Government College University, Lahore (GCU, formerly GC) - Punjab, Pakistan

One of the most prestigious educational institutes of Pakistan, Government College was established on 1st January 1864 and temporarily housed in the Zilla School in a portion of Raja Dhyan Singh's Haveli. In April 1871 the college moved to a large Bungalow near Anarkali. In 1873 its location was changed to another house called Rahim Khans Kothi. It was in 1876 that the college moved into the present building.

The construction had started almost in mid 1872 and was completed in 1877. Situated in the heart of the city, the site is surrounded by main business and administrative areas, schools, colleges and Punjab University old Campus. Presently raised to the status of university, Government College University (GCU) site is located at the junction of the Mall and the Lower Mall and occupies a focal point.

I am a Ravian. I bite my finger several times before I enjoy the feeling of being a Ravian. It was like a dream come true. I walked on the same passages where once Dr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal had walked. I passed through the same corridors where once Dr. Abdul Salam had passed and this always made me proud. The clock tower of GCU looks like a dwarf before these light house personalities. (I completed my M.Phil. (Physics) here in 2006-08)
