The project will now be known as Arfa Karim IT Media City.
The decision to rename the mega project was taken on the request of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) chief Altaf Hussain.
According to a press release issued by the MQM, the IT Media City is a world class project spread over 200 acres of land near the Super Highway.
Arfa, 16 years old, child prodigy, Microsoft professional and winner of the president’s Pride of Performance, breathed her last on January 14 at the Combined Military Hospital in Lahore.
The IT genius had an epileptic attack on December 22 and had been in a coma since, while well-wishers prayed and watched her progress closely.

Would like to request all Pakistanis to Pray for Arfa May Allah rest her soul in peace and grant her best place in Janat UL Firdous(Ameen) and May Allah give Patience to the grieved family (Her parents ) courage to cope with the loss and sterngth to bear this loss.
A very outstanding job by Arfa. i appreciate you from the core of my heart. may Your soul rest in peace.Aamen.
Such a good announcement to our Sindh Information Technology (IT) Minister Raza Haroon, Bcoz she was a vary intelligent daughter in our nation (Arifa Karim Randhawa). May your soul rest in Peace, amen.
Thankfully she is the right sect otherwise no building would have been named in her honour even if she brought Nobel Prize.

Very appreciating decissions by both leaders to remember Arfa Karim. The Core Commander Lahore is also requested to name the Children's Ward CMH Lahore Arfa Karim Children's Ward. Where she is under treatment and well looked after by the Doctors and staff.
We will always miss u Arfaa as a daughter of nation. May Allah bless u.
why dont they rename karachi university or punjab university after malalla and arfaa,s names?
Using the innocent girl's name for political purposes. Ridiculous.
Commendable job and for better than naming it to the so called political shaheeds.
i miss u sister.

Totally nice decision. Looking forward for more dedication to her
Excellent decision....by Shabaz Sharif & Altaf Hussain....
..some times Allah can get Good deeds done by even those who may not be that good!!!
@Mr.Critique That's why no one is asking you sir.
It is the right decision.
In this way Araf Karim will always be remembered by the generations to come.
Good job. I would also appreciate if Microsoft Pakistan can initiate some sort of foundation, or honour in her honour.
@Critique: Totally disagree.
That'll be pretty motivating for the young kids . nice move
Best way to honor a well deserving citizen of Pakistan. Arfa, this is the least we can do for you. May your soul rest in Peace, amen.
Overdoing it if you ask me..
