کٹھ پتلی کی کیا اوقات، نشانہ سیلیکٹرز پہ رکھیں اور جب تک وہ گھٹنے نہ ٹیک دیں تب تک سر پہ سوار رہیں۔

راستہ کوئی بھی ہو بس جب تک نکا اور نکے کا ابّا دست و گریباں ہو کے اس تماشے کا پول نہیں کھول دیتے تب تک حوصلہ رکھیں۔

Op-Ed: "Such innovations do not have a place in the civilised world. Intelligence agencies are required to monitor and report sensitive matters to executive officers to aid their decision-making in public interest. Their role or signatures are never revea­led in documents. The responsibility squarely lies upon the executive officers who take the decisi­o­­ns in their discretion after considering all the facts and material."

Op-Ed: "IIT Delhi, ranked at 118, the top Indian university in the rankings. It has an estimated operational budget of $100-150 million. QAU, the top ranked Pakistani university, has a budget estimated around $15m. Cornell University spends some $1 billion per year on research. Top Chinese universities spend multiples of that. IIT salaries for faculty, for comparable levels, are around $25,000 per year to $6,500 for QAU!"

Pakistan is a civilisational state. It is a part of a chain of civilisations that emerged along the Indus, the country’s largest river. This means that Pakistan is now ‘reclaiming’ these civilisations cut across 5,000 years. Indians can’t seem to come to terms with this.

Congratulations to Pakistan on securing permanent membership in the International Olive Council (IOC)!

Olive orchard workers often endure demanding physical labour, fast-paced pruning and harvesting and frequently work in extreme weather. ILO welcomes Pakistan’s commitment to advancing decent work across this important sector.

It is regrettable that the 9th Review the UN Global Counter Terrorism Strategy (GCTS) failed to address the existing gaps in the strategy and to incorporate the concerns of the OIC, whose members are among the countries most adversely affected by terrorism.

Pakistan and the OIC showed utmost flexibility, but consensus eluded us. After three years, we have zero value addition to GCTS. That’s unfortunate.

This stalemate could be termed a failure but it is also a wake-up call. We believe that this global challenge demands that we come together and act in concert. We will work with all member states in this regard.

Someone has to say it.

The amount of racism directed at World Cup players - including in the England squad - on this platform is out of control.

We cannot allow a vile vocal minority to divide our nation. A lot of this content is illegal and Ofcom should be investigating.

Solidarity with every player targeted. We are united.

Ghalibaf was nearly killed in both the 12-day war in June 2025 and again in this year’s conflict, when Israel targeted a secret meeting of senior government officials in a bunker under a mountain, according to three senior Iranian officials and public comments by officials. In both incidents, Mr. Ghalibaf was rescued from under the rubble, the officials said. https://t.co/ZFaPyzNDUC

The roof collapse at a tuition center in Kahna is a heartbreaking tragedy. The loss of 14 innocent lives is an immeasurable sorrow, and my heart goes out to the grieving families. As a mother, I deeply feel their pain and anguish. Words are simply not enough to express the magnitude of this loss. May Allah grant the departed the highest ranks in Jannah and bless their loved ones with patience and strength.
While 20 children were rescued safely, I want to make it absolutely clear that there will be no leniency for those responsible for this tragic act of negligence. Every individual found accountable will face the full force of the law. We owe it to the victims and their families to ensure that justice is served.

Why Obama sent cash to Iran?

Because the U.S. owed Iran money from a decades-old arms deal: Iran had paid before 1979 but the weapons were never delivered. And because U.S. sanctions blocked bank transfers, the money had to be paid in cash.

Spoke to @MarioNawfal today briefly on the weaponization of waterways, the Iran US peace process, the implications for gulf countries & Israel’s actions.

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

🚨🇮🇱🇵🇸 Is Israel's aggressive foreign policy making it impossible for them to build reliable partnerships in South Asia and the Gulf?

Former Pakistani Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari notes that Pakistan has strictly refused to recognize Israel since its founding, comparing its systemic actions against Palestinians to historical apartheid.

Bilawal argued Israel's conduct remains a massive stumbling block not just for Islamabad, but for nations all across the Middle East looking for long-term regional stability.

"It's not even a question of good or bad relations; we don't have relations with the Israeli government."

The world understood the danger when the Strait of Hormuz was weaponised. It must now understand the danger when India seeks to weaponise the Indus.
Waterways cannot become instruments of coercion.

At the IWT Intl Conference in Islamabad ‘The descent of India into a rogue state is multi dimensional. Claiming to hold in abeyance the robust, enduring, survivor of two wars- Indus Water Treaty- shows that it no more deserves to be sitting in UN General assembly.
