National Constitution Day 2019 was celebrated with great zeal and fervour at Bibi Fatima Hall. The residents participated in the events with enthusiasm and also encouraged others to do so.

The events were conducted by Ms. Taqdees Mariam, Senior Literary Secretary, and Ms. Alisha Khan, Joint Literary Secretary of the Hall. At 6 30 p.m. twelve teams of two members each assembled in the dining hall to compete in a quiz competition about the constitution. 6 teams proceeded to the second round and finally, 5 teams emerged at the top three ranks, due to recurring ties.

Ms. Taqdees Mariam delivered the welcome address, followed by an introduction of Prof. Samdani by the Provost, Prof. Ghazala Parveen. Prof. Samdani then began his talk, and the audience was immediately enraptured. His talk focused mainly on the Preamble, which is the foundation for the entire Constitution, and then continued on to the relevance of Fundamental Rights and Duties in today's society. His words were very well received by the audience. Prof. Samdani wrapped up his talk by directing attention towards the need to do good and to give back to society in the best way possible.
