The Speaker made this observation while announcing the presence of students of Benazir Bhutto Shaheed Cadet College Larkana of Pakistan Sweet Homes in the visitors’ gallery. The House welcomed the visiting students by thumping desks. The students witnessed the House proceedings for quite some time.

He said the founder of Pakistan Sweet Homes Zamurad Khan’s had the vision to set up such cadet colleges in every district of the country. “We appreciated the services of Zamurad Khan and assured our full support to him in advancing the welfare work.” The Speaker said Zamurad Khan had dedicated his entire life to this cause and today these children were studying in the best universities and colleges in the country. “It is a matter of pride for us that dozens of girls of the nation have been selected and studied at Benazir Bhutto Shaheed Cadet College, Larkana and these girls are here today who belong to all four provinces, Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir.”
