I am sure none of you have ever thought where is the TEAM of PAK TEA HOUSE the 1st owner and his family? I don’t think anything is mentioned about the family owner of the PAK TEA HOUSE. Just said little about Siraj Ud Din Ahmed(late) and not even mentioned the name of the person who had been running the place since 1978 after the death of Mr.Siraj. What a double standard of our WRITERS LIKE A.HAMEED. He doesn’t even remember that who told him about that Sikh person who was staring! I know the family of PTH. I know how much they have suffered because of our print and electronic media and the 3rd class writers such as A.Hameed, Hussain Majrooh, Jawaid Aftab, Intizar Hussain, Asrar Zaidi and all other rubbish whom you think they are very big names. I know the family who had been running the business since 1948. I am one of them! I am Mr. Zahid Hassan’s son who is a current owner of this place IF ANY OF YOU LIKE TO KNOW WHY PTH HAD BEEN CLOSED DOWN? What ever have read and advertised about my family on our MEDIA was wrong. You are more then welcome if wants to know more about our PTH. This is not a proper way degrate someone.Islam and humanity does not allow us to do such things .Anyway I graduated from dental college lahore .I personally like to go to pth i am very happy that someone remind me my past..keep it up .

Infact they have vanished lahori traditions. No body has come forward and bodly say please save our traditional place other wise it could have been servived because lahori people can sacrifise money to safe the traditional place. I hope Inshallah Pak Tea House will be reopened with the efforts of young and old people.

Indeed, we should meet but alas only in the blogosphere as the real Pak Tea House is long dead and gone. This is why we have set up this space to revive the original spirit, even if in a truncated manner, of the great idea. Let's hope this youn blog-zine turns into a platform for writers and those who care. Looking forward to your visits again cheers Raza Rockestani

But I'm following it since its conception. During intial days, it seemed good and proper and informative. I liked reading it. But something has changed. I'm reading it almost daily since past few days and only now have I realised what a precious blog it is. So wonderful. My best wishes to the entire team.
