- Welcome to Khanspur by shirazi May 19, 2007 chowrangi.pk. Comments at the bottom include " a place in which I spent some time in my youth. At that time i.e. 1934/1936 it was a hill station for the British Army and the families would stay here whilst their men were serving on the plains in places such as Risalpur, Nowshera and Rawalpindi. I smell pine trees these days and the memory of Khanspur comes flooding back to me, a memory that is evocative of extreme, youthful pleasure pursuits".
