Imran Khan hits back at Trump: Here’s what Global media is saying



By Salahuddin Salarzai

Islamabad-With Prime Minister Imran Khan lashing out at United States (US) President Donald Trump and stating that his “baseless rhetoric” will no longer be acceptable to the country, the former’s statements have been very well received by people – especially Pakistanis – on social as well as mainstream media.

Amid all the praise that PM Khan’s tweets have attracted, here’s how his response to Trump’s tirade against Pakistan has been covered by foreign media


 Prime Minister Imran Khan has said US President Donald Trump needs to inform himself about historical facts after Trump alleged that Islamabad did not adequately support the Washington-led "war on terror".

In a series of statements on Twitter on Monday, Khan listed ways in which Pakistan assisted the US and was impacted by the war, saying the "record needs to be put straight on Mr Trump's tirade against Pakistan".

UNDP, s NDHR 2017 report and Dilemma of Youth of Pakistan

Amazing tweets and posts on social media are coming from the educated people especially from youth social media accounts about UNDP “Pakistan National Human Development Report PKNDHR 2017”. I would like to ask a simple question from the educated people that Did you read this report? I am sure that the answer would be “No”.  “This latest report has extremely important findings about Pakistani youth in particular. It would be unfortunate to drag this report into politics and make it controversial and some media Channels try their best to make controversies by using it for one party as publishing a report on comparison of four provinces from UNDP’s YDI report on exactly the day which Imran Khan had chosen to announce his 100-day programme was a work of art and pre-plan”. The purpose of every tweet and post is criticism on PTI lead Government in KP while comparing the KP Government with Punjab and Sindh.  I would like to share with you the story of UNDP repor...

A need for educational emergency in Pakistan

Pakistan is transitioning from an agriculture economy to industrial economy. The country spends most of its budget on national security and infrastructure, a very low proportion of budget is allocated for social services such as education and health.  With the increasing poverty in the world, the ratio of Out of School children is increasing day by day. According to the UNESCO, almost 264 million children do not go to the school. Globally, 1 in 5 adolescents is not in school compared to almost 1 in 10 primary school-age children. This show that as the child grows the ratio of his/her drop out is increasing.

This is the very alarming situation for the underdeveloped country, government and authorities should take serious steps on the emergency basis to counter the situation. Article 25-A of the constitution of Pakist...
