The month of Ramadan brings with it the blessings of Allah Subhana Wa Ta’ala and the whole month is celebrated like a sacred event throughout the world. In Pakistan this month is celebrated with religious fervor and devotion. The people of Pakistan are religiously devoted and have great passion of Islam in their hearts and the Holy month of Ramadan depicts their love and commitment to their religion as they celebrate it with lighting their mosques and embracing each other on the even of 1^st Ramadan.

They pay Salaams to all their friends, family and the people living in their neighborhoods and then go on to the mosque in order to offer the Taraveeh prayer that is offered only in the month of Ramadan. They sleep early in the night as they have to wake up for Sahar after midnight. Then the women in the house move to kitchen and start preparing the Sahar dishes. Parathas and fried eggs are prepared along with the delicious Pheoni which is a special dish of Ramadan, eaten completely soaked in milk.

Then the boys go on to offer the prayer and return home to recite the Holy Koran. People go on to work and the mosques get filled with devotees during the prayer timings. In the evening, Aftar is prepared in homes and streets of Lahore. Pakoras, Samosas, Fruit salad, sweets, Kachoris and loads of such dishes are prepared. As Lahorites are famous for their love for food, the streets of Lahore exhibit a scene of absolute mess because the rush of people on bakeries and dairies is immense. Then they reach home and wait for the Adhaan to begin, and the moment the loudspeakers of mosques recite the words “Allah-o-Akbar” they finally break the fast with a date following the Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.w).

Lakshmi Chowk of Lahore, that is famous for the foods and restaurants, is filled with men and traffic is almost blocked as there is hardly any space left for cars to move. The restaurants in Lahore offer special deals in this month with buffets being offered at the time of Sahar and Aftar and food lovers flock to restaurants to enjoy these deals. As the final Ashra of Ramadan nears the rush in the market starts to increase gradually as people start shopping for the Eid. They buy new clothes, shoes and perfumes while girls buy bangles, mehndi and all the jewelry that they have to wear on the day of Eid.

Then there is Shab-e-Qadr on 27^th Ramadan, the day when the Koran began to be bestowed upon the Prophet (s.a.w.w). Special prayers are offered in the mosques on the eve of 27^th Ramadan. and after this night, the rush in the markets mounts dramatically as Eid is almost there and this trend peaks on the night before Eid that is known as the Chaand Raat. Shopping plazas and Bazaars look colorful with their lights on and filled with men and women from all parts of the city.

And then comes the Eid to end this beautiful month of blessings of Allah (s.w.t) and the people offer the Eid prayer and embrace each other. Pakistanis celebrate Ramadan in a wonderful way. There are few countries in the world where any event is celebrated in such a special way like they are held in Pakistan and Ramadan peaks them all.

DHA Lahore Leads; Rest Just Follow

DHA Lahore has been in this business for the past 37 years and ever since its launch in 1975, it has held its position of a leader in the property market of Lahore. They have come up with innovative ideas over the years and the peaceful environment that this pioneer of real estate development in Pakistan provides tops the chart of reasons why one should choose DHA Lahore to be his home.

DHA Lahore was initially established as a colony for the retired and on duty army officers. However, in the later years, when the public saw the advanced lifestyle of this area, they flocked to this place and soon the DHA Lahore became the favorite of the investors. The property developers took the decision to open it for public to buy the property and the decision certainly bore fruit as today, DHA Lahore is in the final phases of completing the Phase 9 of the society while the Phase 10 has already been announced.

The adjacent areas have also been taken in by the society and this has led to enormous rise in the property market of those areas. The primary reason of the success of DHA Lahore is the peaceful and clean atmosphere that this society provides coupled with the international standard security system of the society. The business opportunities obviously pop up when progress in real estate of a particular area is observed and so it happened in DHA Lahore as well.

Today, DHA Lahore has a number of restaurants and shopping malls inside the society. Banquet halls of the best quality are present in DHA Lahore and a large number of companies have their offices in DHA now. The main reason behind this has been the exceptional security system of the society but the main reason is that only the richest in the city move to Defence Housing Authority and this has compelled all the banks and malls to launch their franchises and branches in here.

Thus, today the DHA is the best housing society in the city and the standards this society has set have really boosted the living standards of the people as no new society in Pakistan real estate can offer any less than DHA Lahore to be successful in the business. DHA Lahore has proved its credentials and has become the pioneer in the industry of real estate development and construction quality in the country and it wont be incorrect if one says that it is the DHA that leads; rest just follow their footsteps.

Farmers Being Empowered by PPP Government, says Mr. Dahar

Jam Mahtab Hussain Dahar, the Provincial Minister for Revenue, announced in a media briefing that the PPP government in this tenure has allotted 56,187n acres of land among poor farmers who did not have a land of their own. They were landless and a large number of the people among whom the land has been distributed are women and the government had taken this initiative in order to provide farmers with a respectable source of income.

The total number of allottees is 60,069 and around 80% of the allottees are women and this proves that the current government has paid special attention to women, taking them a step nearer of the dream of their leader Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto of women empowerment. He said this act of the government will certainly help them to eliminate the poverty in the country and especially among the women.

The minister also told that not only the government is providing them with land but also with financial assistance up to Rs. 58000 which has certainly made life much easier for the farmers and it also ensures that the land will get cultivated and will not lay wasted due to dearth of funds. The government is also providing, told he, the seeds, fertilizers and other important facilities that are a must for the farmer and only government of Peoples Party has given all these grant packages to the poor farmers.

He also resolved that this practice will continue in the future and the government will continue its tireless efforts to fulfill the dreams of Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto of empowering the poor farmers and lower class of the society so that Pakistan’s agricultural economy of Pakistan can flourish and bear fruit for both the state as well as the farmers.
