No wonder, under Nazir Sahib’s tutelage, music became a permanent feature of Government College’s character
With the demise of Tariq Farani sahib, the world is poorer in having lost a selfless and dedicated person. His unflinching loyalty to Government College University, Lahore, and to his life-long passion music made him unique among all his colleagues and peers.
He was an incarnation of Nazir Ahmed Music society. (The society was first founded in 1930s and went by the name of Culture Club. It was later named as Nazir Ahmad Music Society.) Prof Nazir Ahmad, a former Government College principal, was a great music enthusiast. For him, like Friedrich Nietzsche, a life without music would be a mistake.
