Indian poets enthrall KU students

The Audio-Visual Centre of the Arts Faculty, University of Karachi (KU) was packed to the capacity with the students of the Urdu Department. They were patiently waiting for the Indian poets who were in the city to participate in Mushairas organized by the Jang Group in connection with the initiative of ‘Aman Ki Asha’ in association with the Times of India Group.

The Department of Urdu had invited acclaimed Indian poets including Nida Fazli, Khushbeer Singh Shaad, Shahnaz Nabi, Ahmed Mahfooz and Tarannum Riaz for a lunch as well as a poetry recital. This was done to get the students oriented with their poetry and the message of love that they have brought from India.

The poets were accompanied by the Vice Chancellor KU Dr Pirzada Qasim, Group Editor Jang Mahmood Sham and Chairman of the Urdu Department Dr Zafar Iqbal.

The Indian poets enthralled the students and the teachers with their recitals of intricately woven verses that spoke of love and care that the people of both the countries had for each other.
