REVIVAL OF GLORY:
This author started work on “The Geniuses of
Kasur” in his early boyhood but every one use to
say, OK, but these Geniuses are doing nothing for
the convenience of the general public of Kasur.
Instead of being flustered I remained but optimist.
And to avoid negative cursing the darkness I am
resolved to enlighten positively some candles on
my part and initiate some constructive activities: I
would like to narrate as what with the
circumference of my friends I have contributed for
promoting Kasur welfare cause.
