After spending thirty long years abroad, Dr. Tariq Mahmood, also known as Nadeem, finally returned to his native village. As he stepped into the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings, he was struck by a profound sense of amazement. The mud houses he remembered had been replaced by sturdy brick homes, the village roads were now paved, and every household had connections for gas and electricity. Bicycles were now replaced with motorcycles and cars, and traditional oxen used for farming had been substituted with modern machinery. It was clear that, over time, his village had progressed and developed significantly.
