  2. Wonderful example of unity to the new generation. That is not just a gift but the symbol of sincerity to their beautiful area and people. Every individual has to contribute that much how much they can. I wish this should be the starting point of contribution and all the youth should be a part of it to give anything to their people they need…….

    I want to congrate the scouts for placing such an example to all those who are selfish and don’t think for the betterment of the North Pakistan. Today the world is facing an economic crisis and if we remain alone and never thought about the unity we will be unable to overcome this crisis.

    At last but not least, I wish you all Happy Imamat Day Mubarak.

  7. On behalf of the Gulmit boyscouts group i would like to thank all those who contributed to this project, whether it was financial, social or moral. it was a great challenge for us to make it possible. first by the grace of Allah and then with the contribution of the society it became to the final stage.
    I would like to mention the objective of this purchase that our programmes were really disturbed whether they were religious or social or political, but our area of focus was on religious programmes, keeping in view this issue it was important for us to purchase a sound system.. Gulmit being the largest village in population has the need of this instrument.
    Once again thanks to all those who supported.
    Thank You

  9. It gives me immense pleasure to learn that The Open Ismialia Boys Scouts Group Gulmit has finally overcame the problem of microphone system; we usually face during the events in Gulmit. This shows that if our youth wants to overcome any problem they can. I personally appreciate and acknowledge their tremendous efforts. I am sure the best use of this particular equipment will be ensured as well.

    Well done boys!
