Gulfam's father's name is Syed Chirag Ali Shah and mother's name is Syeda Ghulam Jannat.

And for the training of women, I established a sewing and embroidery center in my house. Masha Allah, both the children of Gulfam have grown up and are living a happy married life after marriage. Gulpham started writing poetry from childhood, he recited his first poem in sixth grade. She is writing ghazals and poems in Urdu and Punjabi so far 4 collections of her poetry have been published. His first book of poetry is "Sahare Mil Hi Jaite Hain" and second collection is "Karb Ki Kok Mein".

A ghazal as a sample from Gulfam Sahiba's poetry is offered to the readers

When my anklet speaks Katha
I keep quiet, Ghanghor speaks softly

The knocks are on the closed shafts
Wasal's when she prays on my lips

Old people used to say about me
This is a girl named Gul who speaks Naya

Tell me what is the beating of my heart
If you don't take your name, what does it say?

It sings love songs and there is silence
When Abla pa speaks in Aashiqui Dasht

Who has the courage to touch your soil?
If modesty speaks in your tone

I have brought a letter of your name
The wind whispers through the earring

I remain silent in his proximity
My bangle speaks for my aanchal

Gulfam Naqvi

                                  Over the last few weeks, the Balochistan government made the controversial decision of ending the jurisdiction of the Levies Force in the districts of Quetta, Lasbela and Gwadar. Levies still exist in these districts but are restricted to its stations and cannot perform law enforcement functions. This decision will affect local policing in these three districts of Balochistan.  Historically, the province has been divided into “A” and “B” areas for policing. Areas under category A include urban zones and these are under the jurisdiction of the police. B areas are made up of rural areas, which are under the jurisdiction of Balochistan Levies, a local force comprising the people from the same district where it is based. A areas only make up five percent of the province, whereas the B areas make up 95 percent of the province.  In 2003, President Musharraf merged L...

                                                                                           Look at the personalities in the bureaucracy who serve the people but in return receive a salary from the government. Look at the political leaders who provide services to the nation and in return receive compensation and benefits.   If we look at the doctors who are the messiah of the society, they charge their own fees for the treatment they provide to the patients. Similarly, we lawyers who speak of justice in any society but they also charge fees from the seekers of justice. We even look at the laborers who take wages in return for their hard work so that their parents can fulfill those noble responsibilities.  In a materialistic age where we see everyo...
