The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Multan is also situated in the area.

There are several private schools and colleges which follow foreign curricula like the British GCE Ordinary Level/Advanced level and the IB within the city.

Gulgasht Colony used to be a residential area, which quickly became commercial and a popular modern business centre of the city after old Chowk Bazar and Cantt shopping areas.

This modern locality is a commercial hub with many restaurants, commercial banks, hospitals, health clinics, trade agencies, fashion boutiques, shopping malls, super markets, department stores, beauty saloons and décor stores.

However, in the evening two men used to come from city to sell ice on their carts.
