Mussarat Piracha's Girls High School was a prominent and well-maintained private institute run by Mrs. Mussarat Jaffery nee Piracha. The school was established back in 1967 in the area of Pakki Thatti, Multan Road Lahore with the title name of Mussarat Middle Girls School for 4 consecutive years. In 1971, the school was nationalized by Bhutto's government. Under government administration, the school abandoned its goals and the standard of education became worse and worst. In this situation, most parents removed their children from the school. (click right picture to enlarge) In 1977 the parents who had already experienced the standard and quality of education rendered by Miss Mussarat Piracha compelled her to re-establish the school. So after a pause of six years, it re-formulated its academic services with new style and refreshed stamina in a rented building located at main boulevard, Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore. Its name was then decided Mussarat Piracha's Girls High School. On December 29, 1981, a seminar was organized at Hotel Flatti's, Lahore under the banner of Anjuman-e-Bahali-e-Mazooran, Lahore chaired by Mr. Jamshaid Pirzada and presided over by Mr. Zakir Hussain Qureshi Provincial Minister for Social Welfare and Religious Affairs, Punjab. This seminar was conducted in relevance to 1981-International Year for the Disabled Persons embraced by the United Nations and well-echoed globally including Pakistan. I was invited to read a paper Kiya Mazoori Aik Roag Hai? in the said seminar; broadcasted same evening on Radio Pakistan Lahore Channel-2. After the seminar, a lady in the wheelchair asked me, "Where I'm working?" I answered, "Nothing, I remained free at home". She said, "A person with such brilliant vision and feelings, must not stay idle at home". She offered me to work with her at her girls high school, which I accepted with high gratitude. As a token of our first meeting, I presented her my poetry book Numa-e-Gham very humbly and she was delighted to see it. The day after tomorrow on December 31, 1981, I attended another seminar in Town Hall, Lahore conducted by Punjab Social Welfare Department. Here the lady (Mussarat Piracha) announced that she has appointed me as her PRO (Public Relation Officer). It was a great turning point in my life and I was extremely very passionate to join the office. With great fervor and dedicated determination, I joined my office on January 4, 1982 located at Allama Iqbal Town, Lahore. Next day; on January 5, 1982, the Principal, very kindly presented me a brand new wheelchair for domestic use. It significantly facilitate my home life as it provided me massive liberty to move myself around home. On Saturday, 9th January 1982, the school held a function at Educational Hall, Lahore Museum on the occasion of Eid Milad-un-Nabi. In this function, expressing my immense confidence on stage, I presented an Islamic Quiz Show. It was my first performance on a stage which was highly successful while the audience liked it most.
My literary thirst well quenched at school platform, where I done a great creative work and wrote speeches, compositions, dramas, scripts, parodies, poems and also manage quizzes on various national and religious occasions. I also unveiled, polished and proved my designing capabilities and other talents by giving extra time even after school hours. This sincere dedication effected my overall health and some pressure sores developed due to unrested long sittings. I apparently always compromised with my health problems but never give-up my work because I love working. While I got computer training well beside my service in late afternoons, my medical problem get worse and worst due to unrested long sittings causing pressure sores. At last, in the capacity of Manager, I resigned on medical grounds heavy-heartily after a service of 18+ years without claiming any retirement benefits. Thus my multi-natured activities converted to my newly established home-based Pentium Graphics Center & Training Institute.
