The above award is being sought within the theme of Transforming Education. The

Having invested 8 years in the corporate world and having gained practical insights of

innovation by establishing the following two new institutions in the history of Pakistan:
1. Institute of Business Administration, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan.
This was the second Business School established in the history of Pakistan and the first
one established in the history of Punjab, the largest populated Province of the
country. By imparting quality education he transformed the education into innovative
intiative. One of the products of this Institution was appointed as the honourable
Finance Minister of the Government of Pakistan during 2009-10. One of them served as
an Economic Advisor to the honourable Prime Minister of Pakistan, Benazir Bhutto
(1990s). One of them enriched the society by establishing the first Entertainment Park

financial institutions by identifying risks, boosting exports, establishing textiles mills,
accelerating socio-economic development of the country and in several other fields.
The outstanding products of the Institute have helped the country to alleviate poverty,
promoted self-employment and generated employment for hundreds of people.

initiatives opened up new vistas of national and international service by meeting the
challenges of human resource development which has been a crying need of
developing countries in general and that of Pakistan in particular.
