the bulb is common nargis.its very common at Risalpur cant.remove all other things you have planted there.do hoe deeply other wise you will damage the bulbs.

Farhan, It will be helpful if you know the history your plant beds. What was grown earlier here?

Pic no 1: Certainly not strawberry. Why don't you buy strawberry runners instead of seeds?
Pic 3: Something from the cucumber family including a melon. I am recognizing from the shape of cotyledons-the very first two leaves which have a different shape than the rest. Passion flower's leaves are not hairy nor is the stem.
Pict 4: Daffodils
Picture 5: Eggplant- most likely not. Wait for few more leaves to emerge. Typical egg plant leaves are not compound. Is it hairy leaves?
Picture 7: Looks a Haar-singhaar seedling (Nyctanthes arbortristytis). Any such tree growing nearby? If it is a vine, then it is not.

May be wait for a two or more weeks and see what they are.

Regards,
Farooq
