Shoaib | 8 years ago | Reply It is brave enough of them to continue studying in the same classrooms where they saw their friends butchered. What have you done to make someone cheerful? Nothing? Thought so.

Waseem Sarwar | 8 years ago | Reply Very good step. Let's hope future edition of PSL can be held in country and these kids can watch their heroes in their own grounds.
