By Wasim Jamal Across Pakistan, social security institutions serve as a vital pillar of protection for the working class. Since the country’s inception, they have carried forward their mandate despite persistent financial and administrative constraints. In their early years, services were confined to a handful of major cities and largely limited to workers in the textile sector. Over time, however, these institutions have evolved into expansive, structured organizations, extending their reach across provinces and industries. Following the dissolution of the One Unit system, the Sindh Employees Social Security Institution formally began its independent operations in 1971. Today, SESSI manages an…

By Alia Zarar Khan The scenes outside the U.S. Consulate in recent days have been both troubling and dispiriting. At a moment when the world is already weighed down by violence and deepening geopolitical strain, the targeting of a diplomatic mission on Pakistani soil reflects neither moral courage nor political maturity. It is, instead, an act of recklessness that risks compounding crisis with self-inflicted harm. Public anger, wherever it arises, does not exist in a vacuum. Many citizens feel anguish at unfolding global events and a sense of helplessness in the face of distant atrocities. That emotion is real. It…

As Washington and Tel Aviv intensified their joint military pressure on Tehran, the world’s gaze turned instinctively towards Iran’s most powerful partners. Questions abounded: why had Russia and China, both deeply invested in the region, confined themselves largely to verbal condemnations rather than decisive action? On the surface, the answers seemed simple. Moscow and Beijing had protested, but they had stopped short of any tangible military or coercive engagement. Yet beneath this apparent inaction lay a complex calculus, one shaped not merely by geopolitical loyalty but by a careful assessment of risk, capability, and long-term strategy. Moscow’s response was swift…

By Dr. Zawwar Hussain Pakistan’s launch of Operation Ghazab lil Haq is far more than a mere military maneuver. It is a statement of sovereign resolve, a reaffirmation that national integrity, territorial security, and internal stability are not negotiable commodities in a world shaped by the shifting whims of global power. When a nation rises to defend its people and its borders, it does more than mobilize troops; it mobilizes conscience, conviction, and collective will. In such defining moments, the character of a nation is tested. Does it fracture under pressure, or does it harden, like tempered steel, through unity…

Launched as part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative, CPEC has become a cornerstone of Pakistan’s economic planning, with the potential to transform the nation’s infrastructure, energy sector, and regional connectivity. The corridor, stretching across the country, is far more than a series of highways, railways, and power plants. It represents a framework for deepened cooperation between China and Pakistan, bringing together economic, trade, industrial,…
