Pakistan’s first electronic grave belongs to Dr Ruth Pfao
Located in Karachi's 'Gora Qabrustan', Pakistan's first electronic grave belongs to late German-born philanthropist Dr Ruth Pfao, who dedicated her life to fighting leprosy in the country.
KARACHI: In a ground-breaking invention, Pakistan introduced its first-ever electronic grave that functions on the QR scan technology.
Located in Karachi in the 'Gora Cemetery', the grave belongs to late German-born philanthropist Dr Ruth Pfao, who dedicated her life to fighting leprosy in Pakistan.
The smart electronic grave comes with a QR code that visitors can scan on their phones to access information about the late humanitarian and the lifelong services she rendered in helping out lepers.
After devoting almost 55 years of her life to this mission, Dr Pfao passed away at the age of 87 on August 10, 2017 leaving many deeply aggrieved.
She had been honoured with a state funeral that was broadcasted nationally.
Hailed as the ‘Mother Teresa of Pakistan’, Dr Pfao still lives on in people's hearts that she had touched over the years in her effort to make Pakistan leprosy-free.
