Our Story

With the prayers and blessings of Almighty God, and after dedicating a significant portion of my life to the Higher Education Commission (HEC) and engaging with universities and institutions of higher learning across the globe, I felt a strong desire to establish a prestigious educational institution in my native town, Hajiwala. The motivation behind this endeavor stemmed from my 52 kanals of inherited land and the skills I acquired throughout my career. With unwavering support from my family, who contributed all of our savings to this mission, we began this journey.

On May 8, 2014, I took the first step toward realizing this dream by commencing the construction of an annex to serve as a residence and the first academic block to house a technical training institute. The vision was to eventually transform this into a full-fledged engineering university. The annex was completed in 2015, and by 2018, the academic block was ready to welcome students.

This venture was not without its challenges, as many of my companions advised against it, fearing the risk of our resources. However, the structure of this institute was physically raised, and the first phase of my dream became a reality.

We have now entered the next phase, successfully establishing a college and degree college for girls, affiliated with the Gujranwala Board and the University of Gujrat. Additionally, we have expanded our educational offerings to include Montessori through Grade 10, ensuring a comprehensive educational experience from early childhood through higher secondary levels.

I extend a warm welcome to all residents of the region to join, support, and contribute to this noble endeavor as we strive to achieve our goal of becoming a leading, result-oriented educational institution in the region.
