Mera Passion Pakistan - Dil Ki Aankhain

Buner: Born blind in an underprivileged background, Mohammad Iqbal struggled for a normal life and now has it all down including a Facebook presence! With no means to facilitate him, Iqbal grew up under his parent's supervision and learned everything he knew, including English, by listening to the radio and television.
As a teenager he decided to gain a real education even if it meant starting from nursery. "I'm handicapped, but I'm not helpless" said Iqbal who successfully passed his Matricular examinations in a year, graduated top of his class in college and defied his parent's fears by setting off to learn Braille in Karachi. Iqbal is keen about computers and even held a month long session to teach handicapped and special people how to use them.
Today he studies Social Sciences at Peshawar University, plays cricket and helps his fellow students with their academics. His father beams with pride and says: "If you want to achieve something in life you have to be confident and willing to risk it all. My son taught me that."
