Early life

Somasegar, the vice president of Microsoft's Software Development Division, wrote about her in his blog. On 2 August 2005, Arfa was presented the Fatimah Jinnah Gold Medal in the field of Science and Technology by the prime minister of Pakistan Shaukat Aziz at the 113th anniversary of Fatima Jinnah's birth.[9] She also received the Salaam Pakistan Youth Award in August 2005 from the president of Pakistan.Randhawa received the President's Award for Pride of Performance in 2005, a civil award usually granted to people who have shown excellence in their respective fields over a long period of time; she is the youngest recipient of this award. She was made brand ambassador for Pakistan Telecommunication Company's 3G Wireless Broadband service, "EVO", in January 2010.
Recognition
Upon her return from the US, Randhawa became an icon in Pakistan.[13] She was interviewed by various channels, invited to several international conferences and summits, and received awards from the president and prime minister of Pakistan.[14] In 2006, Microsoft invited her to be the keynote speaker at the Tech-Ed developers conference held in Barcelona.[11]
Representation at international forums
Randhawa represented Pakistan on various international forums and was invited by the Pakistan Information Technology Professionals Forum for a two-week stay in Dubai, where a dinner reception was hosted in her honour; Dubai dignitaries, including the Ambassador of Pakistan, attended. She was presented with various awards and gifts, including a laptop.[15] In November 2006, Randhawa attended the Tech-Ed Developers conference themed Get Ahead of The Game held in after receiving an invitation from Microsoft.[11] She was the only Pakistani among over 5000 developers in that conference.
Death
In 2011, Randhawa was studying at the Lahore Grammar School Paragon Campus in her second year of A-levels. On 22 December 2011, she had a cardiac arrest after an epileptic seizure that damaged her brain and was admitted to Lahore's Combined Military Hospital (CMH) in critical condition.[6]
On 9 January 2012, Bill Gates, chairman of Microsoft, contacted Randhawa's parents and directed her doctors to adopt "every kind of measure" for her treatment. Gates set up a special panel of international doctors who remained in contact with her local doctors through teleconference. The panel assisted in diagnosing and treating her illness.[17] Local doctors dismissed the option of moving Randhawa to another hospital due to her being on a ventilator and in critical condition. Members of her family have lauded Bill Gates for offering to bear her treatment expenses.[18]
Randhawa began to improve on 13 January 2012, and some areas of her brain began to show indications of healing. Microsoft had discussed flying her to the United States for treatment, according to her father, Amjad Abdul Karim Randhawa.
Randhawa died at a hospital in Lahore on 14 January 2012, aged 16. Her funeral, which was held on the following day, was attended by the Chief Minister of Punjab, Shahbaz Sharif. She was buried in her ancestral village Chak No. 4JB Ram Diwali, on Faisalabad-Sargodha Road Faisalabad.

عرفہ کریم کی سوچ اس کے کام اور اس کی نیت پر بالکل بھی کوئی شک نہیں یہ بچی بہت جلدی ہی اس دنیا سے چلی گئی اللہ اس کے درجات بلند کرے آمین لیکن یہ ہمارے ملک کا المیہ ہے پچھلے کچھ عرصے میں ایک اور چھوٹی عمر کے لڑکے نے عرفہ سے بھی کم عمر میں مائیکروسافٹ سرٹیفائیڈ کا کورس مکمل کیا ہے لیکن ہمیں اس کا کچھ پتہ نہیں کیونکہ ہمیں دکھانا اور بتانا حکومت یا کسی بھی چینل نے مناسب ہی نہیں سمجھا!! اس بچی یعنی عرفہ کریم کا بھی اپ کو یا مجھے کبھی پتہ نہ چلتا اگر اس کے پس پشت فوج نہ ہوتی اور اس کے بابا کرنل نہ ہوتے ثابت یہی ہوا کہ اس ملک میں اہمیت اسی کو دی جاتی ہے جس کے پس پشت لوگ بھی مضبوط ہوتے ہیں یا پھر صاف لفظوں میں فوج کا ہاتھ ہوتا
