I was born in Lahore

I was born in Lahore in Lady Aitchison Hospital in 1950, three years after Pakistan became independent. Lahore came into being in about the first century AD. It is one of the oldest towns in Pakistan and is located on the bank of the river Ravi. There is a lot of history here but somehow the local people are not quite interested in history. There are different reasons for that. Today it is the second largest city of Pakistan and the provincial capital of Punjab. I moved back to Lahore three years ago and intend never to leave it.
