Obviously in face of deficient facilities it becomes a feat when someone residing there finds a niche for himself or herself in some area of activity. Credo quia impossibilis-i believe because it is impossible. And Rasiq Hamid Shah pursued his goal with this in mind perhaps and qualified JKAS. That is why his success is being celebrated with a visible zeal by one and all here, and i’m one among them. May Allah bestow all that is sweet and graceful upon him and may he prove a torch-bearer for other youngsters here and around! Amen!”, Ab Rehman Unto,one of his inspirational teacher said,
