With the passage of time history becomes more re-vealing as previous records lose prohibition of time limitation for public exposure. American classified cuments after their declassification have revealed that Liaquat Ali Khan refused to offer Pakistan as a base for the Anglo-American operations for toppling the government of Prime Minister Dr Mossadegh who was not […]

Greatest tragedy that has hit us hard can be at best be described by Professor KK Aziz’s as murder of our history. We lost no time in engineering our history by charlatans who grabbed straight and disfigured Jinnah Sahib’s vision to fall into the hands of usurpers who distorted and disgorged it. He refused to […]

It is unbelievable to know that two countries with relations deeper than the seven seas and higher than the Mount Everest could get entangled in logger heads. Ever since Imran khan got selected into power, his foreign minister Shah Mahmud Qureshi has not been successful to muster the support of OIC countries to corner India […]

In what is being described a fantastic track record of exceptional ‘hip-beating performance’ in last two years, when his most wealthy minister Azam Swati had to resign from his cabinet post in the initial days of IK government to allow public accountability to take a natural course following a controversy over transfer of IG police […]

Ever since the change in governments both in India and Pakistan relations between the two countries have remained dicey although there has been some glimmer of hope some times.

Universally acknowledged as a bridge between East and West, Benazir Bhutto was […]

Writing in the well-read World Healthcare Journal, my review of the pandemic world over and especially Pakistan drew a bleak picture. By the end of May, the total number of coronavirus cases in Pakistan had almost bypassed 70,000 with nearly 2500 casualties. As I lamented, the PTI government was trying to keep to itself the […]

Indeed. When sorrows come visiting us, they don’t come in singles but in battalions. That’s the way phrase goes and perhaps one finds it quite appropriate to describe the predicaments that Pakistan has always been facing. A leadership muddled by indecisiveness, has not been able to come up with a well thought out policy to […]

Thank God, Science and Technology Minister Fawad Choudhry has had his way with the controversial Ruet-I- Hilal muftis and maulvis. He got the proverbial Seven Blind Men at last see the Moon to bury for once the usual controversy over the sighting of the Eid Moon. It made us all proud to celebrate Eid on […]
