DUBAI — In connection with the Pakistan National Day celebrations, the Consulate-General of Pakistan and DSF organising committee will conduct a stage play, “Breaking News”, at Shaikh Rashid Pakistan School, Dubai, on Thursday at 8pm.
Renowned artists Ummar Sharif and Sohail Warriach will perform during the function. Tableaus by school children will be another attraction of the evening.
Jamil Ahmed Khan, Pakistan Ambassador to the UAE, and Tariq Iqbal Soomro, Consul-General, will be the chief guests.
