Islamabad Wildlife Management Board (IWMB) is a Pakistani government body operating under the Ministry of Climate Change. It is mandated to protect, manage, and conserve the Margalla Hills National Park as its legal custodian.^[1]

It was set up in 2015^[2] under Section 4 of the Islamabad Wildlife (Protection, Preservation, Conservation and Management) Ordinance 1979. It was officially notified on 7 July 2015 by the Prime Minister of Pakistan.^[3][4]

Rina Saeed Khan is the current Chairperson of the Board,^[5][6][7] having been appointed in 2021.^[8]

The Federal Government of Pakistan issued the Islamabad Wildlife (Protection, Preservation, Conservation and Management) Ordinance 1979 to protect the environment and wildlife in the Islamabad Capital Territory. The ordinance provided for the establishment of the Margalla Hills National Park (MHNP) in 1980, covering the Margalla Hills, Rawal Lake, and Shakarparian. Moreover, a Wildlife Management Board headed by the Chairman of Capital Development Authority (CDA) and comprising of CDA as well as federal government officials was also notified under this ordinance. This Board, however, was dysfunctional, while the National Park was being managed by the Environment Wing of CDA without oversight.^[9]

On 30 September 2014, Z B Mirza, a zoologist and field expert, filed a petition in the Islamabad High Court, calling to attention the poor condition of the MHNP. A meeting attended by Mirza, the Cabinet Division, and CDA officials led to a discussion of the Board, and the resulting recommendations were sent to the federal government. As a result, the Islamabad Wildlife Management Board (IWMB) was notified on 7 July 2015. Dr. Anis-ur-Rehman was appointed the Chairman via a Cabinet Division notification on 10 August 2015.^[10]

Nowkhaiz hails from Gujranwala, a small city located in the north of the Punjab province of Pakistan. His parents are from a village in Punjab called Narowal. His father was a banker by profession and his mother was a school teacher.

In 2004, Nowkhaiz got enrolled in Cadet College Hasan Abdal for his secondary education. He applied for the National Outreach Program at LUMS soon afterwards, and was admitted into the institute. After his first year at LUMS as an undergrad, Nowkhaiz chose Economics & Political Sciences as his dual-major.

After graduating from LUMS in 2013, he took a job at Bagitt, a start-up founded by a fellow LUMS graduate. While the start-up did not survive, it gave Nowkhaiz the knowledge of running a start-up as well as the digital side of retailing. It was during this time that Rocket Internet was venturing into the Pakistani market by starting a few companies to test the waters. He then worked as Shopistan as Head of Strategy till 2016, the same year he founded Tazadaily, a subscription-based grocery start-up.

In December 2016, Nowkhaiz joined Careem Pakistan as a Vendor Manager, after his friend and now co-founder of Retailo, Wahaj Ahmed convinced him to. Nowkhaiz had to navigate the relationship between Careem and the automobile giants that the company had partnered up with, as the latter dictated which captains (or drivers) would drive their vehicles. However, Nowkhaiz did not enjoy working in this capacity, and soon became a Performance Manager working primarily to come up with incentive programs for the captains joining Careem. He led the strategy team that worked on Careem’s Super App strategy post-Uber acquisition.

In November 2017, Nowkhaiz took on a job in Careem Dubai as a Pricing Analyst and, in just a few months, became the head of the pricing team in Dubai. In July 2020, he left his job at Careem to launch a startup.

In July 2020, Nowkhaiz co-founded Retailo Technologies with his partners Wahaj Ahmed and Talha Ansari, both of whom were also fellow Careem alums. Retailo is the "fastest-growing" B2B startup in MENAP, digitizing retail supply chains in the region. After raising $2.3 million in pre-seed funding in October, Retailo closed a $6.7 million seed round in May 2021 to expand its operations in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan before launching in other regional markets. As a B2B app, Retailo helps retailers adopt an app-based way of acquiring goods for their retail outlets. Retailo headquarters are located in Riyadh, and the company operates in both Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

Muhammad Nowkhaiz is a Pakistani entrepreneur and founder of a variety of different start-ups. Nowkhaiz has been a part of Shopistan, TaazaDaily, and was also a part of Careem as a Head of Strategy.

In July 2020, Nowkhaiz co-founded Retailo Technologies with his partners Wahaj Ahmed and Talha Ansari.

Nowkhaiz is originally from Gujranwala, a small city located in the north of the Punjab province of Pakistan. His parents are from a village in Punjab called Narowal. His father was a banker by profession and his mother was a school teacher.

In 2004, Nowkhaiz got enrolled in Cadet College Hasan Abdal, a prestigious boarding school near Islamabad for his secondary education. Although a boarding school was something his parents could not easily afford, the boarding school education would be pivotal in helping Nowkhaiz enlist in the Pakistani armed forces.  

However, during his first year of his Intermediate education, he heard of the NOP or the National Outreach Program at LUMS. The NOP was established to provide opportunities for higher education at prestigious universities to capable students from all over the country who lacked the financial resources to fund their education.

During his preparatory classes at LUMS, before his admission to the university, the general atmosphere and infrastructure of the university piqued his interest, and much to the disappointment of his parents, he abandoned the notion of joining the army.

After his first year at LUMS as an aspiring undergrad, Nowkhaiz chose Economics & Political Sciences as his dual-major. Nowkhaiz did fear that he was out of place at this institute that accepted students mostly from wealthier backgrounds. Because he completed his credit hours by taking extra courses in the summer semesters, he graduated six months earlier than his batchmates.  His reason to do so was simple: get a head start over his peers and secure a job before them.

However, because no recruitment cycles were running during this time, he took a job at a start-up founded by a fellow LUMS graduate called Bagitt. While the start-up did not survive, it gave Nowkhaiz the exposure he needed to understand the essentials of running a start-up as well as the digital side of retailing.

It was during this time that Rocket Internet was venturing into the Pakistani market by starting a few companies to test the waters.

In 2016, Nowkhaiz joined Careem Pakistan as a Vendor Manager, after his friend and now co-founder of Retailo, Wahaj Ahmed convinced him that Careem would broaden his horizons and give him new opportunities to explore. As a Vendor Manager, Nowkhaiz had to navigate the relationship between Careem and the automobile giants that the company had partnered up with, as the latter dictated which captains (or drivers) would drive their vehicles.

However, Nowkhaiz did not enjoy working in this capacity. Eventually, Nowkhaiz became a Performance Manager working primarily to come up with incentive programs for the captains joining Careem.

In November 2017, Nowkhaiz took on a job in Careem Dubai as a Pricing Analyst and in just a few months became the head of the pricing team in Dubai. In July 2020, he left his job at Careem to pursue his life-long dream of launching a startup with his friends, Wahaj Ahmed and Talha Ansari, both of whom were also fellow Careem alums.

In July 2020, Nowkhaiz co-founded Retailo Technologies with his partners Wahaj Ahmed and Talha Ansari. Retailo is the fastest-growing B2B startup in MENAP, digitizing retail supply chains in the region. It is currently the largest B2B platform for shop owners. As a B2B business app, Retailo is helping retailers adopt an app-based way of acquiring goods for their retail outlets. Retailo headquarters are located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and the company has a huge foothold in both Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

Muhammad Talha Ansari is a Pakistani entrepreneur, venture development manager, and business analyst. He was a part of Foodpanda and Careem in different capacities before co-founding Retailo Technologies, a digital B2B platform, in July 2020.^[31][32]

After completing his BBA from IBA Karachi in 2012,^[33] Talha joined Foodpanda, a venture by Team Rocket. As a BI analyst, he gathered insights that were then relayed to the Foodpanda senior management headquartered in Berlin. During this time, his primary focus was on generating insights on online traffic, conversion rates, and the viability of both online and offline marketing campaigns. He was then promoted to a Venture Development Manager at Foodpanda.

In August 2014, Talha became Foodpanda's youngest CEO^[34] and managing director. In his two-and-a-half-year tenure as the CEO, Talha turned the EBIDTA positive and tripled the company's yearly sales.^[35]

In 2016, Talha joined Careem Pakistan as Director Operations.^[36] He built and led the team responsible for the growth of the 0.3 million drivers (known at Careem as captains) across 11 major cities of Pakistan. This team developed worked to acquire effective supply and manage the rapid demand in growth. It also worked on a program to attract and register female drivers. He also worked on designing a comprehensive driver (captain) background check policy by partnering up with respective law enforcement agencies to implement it.

In May 2018, Talha relocated to Dubai as the Senior Director of Operations of the UAE branch of Careem.

In July 2020, Talha co-founded Retailo Technologies with his partners Wahaj Ahmed and Muhammad Nowkhaiz, both of whom were also fellow Careem alums.^[37][38][39] Retailo is the "fastest-growing" B2B startup in MENAP,^[40][41] digitizing retail supply chains in the region.

Wahaj Ahmed
وہاج احمد
Nationality	Pakistani
Occupation	Entrepreneur
Organization	Retailo

Wahaj Ahmed is a Pakistani growth hacker, marketing manager, ex-associate at McKinsey, and an entrepreneur. In July 2020, Wahaj launched an app-based B2B startup called Retailo with his fellow Careem alums, Talha Ansari and Muhammad Nowkhaiz.^[2]

Wahaj scored straight A’s in his Cambridge O’ Level examinations. However, when he progressed onto his A-Levels, he felt more interested in playing video games and preferred it over his studies, resulting in him passing with only mediocre grades. In fact, he claims he saw gaming as a “retreat”.^[3]

Such was his love for video games that he applied to LUMS in 2010 solely because he heard of a computer lab at the institute that housed an Xbox available to students 24/7. It was here at LUMS where he reacquainted himself with his love for knowledge and decided to pursue a bi-major in Accounting as well as Finance with a minor in Computer Science.^[4] It was during one of these many gaming sessions that he met Muhammad Nowkhaiz, one of his fellow co-founders at Retailo in 2013.^[3]

Hailing from a middle-class section of the Pakistani population, Wahaj and his family were not very financially strong. In fact, his father had to sell some of their property to finance his education. Wahaj graduated with a 2.7 GPA and felt disappointed in himself for not being able to perform better.

Wahaj wanted to shun the stereotype that students of LUMS liked to hop from job to job trying to figure where their strengths lay. However, he fell down the same rabbit hole and hopped from company to company trying to figure out where he fit best. He did initially venture into content writing but felt he was a more operations-oriented individual and wanted something a little livelier. However, Wahaj says he owes a lot of what he learned about money markets, capital markets, and how companies are valued from his days at different content writing agencies.^[3]

When Wahaj finally wedged his way into a Rocket Internet ride-sharing startup called TRIBDA, he promised himself he was going to stick in this position in the company. As luck would have it, TRIBDA closed its worldwide operations only six months after it first launched.

Wahaj then moved onto Daraz, another booming Rocket Internet startup in November 2014 as an online marketing manager. It was here that he first familiarized himself with the scope and potential of digital products and online marketing in the region. In his almost two years at Daraz, Wahaj was responsible for overseeing GDN and SEM-based campaigns in all Jumia (Asian) countries.

Wahaj interviewed for Careem Pakistan while he was still at Daraz. His hiring manager, Junaid Iqbal asked to him join Careem the very next day, and attend a marketing summit in Dubai. Since he wanted to leave the company on a good note, his manager facilitated his farewell at Daraz, and Wahaj moved on to Careem as a marketing manager in May 2016.^[5]

Initially, his job at Careem was to bring more customers onto the platform. However, he soon realized that it was not the customers that were missing on the Careem app, but rather the captains (company term for drivers). He requested Junaid to let him work on captain acquisition instead and started working on developing the first captain funnels at Careem. Under his insightful leadership, Careem employed the SMS and WhatsApp-based acquisition engines to hire captains and reduced the average onboarding time from five days to two days. As a result of this, his job title at Careem was changed to that of a “Growth Hacker”.

Wahaj describes his role at Careem as that of a “fixer” as he “oscillated” from the cities of Islamabad, Lahore, and Karachi handling different crises as they came.^[3]

A general manager in the Karachi branch of Careem left the company in September 2016, leaving the position vacant. The job was offered to Wahaj and while he was initially reluctant to accept an upper-management role at the age of only 25, his manager reassured him that he was a great fit for the role. On the same day that Wahaj was promoted to the position of General Manager at Careem^[6], he received his fellowship acceptance at McKinsey.^[4]

He went to his manager at Careem, Mudassir Sheikha for some much-needed guidance. Sheikha talked to his friend Salman Ahmed, who at the time was the managing director of McKinsey to help Wahaj out. Salman offered a one-year deferment of Wahaj’s fellowship at McKinsey and Wahaj gladly accepted as this meant that he would be able to take up the position of GM at Careem Pakistan.

When Wahaj finally joined McKinsey in July 2017^[7], he loved the rigorous training that the organization provided, and aimed to become a partner at the company.

Joining McKinsey gave Wahaj a bird’s eye view of the industries in the region as well as where there were opportunities for innovation and growth. It was here that he decided that he wanted to work to transform the way retailers order commodities for their shops. The initial MVP was the beta version of an app that only cost Rs. 30,000 (around USD 185). He was given the idea to launch this app-based way of ordering grocery items for small retail outlets in Saudi Arabia instead of Pakistan as the former was more technologically adept and could better appreciate the product. However, because of the very successful soft launch in Pakistan, Wahaj also decided to launch Retailo in Pakistan as well. He then convinced his friends Talha Ansari and Muhammad Nowkhaiz to come to join him in this exciting venture.^[8]

In October 2020, the firm received $2.3 million in a pre-seed fundraising round.^[7] Retailo's overall investment has now hit $9 million, just nine months after it began operations.^[9] It is supported by Shorooq Partners, which spearheaded both rounds of funding, as well as Abercross Holdings in the United Kingdom, AgFunder in Silicon Valley, and Arzan Venture Capital in the Middle East.^[7]

The 2020 PFF National Challenge Cup was the 29th edition of domestic cup competition in Pakistan. 28 teams participated in the competition, commencing from 30 November and concluding on 20 December 2020. The competition was held in Lahore, with Punjab Stadium and Fame FC Ground hosting all the matches.^[1]

The 28 teams participating in the tournament are as follows:^[1][2]
