In a significant stride toward fostering intellectual growth and creative expression, the University of Central Punjab recently launched the first session of its Surbuland Talks series with an inspiring event titled “Kahani Sans Leti Hai.” This unique gathering welcomed renowned personalities from Pakistan’s art and literary circles: Ms. Bee Gul, Mr. Sohaib Mugheera, Ms. Amna Mufti, and Mr. Muhammad Hassan Miraj, who shared their insights on the profound impact of storytelling.
Each speaker brought a unique perspective to the table, emphasizing that when viewed through the lens of art and literature, stories carry the power to evoke deep emotions and illuminate the complexities of human experiences. Their discussions explored how narratives, enriched with cultural, social, and historical nuances, hold the ability to transcend time and space, leaving a lasting impact on minds and hearts alike.
The session was not just a dialogue but an enlightening experience—a space where the power of ideas and imagination came alive. Through storytelling, the speakers illustrated how art and literature serve as mirrors to society, capturing its essence and evoking introspection and empathy.
This inaugural Surbuland Talk is part of UCP’s broader initiative to create enriching platforms that encourage critical thought, creativity, and cultural engagement. The university aims to continue hosting such events, bringing leading figures from various disciplines to share their journeys and philosophies with the academic community.
Through Kahani Sans Leti Hai, UCP reaffirmed its commitment to not only academic excellence but also to nurturing a vibrant environment where students and faculty can experience the transformative power of literature and the arts. This event exemplifies UCP’s mission to cultivate a community that values intellectual exploration, artistic expression, and the beauty of diverse perspectives.
