The tragedy of Peshawar and Lahore is the same for the people of Peshawar and Lahore. Ata-ul-Haq Qasmi is sometimes talked to on WhatsApp. On one occasion he said in response to my column on the eroded civilization of Peshawar He said that the grief of the people of Peshawar over the old Peshawar is the same as the grief of the senior citizens of Lahore about their city. Everybody is proud of the disappearance of K. In fact, out of the number of Pashuris, the senior citizens have a common mental illness. That is that our city is not what it was in our boyhood. The city that was inhabited in our childhood is no more. The childhood memories of the street coaches of Peshawar city are just memories.
What to look for them now. What has passed is gone. Sometimes the heart feels bitter, the memories take over, the rays illuminate the dark house of the heart with its sweet fragrance. Peshawar is Peshawar then. There will be no memory of this beautiful city. So there will be no meeting with this city. The 16-door city that was once the capital of the Mughal ruler of Peshawar, Nawab Nasir Khan. Where the old bricks of the walls of the streetcars behind which a world of memories is closed are still present in some places in the name of the walled city. Although this wall was demolished by the citizens to solve their purpose, but it still exists in the form of a few pieces. Patterns of architecture can be easily seen. Then if you turn right beyond Ganj, then the right hand can still be seen shedding tears on that wall.
Then Ganj passes in front of Teddy door If you reach outside, then the same wall is shading the houses of the citizens here. Then if you go down, the Teddy Gate comes before the Kohati Gate. The Teddy Gate and then the Cold Lost Gate. The next door is called Asia Gate. These gates stand along City Circular Road. Ever since we regained consciousness, we have I didn't see any door here. But there was the idea of doors. In the past, the Pashuri minister of the KP government renovated and erected these gates in their present condition. Named after Lahore Gate. If you leave Kohati Darwaza, this road leads to Kohat, so it is called Kohati Darwaza. Then there are other gates which are spread around the city.
Peshawar inside the gates is called Old Peshawar. Lahore Near the door is the Hashtnagri Gate. If you go out of this gate, then the road that goes beyond the gate in those days would lead to eight cities. Therefore, it was called the gate of Hasht, meaning the eight cities (areas). From here, Charsadda Mardan Shabqadar and other cities come, so it was changed from Hashtnagar to Hashtnagri. According to the poet, "Maqam Faiz is not in any way.
Those who come out of Koi Yar should go to sleep." Were the Jaghadri people a shelter for the poor? Now you judge for yourself among these so-called rural people. Who will mention us? We will not have anyone to ask. In such a situation, where can the mental illness of the people of Peshawar, ie the memory of old Peshawar, be erased from their minds. It will be remembered by breaking it
