KARACHI - The inauguration of a newly constructed park at Clifton beach, named after Capt Farhan Ali Shaheed, a martyr from Karachi, would be held on December 26.
DHA Administrator Brig Aamer Raza Qureshi would be the chief guest at the ceremony.
According to a DHA statement issued on Friday, the new park is spread over an area of six acres at the beach. It has four large grassy plots, five sitting platforms, a kiosk and marbled walk ways. Four high mast LED lights have been fixed at the park and adequate parking facilities at the venue have also been provided.
The park is named after a valiant officer, Capt Farhan Ali of 26 Punjab Regiment, who embraced martyrdom on April 3, 2011 in operation “Rah-e-Nijat” against terrorists at Darra Adam Khel.
Capt Farhan Ali, despite heavy odds and having been surrounded by terrorists, fought dauntlessly against them and thus wrote a golden chapter of courage and bravery in the annals of history.
Capt Farhan Ali was the son of Lt Col (retd) Nasrullah Khan, staff officer to the DHA administrator.
