For decades, Pakistan has been subjected to a sustained narrative assault by India, carefully constructed, persistently amplified, and globally circulated. What we are witnessing now is not a sudden transformation, but a long-overdue correction. As the fog begins to lift, the world is starting to see Pakistan beyond the distortions: a state that has consistently signaled restraint, a society that seeks stability, and a nation that wants nothing more than to live in peace within a difficult neighborhood.
What I find perhaps most striking is not just the external shift in perception, but the internal one. Pakistanis themselves are beginning to rediscover their own country, beyond imposed narratives, beyond strategic caricatures. And in that rediscovery lies something deeper: a quiet, steady reclaiming of identity which is less about reacting to others, and more about understanding ourselves on our own terms.

Two nuclear powers, one river system, zero functioning treaty. The Indus Waters Treaty survived two wars - that is not luck, that is architecture. India’s 2025 suspension was political theatre. The infrastructure to stop the water does not exist, but disrupting the timing of flows does, and for Pakistani agriculture in a dry season, timing is everything. The irony is that both nations are downstream of climate change, and weaponising water today means fighting over less water tomorrow. This is where Pakistan’s diplomatic posture must be sharpest, not grievance, not victimhood, but strategic patience and a standing offer to negotiate. Water is not a concession. It is a commons. The World Bank holds mediation authority and that door remains open. Pakistan should walk through it, loudly and on the record, because restoring the IWT is not sentiment, it is rational statecraft. Geography always outlasts grievance.
🚨BREAKING: 75 MPs now back my Parliamentary motion for widespread sanctions on Israel.
As well as genocide in Gaza and war crimes in Lebanon, Israel is deepening its occupation of the West Bank.
There's just a week left to back this sanctions call. Ask your MP to do so below.
He walked the talk!
Pakistan’s indefatigable efforts in the form of deft diplomacy have left the World bewildered, foes flabbergasted and friends grateful.
Landmark judgement by Islamabad High Court. Assets acquired post matrimony are to be divided equitably and not based on who earned them. Men can no longer spend twenty years with a woman supporting their career and then ditch her when rich and marry wife # 2 without consequences
The UX around nikahnama and the actual nikah ceremony is problematic. There is too much pressure on the bride to just say yes and sign. Nikahnama should have all clauses standardized. All should be accepted. And lawyers of each side should see and approve before nikah so that the girl knows what she is signing after getting qualified advice.
Trump talking about finding solution to the Kashmir issue is a clear setback for India’s long-standing position.
For decades, India has tried to frame Kashmir as an internal matter, refusing any third-party involvement.
Trump's willingness to engage, even rhetorically, signals Kashmir dispute as an unresolved, global issue — not just a domestic Indian affair.
This is a major embarrassment for India at diplomatic front, after losing its face at the military level against a much smaller country like Pakistan.
West was propping up India to counter China. As India takes its bloody nose back home, West will be looking at the bets it placed on a lame horse.
The easiest thing to do is to lob projectiles at civilian populations. That is what India did last night.
The hardest thing to do is to inflict serious damage on a conventionally larger military. That is what Pakistan appears to have done last night.
Seeing the privatisation of primary education in Punjab, I remembered Winston Churchill's response to budget cut during WWII.
Along with budget cut in every department, he was asked to cut the budget for Art and Education; and he said 'That is what we are fighting for'.
For me giving away 13,000 schools to private sector is the failure of Punjab province.
Basic free primary education is the responsibility of a state and it seems the state is not interested in taking this responsibility.
