Department of English
It is my great honor to serve as Chair of the Department of English at Govt. Girls Postgraduate College No. 1, Abbottabad. This role has presented me with both challenges and opportunities, allowing me to grow and experience leadership in new ways.
I am deeply committed to providing high-quality education to all BS students, empowering them to engage fully in curricular and co-curricular activities and realize their full potential.
The study of English language and literature goes beyond mastering language—it is about exploring new worlds, embracing diverse perspectives, and expressing oneself with clarity and confidence.
Let us continue working collaboratively to uphold our standards and strive for even greater achievements. I encourage open communication, fresh ideas, and a shared vision for our department’s future. Together, we can make a meaningful impact.
