I was brought up here and started my early education from one of the oldest convent school established in 1861 “St. Patrick’s High School” from where many notables have studied including our former President (Honorable Gen. Pervez Musharraf) and Prime Minister (Mr. Shaukat Aziz).I was one of the brilliant students in the class and always stood among the top three students.
