Dr. Tahira Haroon 
 &
Her research work 
 ***********************************
Knowledge has been started from Alps of Greece, and spread on globe like a mushroom. Today knowledge super high way is full with rushed of ideas, reliable, theories and doctrines. We are also a part of this super high way but our wisdom careers are rich with faith, religion and literature wealth as well as pay box.  Some crazy people are involving in natural and supernatural sciences. It is fact that mentioned situation is at the knowledge World Centers but if we mirrored our own Circle Bakote, we find many crazy ladies and gentlemen who madly injected in knowledge’s holes. Dr. Tahira Horon is legendary lady of Birote Alvi Awan micro-nation who is an effigy of Mathematics entirely. She is first mathematician who got her PhD degree from any Pakistani university. 

Family Background
Prof. Dr. Tahira Haroon belonged to nobel leading and scholarly both in religiously and modern conceptual Alvi Awan tribe of Birote, district and tehsil Abbottabad. His forefather MOLANA MIAN QAZI NAIK MOHAMMED ALVI came from Qummi Kote, Azad Kashmir in 1836 in UC Birote on invitation of local Dhund Abbasi chief MAKHMOOD KHAN (Bahgo Khan) who put all his family responsibilities.  His grand father  MOLANA MIAN QAZI HAIDER ALI ALVI was step son of famous leader of spiritualism in Hazara and Kashmir HAZRAT PIR FAQIRULLAH BAKOTI. His father late Babu Mohammed Irfan was a self made personality with highest educational concepts that he applied on his progenies successfully. He was also a legend of his tribe and his progressive thoughts have revolutionized all his tribe and mother land fellows.
