Envious Men Commit Violence on September 4, 2024I am unaware of how influential this kind of research can be amid rising rates of domestic violence and divorce, but perhaps some facts are as revealing as a lady with disastrous make-up getting exposed in the middle of the party, and that too in broad daylight. Unfortunately, these unfortunate facts remain obscure until they […]
Capacity Building of Women with Disabilities on April 4, 2024Imagine a woman spending a whole day on crutches or a wheelchair only to find out her existence as the most redundant one by evening each day.

Indo-Pak Media: A Redundant Concept on October 2, 2023The contemporary Western media is smart! It practices the prowess of behavioural sciences across its production fleet.

Halal Opium and Haram Women Education on December 26, 2022They were clueless about what to do in the post-Soviet War era.

Legacy of Subcontinent Music: Lost to the Wheel of Time on December 19, 2022The language of music is universal and so are the enchanting beats that echo through the corridors of the heart.
