Tragic, may his soul rest in peace. Here I would like to say that without any experience youngsters and elderly people start driving bikes and jeeps that cause fatal accident. On Eid day another retired teacher died in washich along with another man while driving a Jimny. Govt departments especially police should deploy personnel to check driving licences of drivers and bikers to avoid accident.
Very sad, please convey our heartfelt condolence to Pir of Pardan and family.
Very shocking news for us. it is a great loss. Shahzada Ajam was a humble, kind, caring and honest person. I express my heartfelt condolence to bereaved family. May Allah rest his soul in peace and give courage and strength to family members to bear this irreparable loss.
Rest in eternal peace… Sad and shocking news
