Fakhr e Gunyar

Fakhr-e-Gunyar (the Pride of Gunyar) made its debut on Facebook on 24TH April 2014, as a Closed Group and was established by Mr. Waqar Ahmed (one of the Administrator). As of 31st October 2017 nearly 630 individuals joined its ever growing fold. The group activities are monitored by a team of 8 Administrators with prescribed guidelines. Only the village natives, wherever they might be settled, are eligible for the membership. The Group has also introduced an instant messaging service through which alerts of news updates and important events are sent to the Cell Phones connected to its network. The instant stream of messages relating to deaths and funeral prayers are widely appreciated by end users. The attempt of the Group to bring out its 2017 calendar is aimed at country-wide introduction of not only Gunyar as a role model village but also its highly educated, skillful and talented cadre. The group management is optimistic of receiving from all pertinent quarters the appreciation, recognition and accolades that is so earnestly deserves.
