The Unusual Fall by Asma Hamza

Opinion

Asma HamzaThe third consecutive fall in this vacation house in Moscow wasn't much different.High on the hog, the only void Vselovod had in his preferential tiresome life was affection.Loneliness had always been seated before him, welcoming him as he'd mount his bogey; in each of his life's rendezvous.His billionaire father divorced his mother and left with the paramour when he was eleven.His mother, a definite wife-material, stayed much strong throughout.However, Vsevolod had witnessed his mother carrying a crimson, museum-desired lantern in the darkest hours of many sleepless nights.He'd peep through a self-made hole in the door as his mom Nakita, would creep through the vintage furnished hall with the spooky lantern and slowly disappear near the staircase that led to the asphalt rooftop...

The Concept of Protocol in Pakistan | Chaudhry Muhammad Latif

Opinion

By Chaudhry Muhammad Latif The concept of protocol in Pakistan is a legacy of colonial British rule, who had devised a system of divide and rule for their colonies. They created tiers of jagirdar, zaildar, numberdar and chaukidar. In states there were Mahrajas, Ameers, Nawabs, Sardars, and Chiefs of tribes. Theoretically there were two systems of governance in the world, in addition to a separate colonial rule. One system is followed by the British and their previous colonies. The other system is practiced by the United States, China, Russia, South Korea etc. The British system cherished status-minded system with special prestigious epithets and designations like Prime Minister, Ministers, Chiefs, Generals, Commissioners, Deputy Commissioners and Ambassadors etc. The second syste...

Contribution of Kashmir To Arabic Literature, Dr. Khawja Zahid Aziz

Opinion

Dr. Khawja Zahid Aziz Introduction The state of Jammu and Kashmir looks like a crown on the head of Sub-continent. It has a rich history spread over a period of more than five thousand years preserved in written form. It was ruled under Hindus, Buddhists, Shahmeri sultans, Mughal emperors, Afghan, Sikh and Dogra rulers at least five thousand years. Its geographical location made this territory hard to conquer. High mountain passes, the unbeatable defense of Kashmir, forced the Arab chieftains and Mahmood Ghaznavi to return empty handed. The people of Kashmir remained unique in every field of life. Different religions like Hinduism, Budhism and Sikhism remained four thousand years in Kashmir. Kashmir was a great Buddhist learning centre during the reign of great Ashoka. During...

BOOKS-MY LIFE/ Maheem Mughal

Opinion

Maheem Mughal, London I noticed that a major portion of my money is invested in books, because honestly books can be so expensive. But I have never regretted it because not only it is a path of self-improvement for me, books are also my only possession that I can pass down to my next generation. I hope that when I'm gone, all of the books will be appreciated and benefit people who love books as much as I do. I try to have a book with me everywhere. I put a book in my handbag to be read when I'm outside. I have a book beside my bed to be read before sleeping. I have PDF books to be read when it is not convenient to hold a hardcopy book. Whereas all hardcore books in volumes like Tafsir As-Sa'di, requires suitable time and place coupled with extra focus and dedication. Amazingly...

“RECOLLECTIONS OF MY LIFE: MEMOIRES OF EIGHT DECADES ” By Tariq Masud

Opinion, Writers

Reviewer Arif Kamal In my glance through the publication, I am refreshed on outstanding feature of the memoires as an invaluable addition to the oral history of our time. This is particularly true on three counts: tests and trials of migration and social transformations that come in the way. Second, the profile of Azad Kashmir as a distinct region and the evolution of its public service and governance process over seven decades or so. The publication provides a 'one-window' access to multiple dimensions of the process from the vantage point of a life-time accomplished public servant. Third, the memoirs recap though indirectly, the psychological behaviour patterns in a transforming society and profiles of political elite in the past seven decades or so. The Recollections echo the a...
