The birth anniversary of the leader of the people, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, was celebrated on January 5. The purpose of celebrating the birthday is to discuss the life of that personality. Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon in the Sindh Assembly paid tribute to the founder of the PPP, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. In particular, getting the Constitution of Pakistan 1973 unanimously passed , that was his great achievement. 

In my point of view,that it is also unfortunate that the politicians who made 26 amendments to the same constitution failed to bring such amendments that would have improved governance. The primary problem in the current situation in Pakistan is political instability, which is due to politicians working at different times, instead of working on real issues, keeping their own interests in mind. Political parties have not transformed themselves into institutions. Political workers do not have the status that a political party should have. All political parties should think about how democracy will be strengthened in the country. Favoring special families will not grow democracy in the country. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's sacrifice will only pay off when political parties respect political workers.

Ms. Shazia Marri has taken the responsibility of threatening to separate from the government on several decisions of the federal government, but even a junior student of politics knows who formed the current government alliance and under what conditions. If any serious threat comes from the PML-N, it can certainly be regarding the office of the President, but the meetings between the Prime Minister and the President indicate that everything is good between them, but on the political front, verbal barrages are made only to tell the public that we are not part of the decisions, but it does not find any acceptance among the public. And public comments on social media indicate that the public is amused by the fight or rhetoric of politicians, and not worried.

In the Sindh Assembly, the MQM made a strong effort to protest and took the position that children of Karachi are being deliberately failed in large numbers in the intermediate exams. The MQM's protest is in its place, but the MQM's criminal silence on what has happened and is happening in Karachi demands an answer.

For the past few days, Karachi city has also been gripped by a severe cold wave, while the changing weather in Balochistan will further increase the cold. At the same time, people are seen in many open areas who do not have arrangements to protect themselves from the cold. All this indicates an increase in poverty. Federal government ministers are repeatedly making statements that poverty and inflation have decreased. But according to reports from international organizations, the number of poor people in Pakistan has increased. In such a situation, the claims of federal ministers seem hollow. The federal government controls energy prices and they have continuously increased. Electricity prices are out of reach of the people, while transport has become very expensive due to the increase in fuel charges. Its effects have also been felt on food items. Other essentials of life are not within the reach of the common man because there is unemployment and wages are not in line with the needs. In such a situation, public welfare projects should be started, but in Karachi city, a large number of people are seen outside the langarkhanas.

On January 5, solidarity was expressed with the people of occupied Kashmir across the country and messages were issued to commemorate the adoption of the plebiscite resolution by the United Nations Security Council in 1949. The journey of the eighth decade continues but this UN resolution has not been implemented. The sacrifices of the Kashmiris have also affected the whole world but India refused to acknowledge the world public opinion, but the people of Kashmir are waiting for the day when they will have to decide on their own merit that their future is linked to Pakistan. Pakistan is an advocate of the Kashmir cause in international forums and every Pakistani is advocating this. There are thousands of problems within Pakistan, the economy is suffering due to lack of political stability, it is facing movements like terrorism, extremism and separatism, but every government and people of Pakistan have a point of view on the Kashmir issue. Pakistan is helping the Kashmiris with every step, word, deed and is committed to providing political, legal and moral support.

The 17th death anniversary of former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Ms. Benazir Bhutto, was observed at Garhi Khuda Bakhsh, where a large gathering was held and President Asif Ali Zardari also attended. Bilawal Bhutto Zardari criticized the PML-N government during his visit to Sukkur and Larkana, calling the internet shutdown especially a huge loss for the youth. The attitude of the PPP seems to be changing for the past few days. The results of the American elections have started to have a direct impact on Pakistani politics. The tweets of Richard Grenell, the designated advisor to US President-elect Donald Trump, have created a stir. Due to the same effect, PPP leaders are increasing their criticism of the PML-N, while also trying to attract the youth to their side.

Senator Shireen Rehman has been silent since Richard Grenell gave a strong response to her on the social networking site X Twitter. Almost no PPP leader has been able to respond to her.

It seems that before January 20, there may be a rapid change in the politics of Pakistan or the current government alliance may be in danger. After the humanitarian problem in Parachinar, a series of nationwide sit-ins have started, but in Karachi, especially at several important places, sit-ins have been held. When the Chief Minister of Sindh expressed his anger over this, the leaders of the sit-ins, especially Maulana Hassan Zafar, severely criticized the Chief Minister of Sindh and mentioned the incidents of burning and siege from Karachi to Kashmore on the occasion of the martyrdom of Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto on December 27, 2007. While Maulana Hassan convinced the Chief Minister of Sindh that during the tenure of your government, the people of Karachi are being crushed by the tanker mafia. Thus, his response went viral on social media. An MQM delegation met the sit-in participants to express solidarity with them. The sit-in participants maintain that this is not a sit-in of a religious party but rather an expression of solidarity with the oppressed people of Parachinar. The Sindh government is using force to end the sit-in.

Jamaat-e-Islami also held a rally in support of the oppressed people of Gaza, but Jamaat-e-Islami chief Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman criticized Imran Khan in his speech. He held a rally for the people of Palestine, but he suggested Imran Khan for criticism. Surprisingly, Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman was earlier close to the PTI, but suddenly he opposed Imran Khan, as if he was close to the current government's point of view.

Karachi city is facing shortage of natural gas supply, especially along with water and electricity problems. Businessmen do not rely on Sui Gas Department SSGC, but gas cylinders are used in restaurants. Now domestic consumers are also very much affected.

Business activities in Karachi city have already come to a standstill, on top of this, water, electricity, gas and transport problems have further caused difficulties for the people. There is a lot of criticism about the Red Line project of Sindh province, the completion of which is in a difficult situation. There is a constant disruption in traffic on University Road. The Sindh government is claiming that this project will reach its completion soon, but there are no signs of it yet.

Sindh Governor Kamran Tesori has announced that for the first time in the country's history, a Governors' Conference will be held. The Sindh Governor House will host it and the expected date is January 7.

The position of the governor in the parliamentary system is constitutional. While the PPP Sindh government further reduced the powers of the governor. The governor used to be active in higher education institutions and universities, but that role has now ended. The Punjab governor has also criticized the appointments of vice chancellors by the Punjab Chief Minister, while in KPK there is a cold war between the governor and the Chief Minister. It is a good move to discuss the role of the governor in the provinces through this conference.

The fourth annual Masooma Sindh Conference was held at the Ibrahim Joyo Auditorium adjacent to the Liaquat National Library, in which the efforts to remove obstacles to the construction of the shrine of Masooma Sindh Hazrat Bibi Khadija Maham bint Imam Musa Kazim (AS) were appreciated and mischievous elements were condemned.

The Sindh government has allocated funds for the construction of the shrine of Hazrat Bibi Masooma Sindh. The Sindh Auqaf Department is working on it, but some miscreants are stopping the construction work.

Director General of Culture Munawar Ali Mahesar stressed the importance of preserving the heritage of Sindh in every possible way, and reiterated efforts to complete the construction of the shrine at the earliest. It is surprising that Sindh, which is the land of Sufism and saints, has many shrines, but obstacles are being created in the construction of the shrine of an Imamzadeh.

President Asif Ali Zardari has called investment in Sindh by Chinese investors  and in this regard he is constantly trying to get Chinese investors to invest in Sindh. The Thar Coal Project is a successful project that is continuously generating electricity. While Chinese companies are also working on the Atomic Energy Project. Work is being done to create an industrial zone on the outskirts of Karachi. While the city of Karachi itself has its own projects waiting for foreign investment. But it is surprising that the government of Pakistan and the President are not presenting these projects to domestic investors. Pakistani businessmen and overseas Pakistanis can also play a role in improving the economy, but they have to be provided with a better environment so that they can invest with confidence.

People's Party celebrated its 57th foundation day with enthusiasm across Sindh, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari's speech was broadcast online in many districts. People's Party was established in a meeting held at the house of Dr. Mubasher Hassan in Lahore and Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was elected First Chairman. The People's Party held rallies in Sindh on the foundation day, but the party power in Punjab is no longer the same, although the governorship of Punjab was given to the PPP in the current government, but the governor of Punjab did not perform any significant services for the party. Similarly, the KPK,  Governor and the Chief Minister of Balochistan are also not seen to be playing any role in the organization of the party.

The current presidential term of President Asif Ali Zardari is passing quietly. He is completely limited to the President's House as the constitutional head. Asif Ali Zardari's second term as President, Chaudhry Fazal Elahi, President Rafiq Tarar and Syed Mamnoon Hussain are not looking different. He also faces health problems but his political activities are limited.

PPP has maintained its identity while being in power and in opposition for six decades, but on this foundation day, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has raised questions about the past struggle of the party by supporting the use of force along with negotiations for political stability.

After the execution of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, MRD movement was launched in Sindh province, General Zia-ul-Haq administration used immense power and there was silence in Sindh for a long time. Bilawal Bhutto Zardari should remember that Ms. Nusrat Bhutto and Ms. Benazir Bhutto were also victims of the Zia administration's strategy of using force.

A leader of a political party should not support the use of force on the people, a politician always talks about dialogue. If dialogue is supported for the improvement of cross-border relations, then the path of dialogue should also be adopted to improve the internal situation of the country.

American Ambassador Rafeel, who lost his life in the plane crash along with General Zia-ul-Haq, his widow, Ambassador Robin Rafeel, was on a visit to Pakistan in recent days. Had an informal discussion regarding Pak-US relations and the election of Donald Trump and the inauguration of his government in January. She believed that Donald Trump would not be able to remain indifferent to Pakistan,  would want good relations with Pakistan and political stability in Pakistan would be his wish.

Ms. Robin  believed that Pakistan should try to maintain better relations with Afghanistan, because we have suffered a lot by fighting in Afghanistan.

Robin  seemed very optimistic about Pakistan's resources, she has memories in Pakistan, so she is deeply interested in Pakistan affairs. She believed that in the differences of the US with China and Iran, but both are important countries in the region. Trade ties between the US and China remain, and economic cooperation continues despite political differences.

The UNESCO Consultative Meeting on Media and Information Literacy was held at DHA SUFFA University in collaboration with Media Foundation 360 to gather input from key stakeholders for a Media and Information Literacy Strategy in Pakistan. In which important representatives of media and society participated.

The challenge facing the media, society and the government in Pakistan at this time is how to prevent fake news, but for this it is also important that the government institutions should provide  accurate information about their institutions and governance in a timely manner to the people and media. Information Commissions have been created under Right to Information Article 19-A, but despite this, government institutions show reluctance and delay in providing information, this attitude should be changed.

The  Shares Market has set a record in the history of Pakistan and the index has crossed the psychological threshold of one hundred thousand. There is a separate debate on why there is such a boom in the stock market despite the worst economic conditions and political instability and why its effects are not reflected on other industries and business activities of Pakistan.

The federal government has increased the prices of petroleum which is surprising, the government had claimed that inflation has come down and economic indicators have improved, then the justification for increasing the prices of petroleum is beyond comprehension. Now the journey of inflation will start again, the problems of the people do not seem to decrease.

 Chief of Army Staff General Asim Munir's meeting with the leadership of the business community in Karachi, members of the business community also openly expressed their views. According to informed sources, the business community was of the opinion that since Karachi was no longer the capital, its conditions have been deteriorating. Even now, if it is made the capital for a few months, the situation may change. The business community has suggested that if business activities are started in the city of Karachi in the right way, then no one can stop the development of Pakistan. The city of Karachi is held by various mafias. The provincial government has failed to solve the water problem. While the land mafia is active with full force. 

The business community had already raised this situation before the Chief of Army Staff, but no progress has been made so far.

General Asim Munir took a realistic view that only Pakistanis can bail out Pakistan. While his position was different in the beginning, he talked about bringing an investment of 100 billion dollars, this dream has not yet been converted into reality. Pakistanis can make Pakistan progress only if the state of Pakistan trusts its citizens. To strengthen the relationship between citizens and the state, the government of Pakistan should establish a system of justice and fairness. The people are grinding in the mill of oppression, whether the government is federal or provincial, politicians and bureaucracy (civil and military) are living a life of decorum. Administrative expenses of the government are unfair. People are being burdened, how will Pakistanis invest in such a situation?

Protecting the citizens should be the first priority of the state and the use of tax money on non-productive projects should be stopped, then the confidence of the people will increase, but the government officials are not ready to make such a big sacrifice. 

The announcement of new canals on the Indus River has spread anxiety in Sindh province. JUIF held an all-party conference in which the People's Party also participated and the Chief Minister of Sindh also gave statements regarding the water of Sindh, but GDA refused to participate in the conference in the presence of the People's Party. Dr. Safdar Abbasi is of the opinion that the federal government has taken the leadership of People's Party into confidence and started work on Cholistan Canal. The federal government has not yet clarified its position on this unrest in Sindh.

Ideas 2024, the defence expo concluded in Karachi, on which it was announced that 82 MoUs and agreements had been signed. It is a welcome thing that the private sector should be more involved in this sector. Pakistan's defence expenditure can come down significantly if exports of defence equipment increase substantially.

Pakistan's business community should start joint ventures, this will lead to good relations with friendly countries. Institutions of Turkiye Iran and China achieved a prominent position in the defence exhibition and also received awards. It can be hoped that Pakistan will emerge as a major player in defence equipment and create employment opportunities by utilizing modern technology.

The province of Sindh has formally demanded the federal government to hold a meeting of the Council of Common Interests. It has been almost 9 months since the current government setup was formed, despite the coalition parties, the Prime Minister is not holding a meeting of the Council of Common Interests. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province had earlier demanded that a meeting of the council be called, now the coalition party of the government has also demanded. It is strange that why the province of Punjab is silent in this regard, reservations have arisen on the distribution of water between the federation and the provinces. Sindh province wants constitutional protection of 1991 agreement. The federal government should also discuss the issues of gas and water in the Council of Common Interests. It is also important to discuss the merits and demerits in the federal and provincial governments policies. A new understanding between the federation and Provinces is the need of the hour.

People's Party is celebrating its foundation day on November 30. Since its inception, People's Party has seen many difficulties, leaders have been killed, but it has also gained power many times. Of course, it has great works to its credit, but in the current situation, the biggest loss that the People's Party has taken is that it has changed from a federal party to a provincial party.  but at the national level it has not got the status it had during the time of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Ms. Benazir Bhutto. It is a challenge for Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to bring back the position of his mother's and maternal grandfather's time and position of the party. Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has a lot of time but he will have to do national politics, he will have to come out of provincial politics which seems difficult.

After reports of displeasure with the government by Chairman People's Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif took notice of this and soon the Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar has been instructed to meet with Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to remove the concerns. People's Party says that the PML-N government has failed to fulfill its promises. Refusing to divulge the details of the agreements, he said that his party was not being respected mainly for being a government ally. As if the federal government did not take some decisions by taking the allies into confidence. They are also not satisfied with the formation of constitutional benches. It remains to be seen how the Deputy Prime Minister addresses their concerns.

The federal government is planning to build  six different canals from the river Indus. The Darya Bachao movement has also started on this. Although the top leadership of the People's Party has not given any strong statement on it, the leader of the People's Party, Arslan Sheikh, who belongs to Sukkur, has said in a statement that the support of the federal government It does not mean that a compromise should be made on the water of Sindh. The Muslim League-N cannot keep the People's Party angry and neither can they tolerate each other's anger. Therefore, even the biggest difference appears to be minor. Because finally Mian Nawaz Sharif and President Asif Ali Zardari are there to find a final solution to all such differences. The top leadership of both sides has a flexible attitude towards each other.

People's Party has got the majority in the municipal by-elections. People's Party has won more representatives in all the districts. Other parties have expressed reservations on this. Tehreek-e-Insaf and Jamaat-e-Islami are not satisfied with the election results. Nationalist parties of Sindh have also opposed the extraction of more canals from the Indus River, but they have not tried to establish their position in the local elections. Supporters of nationalist parties are scattered, they can gather for a protest and act as a pressure group, but their success in electoral politics is not visible. They take part in all the issues of Sindh province, but they are not an effective political force in the election.

Chief Minister Sindh has made great efforts to improve his performance. One of these successful efforts was a lively discussion on the Carbon Care Project on the Indus Delta at the Environmental Conference in Baku, Azerbaijan. The Indus Delta can play an important role in improving the environment.

The decision to seek help from Russia to revive the steel mills is also significant. Steel Mills was a profitable enterprise in 2008, after which it started to decline and within two years it turned into a non-performing project. 22 billion corruption was exposed, the finance director and CEO of this institution faced imprisonment and lawsuits. The pension fund of the employees of the steel mills was also used, after that the mill was completely shut down from 2014.  It will have to be regenerated. The support from Russia is being welcomed by civil society because it was launched with the help of Russia.

A tough time is about to begin for the MQM as one of their long-time associates and former governor Ishratul Ibad Khan is launching a new political party called Meri Pehchaan Pakistan. Although he is starting it from Islamabad, his main and primary target will be the electorate of Karachi.

Dr. Ishratul Ibad Khan will soon reach Islamabad and start a new political journey. So far, no important person has shown his commitment to him. Dr. Ishratul Ibad Khan was the governor of Sindh for fourteen years, his time was the time of MQM's power, he was a very powerful governor during the time of General Pervez Musharraf. At the same time, many of MQM's own workers were killed, Baldia factory incident happened, May 12 tragedy happened, lawyers were burnt in Karachi, Benazir Bhutto's murder was surrounded by fire in the entire province. Of course, questions about these events will follow him.

Index is making record in market shares. But the business community is expressing difficulties.

The 12th edition of the country's exhibition on Defence has begun and this time delegates are coming in record numbers. More than 50 countries have become a part of it. The theme of the use of modern technology is prominent in the Ideas exhibition as IT and drone technology have made a splash around the world. It is being fully demonstrated in recent wars between Russia, Ukraine and Israel, Iran and Lebanon. Artificial Intelligence is also playing an important role in targeting. The outlook for future wars also seems to be changing. Along with army, navy and air force, cyber force has also become integral. With this defence exhibition, Pakistan can find ways to achieve success in defence diplomacy and defence economy.

It can be hoped that the political and military leadership of Pakistan will formulate a strategy considering public support as a necessity for defence of the country.

Quetta, the capital of Balochistan, was targeted by terrorism and a suicide blast took place at the Quetta railway station. It becomes easy for terrorists to target such places where people rush. This terrorism has mourned the whole country. IG Police Railways has given orders for security alert at all railway stations of the country. By the way, there is a security alert situation in Pakistan all the time and the entire nation should work together to deal with terrorists. The National Action Program should be completed in any case. No city of Pakistan is out of their target and neither does the terrorist see who has what creed,cast, color and race.

Pakistan is facing challenges like terrorism, extremism and separatism, for that, efforts should be made to control the situation politically. The path to recovery of Pakistan's economy can be fully paved only when the path of political stability is adopted.

Chinese residents have been attacked once again in the city of Karachi. This is the most worrying thing, the country that is investing in Pakistan is being targeted by terrorists. The conversation between the Deputy Prime Minister, the Foreign Minister at an event in Islamabad was considered offensive by the Chinese ambassador and reacted to it at the same time. Government ministers should have a careful discussion in this regard.

The supplementary stages of local body elections in Sindh will be completed on November 14. The number of polling stations for ten local body seats in Karachi has been set at 167. Jamaat-e-Islami leadership has alleged that the provincial government is making arrangements for pre-poll rigging. Transparency should be taken into account in this regard.

Door-to-door election campaign is conducted in the election for representation in the local bodies. People take a lot of interest in it, so they also have a close look at the results of this election. If any irregularity is noticed in it, it is pointed out immediately. The people of Karachi still remember the drama of the Mayor Karachi election. Therefore, the administration should not take any action that would further undermine the credibility of the election.

Tehreek-e-Insaaf leaders held a press conference at the Karachi Press Club and expressed their concerns that there were problems in the coverage of the press conference they hold at the Insaf House. So now we have chosen Karachi Press Club. We hope that this time there will be no attempt to stop our coverage in the media.

It is very worrisome and a threat to democracy that a political party raises the question that its news is being forcibly withheld. Media institutions have always faced difficulties but efforts are made to overcome these difficulties in some way.  what has been done here should not be ignored.

After the 26th constitutional amendment, constitutional benches are being created in the high courts of the country. The resolution was passed in the Sindh Assembly and the work of making the constitutional bench active has started, but the question has been raised regarding several cases of the Sindh High Court that the process of the cases that will be transferred to the constitutional bench has not been completed yet. The cases are seeking transfer to the Constitution Bench. During the hearing of the case against the Board of Revenue, the lawyer had also raised the objection. The cases that are to be transferred to the Constitution Bench should be determined immediately, along with this, it is also of interest that the 26th Constitutional Amendment has been challenged in the High Courts and how it will be heard in the Constitution Bench itself. An amendment against him may be heard in the Full Court.

Regarding the retired employees, their problems are increasing while unemployment has already increased to a great extent, the retired employees who have been serving in federal institutions were allotted houses in Karachi, now the government  wants to get back from them, the MQM leadership has expressed concerns that in this way senior citizens will become homeless. Pakistan lacks a coherent and fair policy on government transport and accommodation. Therefore, the use of these two facilities is wrong and problems also arise. In this regard, the policy should be fair.

New records  have been established in the stock exchange. Now it seems that this index will cross the psychological limit of 100,000. It should be hoped that this will have a positive impact on the country's economy, which has not yet come.

The privatization of PIA has been criticized from all sides, but there has also been a bit of a joke, especially with the provinces showing interest in buying the airline. The Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa gave a statement and then the video of Mian Nawaz Sharif was released from America.

In fact, it is a national asset, but it was treated the same way as other national assets were treated in different periods of government. The Federal Ministry of Privatization was responsible for the privatization of PIA, but the seriousness aspect was neglected in the way this process was done. A real estate group even advertised it well on its TV channel and tried lobbying but was stingy in bidding for Pakistan's national brand, hence the case became a joke. The federal government should take note of this.

PIA has assets worth more than ten billion in Karachi. It was better for the federal government to sell PIA through Stock Exchange. In order to make the public a shareholder, still the federal government should sell the shares of PIA through the stock exchange, increasing the number of private directors will improve corporate governance.

At the Karachi Press Club, the Indus River Saving Conference was held, progressive leader Zain Shah criticized the Government of Pakistan and especially the President for planning to drain six more canals from Sindh. While the Arsa Act is also being amended, he was of the view that less water than Sindh is falling into the sea due to which a large part of the land is being exposed to the sea. An indication has been given to run a movement for this, thus GDA has also spoken about protecting the water of Sindh. The provincial government started the reconstruction of Sukkur Barrage a few days ago, seven canals originate from Sukkur Barrage which irrigate the lands of Sindh.

The reason for the land of Sindh to be seaward is that the river does not flow throughout the year. For this, it is necessary to build dams so that the water flow in the river continues throughout the year. Attention should be paid to securing the Indus Delta, where the Indus River joins the sea. Progressive leader Zain Shah also criticized the 26th constitutional amendment, which he believed sought to undermine the independence of the judiciary.

A resolution has been passed in the Sindh Assembly under Article 202 of the Constitution under which a constitutional bench will also be formed in the High Court. 123 members of People's Party and MQM supported it as if MQM did not discuss it even though it was in the opposition in the Sindh Assembly as per its federal policy.

Jamaat-e-Islami and Sunni Ittehad Council (Tehreek-e-Insaf) opposed this resolution. In any assembly, if the members do not debate and discuss a resolution, bill or act, but put a stamp of approval on it, then it does not fulfill the requirements of democracy. The party policy should at least be such that the members should be free to express their opinions.

Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has severely criticized the current government and termed Mian Nawaz Sharif's victory from Lahore National Assembly constituency as doubtful. He says that if Form 45 is decided regarding the election, then the current system will not be able to stand. The present ruler and style of governance is a burden.

Two billion are being spent on the planes of the President and the Prime Minister. According to recent reports, the Prime Minister of Pakistan and his delegation have stayed in expensive hotels during their visit to Saudi Arabia.

President Asif Ali Zardari, who is in Dubai on a private visit where his stay has been extended by a sprained foot, public opinion is that the President should have no problem returning by his special plane. Because they can be treated better in Pakistan.

The US elections have started and the impact of its results in Pakistan is under discussion, many people are of the opinion that in case of Donald Trump's victory, there will be a change in the US policy towards Pakistan.
