Islamabad: Mausikaar Welfare Trust, established in 2007 by physicians and surgeons of this culture-starved city for preservation of traditional music of Pakistan, keeping its tradition organised here a Sham-e-Ghazal.

Dr Seema Khan as usual was the moving spirit and also stage secretary of the programme. She is President of the trust and mostly flews all the way from England to organise and attend the function. Her hubby, Dr Baber also accompanied her from UK this time.

Despite shivering cold, it attracted a good number of music lovers to whom wooden logs were trying to provide warmth and cosiness. Dr Seema briefly touched history of Mausikaar which had to be re-registered after Covid debacle.
