bitter reality she had to face, day after day. Their house was a mud-and-brick structure, covered by a flimsy tin roof, incurred at considerable expense.

The hardships faced by many people in Pakistan, my salute to this woman for giving her children education as an utmost importance.

A veru nice tale of determination.

That is what we need, the outreach program that LUMS had initiated. Who knows how many more gems can be unearthed. The spoiled rich brats of Beaconhouse and other money minting institutions are not always on a higher level.

NUST is an excellent institution, and so is GIKI.
I know some other people who got their education free of cost, on interest free loans and some got payments on deferred payments.

Benchmark for many like her... Always a pleasure seeing people going from zero to hero.
