They were doing this fund rasing for National Commission on Human Development in The Jinnah Convention Center in Islamabad. The NCHD under the leadership of Dr. Naseem Ashraf is working in the rural areas of Pakistan into bringing poor kids and adults in school.
President Mushraff was there in the begining of the transmission. Imran Khan was also there along with Mr. Edhi. Then Jaanshir Khan came along.
I think the biggest highlights were when Fekher-e-alm sold Imran Khan’s signed bat for 10 lakhs to some Chohdary in England. Then I think the last bidding on Jaanshir’s racket was 19 lakhs. Also Dr. Naseem speaking Pushto on stage with Jaanshir was really something. I’m a half pathan myself so really relished that moment. Also school kids donating from their pocket money was an emotional moment as well.
Bushra Insari, Sania Saeed, Fakher-e-alam as hosts really brought in life to the transmission. Within 4 or 5 hours into transmissoin they had raised a little over 14 crores and I think it’s still on. Great work :k:
