Dear @jamkhanshoro please ensure the release of water in #AkramWah so that towns like #TandoBago #Pangrio #Khoski could be provided with drinking water. The severe water crises have hit these areas for past three days due to no water in the canal 🙏🙏

I am deeply grieved to learn of the passing of Mir George #AliMuradKhanTalpur II, the last ruler of the former princely State of #KhairpurMirs which is now one of the largest districts in #Sindh.
Ascending to gaddi of #Khairpur in 1947, when he was only 14 years of age, #MirAliMurad peacefully and with great dignity over saw the transition between a royal legacy and the modern history of #Sindh and #Pakistan. He signed the instrument of accession and finally state merger with #Pakistan in 1955. Educated at #AitchisonCollege and the #UniversityofCambridge, Mir Ali Murad was humble, gentle, extremely private but with an unwavering sense of public duty, and deep commitment to the welfare of the former state citizens.
Under his stewardship, #KhairpurMirs earned recognition as a progressive princely state, championing free education, universal healthcare, social welfare programs, agricultural development, and industrial modernization, laying foundations that improved the lives of countless citizens.
The #Talpur legacy is a powerful one and lives in historical memory of the people of #Khairpur. Schools, canals, shifakhanas and our unique architectural and natural heritage, the #KotDiji Fort, #FaizMahal, #SheeshMahal and #WhitePalace and #Mehrano bear witness to the their timeless contributions. The last ruler’s passing formally closes a chapter in the history of Khairpur, and even #Sindh and #Pakistan. My sincere condolences to Prince #MehdiRazaTalpur, his family and to the people of #KotDiji who love and revere the #Talpur family

Imagine a 17-year-old #student sitting in his room, surrounded by books and science experiments. He is an intermediate student, interested in chemistry and curious about how things work.
Now imagine that the same young person is accused of trying to poison his own father.
This is the disturbing question raised by the arrest of a 17-year-old student in #Bahawalpur. According to the @NCCIAOFFICIAL he allegedly tried to poison his father after a family dispute. @AliSajjadceo @GovtofPakistan

Shahzada Irfan sb, a thorough gentleman, is no more. I still find it difficult to believe.
He shaped my journalism from the day I entered TNS in 2003. My first award, fellowship, international conference & international byline, his guidance was behind them all.
RIP Shahzada sahib

Right now, the issue of new provinces is an “in” issue for the media. My newspaper editor, Ahsan Raza, tells me that we are receiving almost 10 to 15 articles every day on the subject. Most of them, unfortunately, repeat the same arguments.
