Have you ever wondered why has an on-screen couple melted your heart or sizzled the screen? If not, here are the two top most reasons we could come up with.
Firstly, it is the chemistry between the couple that makes you wonder what would it be like to have a similar person in your life. Secondly, it is the story which is the brain child of some great writers that makes you feel like you are, indeed a part of it.
These iconic couples not only look good together, but the idea and the way they are portrayed in the drama has a huge impact on our lives; this is why they are remembered for a long time to come.
With an intense competition in this field, we have tried to compile a list of our all-time favorite on-screen couples for you. Let’s have a look;
1. Fawad Khan & Mahira Khan – Humsafar
We all know Khirad and Asher and their amazing chemistry on-screen. It is not surprising for a couple this good looking to win hearts. However, apart from their good looks, the director ‘Sarmad Khoosat’ also played a major role in the success of the drama.
2. Osman Khalid Butt & Maya Ali – Diyar e Dil/ Aun Zara
The amazing sync between Wali and Farah is something to rave about. It made the girls go crazy and indulge in weekly debates on how good looking Wali was or how they despised some characters.
The serial had drastic ups and downs in its course and it made the viewers feel like they were a major part of it; making them laugh in the happy moments and cry when life got hard. I think that is what a good drama is all about.
The steaming chemistry between Feroze Khan and Sajal Aly has remained quite the talk of the town! The two sizzled on screen together in popular dramas like Gul-e-Rana and Chup Raho, paving their way towards the silver screen in the upcoming romantic flick, Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai.
The much-hyped directorial venture of Anjum Shehzad, Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai has created quite the buzz in media with fans anxiously awaiting the movie release. Their on-screen chemistry often made the fans wonder if the two are indeed dating in real life.
4. Farhan Saeed & Urwa Hocane-Udaari/Mere Ajnabi
Fans really can’t seem to get enough of the good-looking duo, Farhan and Urwa. The lovebirds are smitten with each other and their off and on-screen chemistry give us some serious relationship goals! The star couple is currently working their magic in HUM Tv’s popular drama serial, Udaari also starring Bushra Ansari and Ahsan Khan.
The two were recently traveling Europe, shooting their latest song ‘Saathiya’ in Berlin, flooding our Instagram feed with pictures and giving us serious travel goals.
Apart from working together in Udaari, Farhan and Urwah have also starred in ARY Digital’s drama serial ‘Mere Ajnabi’ and have done sizzling photoshoots for Hello Magazine.
5. Maya Ali & Hamza Ali Abbasi- Mann Mayal
The tragically romantic HUM TV drama serial, Mann Mayal has reaped in quite the ratings, owed to its stellar cast, emotional script and the scintillating on-screen chemistry of the never-seen-together-before couple, Maya Ali and Hamza Ali Abbasi.
Sallu and Mannu, sure have become the fan favourite!
6. Fawad Khan & Sanam Baloch – Dastaan
Even though Bano and Hassan never got their happy ending but ‘Dastaan’ was never about their love story. Dastaan was a story about passion and struggle for freedom, pure love, and true sacrifice.
It wasn’t our everyday love story but a tale about sacrifices that the Muslims gave in order to acquire a land they could call theirs.
Bano and Hassan resonated with everybody who has once loved and then lost it. The ending was heartbreaking and disappointing for many, but it was true to its plot.
7. Faysal Quraishi & Savera Nadeem – Mera Yaqeen
Directed by Sarmad Khoosat and aired on ARY Digital, Mera Yaqeen revolves around the complexities of a family. It is about a true love which is put to a test. The on-screen chemistry and amazing storyline of the drama set it apart.
The romantic drama serial, Pyare Afzal, is known for its script, dialogue delivery, background script and overall finesse along with the fact that Afzal and Farah became the very favorite of every Pakistani. Their on-screen enticement kept the viewer glued to the screen.
9. Meekal Zulfiqar & Mahira Khan – Shehr e Zaat
Salman and Falak were seen together in Shehr-e-Zaat, a Pakistani spiritual romantic drama serial based on a novel written by Umera Ahmed. Even though the couple goes through a number of hardships but it is a great exhibition which makes us realize what life is really about.
Falak, through the course of time, has transformed so much that you can not help but fall in love with her. Salman and Falak give hope and is an inspiration for everybody out there.
10. Fawad Khan & Sanam Saeed – Zindagi Gulzar Hai
Zindagi Gulzar Hai is what someone would call a conventional story. With the main leads being poles apart, however, falling in love, their almost divorce and the happily ever after. However, Zaroon and Kashaf did make a pretty good couple. They made the serial worth watching!
11. Rahat Kazmi & Marina Khan – Dhoop Kinarey
Dhoop Kinarey revolved around two doctors, Ahmer, and Zoya, who fell in love with each other despite the huge age gap and were later subjected to atrocities by the society. Nevertheless, the couple came out stronger than ever.
The inclination of Ahmer towards Zoya is what makes them the old-school equivalent of Fawad and Mahira. It was later adopted in a Hindi drama serial ‘Kuch Tou Log Kahenge’ as well.
12. Asif Raza Mir & Shahnaz Shaikh – Tanhaiyaan
Tanhaiyaan, a cult classic, was directed by the legendary Shahzad Khalil. The drama is about Zara, who is too lost in earning money to get back her old house that she neglects true love and her family.
The name of the drama depicts the loneliness Zara feels when she has achieved everything she thought she ever wanted and in the process, lost everything she ever had.
It is also about the enticement between Zara and Zain and how Zain helps her to find her true self. A beautifully written and executed drama with a strong connection between the actors.
13. Omar & Elif – Kaala Paisa Pyaar
Elif and Omar make one of the most iconic on-screen couples! The lives of Elif and Omer are explored with the ultimate test of how two strangers get forced to share the same fate by losing their loved ones!

‘Hello with Mira Sethi’ is the latest talk show people are excited to see and for good reason! The multi-faceted Sethi and her guests have conversations we all could learn something more. This week’s guest was Bushra Ansari and we’ve all got a lesson to learn there too.
5 Years Later
The veteran actress shared her struggle and relationship’s breaking apart in her characteristic, witty yet wise way. Ansari mentioned that her father had ensured she would have a right to divorce in her Nikkahnama which she also feels is essential nowadays. She believes it changes your status as you now, no longer wait to receive the divorce from the other.

36 Years Of Working Out
She took a divorce from her husband after 36 years of marriage. One would typically question why she would opt for a divorce at this age, what is the purpose? Bushra Ansari answered this by explaining her mindset all these 36 years. She mentioned that whenever she thought of opting out of the marriage, she kept in mind her daughters who would feel troubled.
Just like any mother, she thought here is a case in which only I am feeling troubled and then there is another scenario in which 3 people are, her daughters too! Hence, she kept quiet and managed for 36 years until her daughters were in their own homes.

She termed it as “giving relief” to one another after 36 years of marriage.
Watch The Interview!
What Was The Reason?
Bushra Ansari is one of those wise personalities who manage to say a lot in a few words. In a similar fashion, when it came to explaining the reason for her divorce she had something extremely gentle and understanding to say. She said, when two intelligent people come together, they can often clash and rub shoulders and find that to be a dynamic that is not conducive for a good marriage. According to her, it is perfectly alright to acknowledge that.
Why Did She Speak Up 5 Years Later?
Bushra Ansari only started speaking about her divorce this year. Until then, her fans were in the dark about it completely. She shared on a show with Ahsan Khan that the reason for that is how involved fans are in the lives of celebrities’ personal lives. When they hear things like this, they lose their faith in love or in a happy family.

Let me give you a little insight about AirSial before I share my experience with all of you.
AirSial is the freshest production in Pakistan’s aviation! It is a Sialkot –based airline which is an accomplishment of the members of Sialkot Chamber of Commerce and Industry. It is Pakistan’s third privately-owned airline which aims to be the Pride of Pakistan and a leading airline of the region. AirSial is said to operate in Karachi, Sialkot, Islamabad, Lahore & Peshawar.
Well, guess what? I got a chance to travel via AirSial from Karachi to Islamabad!
Enroute to the airport
Arrival at the airport
As I reached the airport, the inaugural ceremony of AirSial was being held with the representatives of AirSial.
Check out this beautiful inaugural ceremony in Karachi & Islamabad!
AirSial says Khush Amdeed!
Highlights from the Special AirSial Flights PF 123 (KHI – ISB) and PF 124 (ISB – KHI) earlier Today.
The check-in counter, which was decorated with green and gold balloons, opened right on-time. The check-in staff was seen wearing khaki suits paired with white shirts and green ties. I headed straight over and handed my ticket and CNIC to the check-in counter representative and he proactively checked me in. The staff was super-efficient and sweet.
The best part? He asked me my seat preference and I said, “of course, the window seat!” He smiled and handed my boarding pass along with a goodie bag!
The goodie bag items included a deo, mug, pen, keychain and a coaster
Not only that but he was sweet enough to allow me to take his picture
Travel tip: For domestic travels, carry your original ID card.
Once I was handed my boarding pass, I was politely asked to head over to the gate and to my surprise, the waiting lounge was packed! To kill some time, I decided to have some fun and spotted the cabin crew of AirSial, a group of beautiful flight attendants. I made them an innocent request – a silhouette boomerang video, to which they agreed and had it shot like pros!
Here it is!
Talk about being in sync
Boarding the aircraft
During boarding, the passengers were divided into 3 batches; in order to avoid any hassle and maintain SOPs, so no bottlenecks were faced. Repeated announcements were being made to instruct passengers to keep their documents handy and follow SOPs.
And well, it was finally time to board the plane!
As I made my way to the aircraft, two cabin crew members were standing at the door to welcome the passengers and wished everyone a safe flight. They were dressed in very sophisticated uniforms designed by the famous, Nomi Ansari. He sure did an eye-catching job! The aircraft was clean and smelled fresh! The seats were clean and comfortable too.
Flight experience keeping in mind the SOPs
Whether the flight is short or long, it should always be a comfortable and pleasant experience. The cabin crew was extremely humble and helpful. I was amazed by the hospitality! Before take-off, as usual, the cabin crew guided the passengers with safety instructions in Urdu & English.
The take-off and punctuality
Take-offs and landings make a lot of people sweat, however, with AirSial, what I experienced was a smooth takeoff, didn’t feel any jerks at all, thank goodness! Plus, they were punctual enough to take off on time! An evidence of effective management.
Moreover, the flight attendants distributed masks to those who weren’t seen wearing them and sanitized the passengers’ hands.
So, not once did I feel they were compromising on quality and hospitality. Not only that but some CAA officials were also on board to keep a check on quality assurance.
Additionally, there were repetitive announcements instructing the passengers to follow SOPs. In case of any violations, the airline has the right to take legal actions against the passenger. An evidence of no-compromise!
We flew at 35,000 ft and I loved my view, thanks to the window seat!
Did anyone ever talk about the ‘passengers‘ not cooperating?
This is important.
While traveling, especially during the pandemic, please note how we must all follow SOPs. I saw passengers removing their masks and not cooperating with the flight attendants. Some passengers were repeatedly requested to put on their masks for everyone’s safety yet an utter disregard of instructions was demonstrated. Hats off to the staff for possessing so much patience!
My face when passengers were violating the SOPs:
Food
Due to COVID-19, the airline is currently not serving meals in order to curb the spread of COVID-19. However, AirSial will be the first airline to serve a two casserole meal for each palate with. How amazing is that?!
Touch down in Islamabad
We landed in Islamabad right on time and like I said, take-offs and landings make people sweat but surprisingly, the landing was absolutely smooth, owing to Air Sial’s pilot’s expertise. They made sure we have a pleasant experience and that was exactly the case.
Disembarking
COVID-19 SOPs were strictly followed throughout the journey. The disembarking was also a showcase of effective management and control, all Passengers were asked to leave their seats in batches in order to main social distancing.
My verdict
Well, will I travel via AirSial again? Definitely! The hospitality, punctuality and most importantly, the safety measures were exceptional! I was impressed by their operational practices and service standards.
AirSial, you’re sure to reach greater heights if you continue providing such amazing services to a passenger! Definitely setting high standards for the competitors.
Hope you liked my account of Air-Sial’s launch and travel experience. Share your thoughts in the comments below!

COVID began as the year 2019 was ending. However, people didn’t pay much heed to it, at least not until it had taken hold of the whole of Italy. After that, Coronavirus just took over the whole world, be it the tourism industry, the news sector, the entertainment industry. Every sector, every industry, was just arrested with the idea of COVID-19, so every discussion revolved around it.
When everything was just paused due to COVID, the pharmaceutical companies jumped into action. They wanted to develop and roll out the vaccine as soon as possible. And they were finally able to. But then there was another scary news awaiting the world. The moment the vaccine for the virus was made, the 2.0 version was discovered in the UK. And then, while the vaccine developers were grappling at trying to figure out how to develop the cure for the new strain, some other country witnessed a newer version.
CEO BioNTech
The vaccine developer, BioNTech’s CEO, hinted that the virus would stay for the next ten years. The CEO shared this prediction in a virtual press conference. So we need to get used to the new normal that people were previously using as a joke.
“We need a new definition of normal. The virus will stay with us for the next ten years.”
Image Source: Business Insider
So the 45 countries that were already expecting the vaccine will now need to get the vaccine for other strains emerging. However, BioNTech CEO has said that the vaccine can be modified for the new vaccine in six weeks. But would that imply that the original virus’s vaccine development would be halted? Moreover, what about every time another strain appears? What would be the game plan for that? Maybe keeping all of these pointers in mind, the CEO set the ten-year deadline.
CEO BioNTech Ugur Sahin:
“In principle, the beauty of the messenger technology is that we can directly start to engineer a vaccine which completely mimics this new mutation – we could be able to provide a new vaccine technically within six weeks.”
New strain(s) of COVID-19
According to Ugur, the new variant in the UK will not impact the vaccine’s efficacy so the whole world basically can stop panicking. The vaccine developers are yet to see what effect it could have.
But here is the news one should panic about. Ever since the discovery of the second mutation, there have been more fatalities ever since April, when the original virus was at its peak.

The Health Secretary Matt Hancock said:
“This new variant is highly concerning because it is yet more transmissible, and it appears to have mutated further than the new variant that has been discovered in the UK.”
The first mutation of the COVID-19 is 70 percent more transmissible than the original strain, so London primarily has seen Tier 4 restrictions.

Pakistan is one of those countries that are rich with resources – natural and intellectual. And as is the case with our natural resources, even our intellectual resources remain mostly unexplored or untapped because of the lack of infrastructure. We, as a country, are blessed with intelligent, bright young individuals who have the skills and the passion but lack the direction. They have all the ingredients that make a successful thinker, innovator, leader and entrepreneur, but not the recipe.
However, that is not to say that there are no opportunities. Many graduates are not even familiar with the limited opportunities that they do have. This gap between potential and opportunity creates many lost opportunities for several deserving individuals; they struggle to find the right path because they don’t know where to look. To address this critical disadvantage, PepsiCo has partnered with Amal Academy to close the gap between the talent pool and the job pool.
The PepsiCo Amal Youth Program is a fellowship program that, during the course of three months, trains individuals in soft skills that are critical for any individual who wishes to enter the job market. Some of the soft skills that are a part of the training program include confidence building, public speaking, and presentation skills. These are some of the skills that help improve a graduate’s skillset, and makes them more marketable.
To mark the momentous occasion, PepsiCo hosted a virtual graduation ceremony on December 23. At the ceremony, PepsiCo and Amal Academy, under the umbrella of PepsiCo Amal Youth Program, announced the Class of 2020, which consisted of 1,600 fellows, 40 percent of whom were young women. Furthermore, the graduates represented more than 135 towns and villages across Pakistan.
Speaking at the ceremony were CEO PepsiCo Pakistan and Afghanistan, Mr. Furqan Ahmed Syed, Mr. Benje Williams Co-Founder Amal Academy, Ali Siddiq the CEO of Amal Academy and the Federal Minister of Science and Technology, Mr. Fawad Chaudhry. The keynote speaker at the ceremony was Ms. Jaqueline Novogratz, Founder and CEO of Acumen.
To provide some background, the PepsiCo Amal Youth Program was launched in 2018, as a platform to train students for soft skills imperative in the competitive job market. Two years in, the program successfully expanded itself into the Sindh and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa regions. Another, more significant achievement, is the fact that of 1,600 fellows, 96 percent have secured job offers or have been guaranteed entrepreneurial ventures.
The program has gained credibility by partnering with the Punjab Higher Education Commission (PHEC) and 16 different universities. This helps fellows of the program secure better opportunities, and compete with and as some of the best students in the country, regardless of where they hail from or their circumstances.
Speaking at the ceremony, Pakistan’s Federal Minister of Science and Technology – Mr. Fawad Chaudhary acknowledged the efforts of the students and the program, “I want to congratulate the 1600 fellows graduating today. I want to wish them luck and would encourage them to pursue their passions. I also want to commend PepsiCo and Amal Academy on this important collaboration.”
Mr. Furqan Ahmed Syed – CEO PepsiCo Pakistan and Afghanistan elaborated, “The PepsiCo – Amal Youth program lends itself to great opportunities for the youth of Pakistan. Our fellows graduating today are extremely passionate, motivated and keen to prove themselves. I am very excited to see what they will achieve for themselves and for the country.”
Mr. Ali Siddiq, the CEO of Amal Academy, was also extremely optimistic about the collaboration, “with PepsiCo’s support, we hope to further expand the program and benefit more young people going forward.”
One of the highlights of the ceremony was the social impact aspect of the program, which instills the importance of giving back to the community. It is mandatory for each fellow to be part of a two-month project called the ‘Mega Project’ which requires for fellows to come with a workable solution to a challenge faced by their communities. Over the past two years, the fellows have delivered over 600 such projects and impacted more than 21,000 people throughout the country.
We appreciate the great effort being done by PepsiCo and Amal Academy and we wish the very best of luck to all the graduates!
Ever since Drilis-Ertugrul gained fame in Pakistan, it was a bit hard for certain local producers and actors to accept, that Pakistanis were no longer interested in typical dramas whose plots revolved around mother-in-law and daughter-in-law’s fights, Extra-marital affairs and overly-emotional unrealistic storylines.
The fame gained by the Turkish stars and dramas was criticized by a few noticeable people of the Pakistani industry who perceived the fame of Ertugrul as a threat rather than taking notes about what the Pakistani viewers were willing to watch. One of the noticeable critics of the drama being broadcasted in Pakistan was Yasir Hussain.
So Why Has Google Listed Esra Bilgic aka Halime Sultan as Yasir Hussain’s Mother?
Image Source: OyeYeah
Now as we approach towards the end of 2020, someone vandalized Yasir Hussain’s Wikipedia page, adding Ertugrul’s Halime Sultan as his mother prompting Google to show Esra Bilgic as Yasir Hussain’s mother.
However there is one problem, Esra Bilgic 8 years younger than Yasir.
Obviously the netizens took it to twitter and made fun of the entire ordeal and had jokes to crack.
It has been a ride since Drilis-Ertugrul gained popularity in Pakistan. After Prime Minister Imran Khan suggested the series to the Pakistani public and it was announced that the series will be broadcasted on PTV, the drama gained immense popularity and love from the Pakistani public for its plot and the fact the story was centered around the Islamic values, contrary to the Indian and Western series and movies we are normally used to seeing.
Yasir has been able to make a name for himself since the past few years after being involved in numerous controversies which has already made him one of the polarized figures of Pakistan. He came under fire after he cracked a joke about child abuse in Hum Awards 2017 after which he had to later apologize.
He also made distasteful comments about transgenders on Instagram, made irresponsible comments about his fellow-star Hania Amir and her issues with acne along with several other irresponsible comments prompting him to become one of the actors of the Pakistani drama industry who are always intertwined in controversies. Recently, a rendition of Anwar Maqsood and Moin Akhtar’s LooseTalk made rounds on social media with Yasir Hussain replacing Moin Akhtar which also prompted reaction from the audience.
With a track record like this, virtual vandalism like this was likely to happen with Yasir Hussain.
WhatsApp has revolutionized the way we communicate with another. It has become an integral part of our lives and one cant imagine their lives without WhatsApp currently.

One of the most loved features on the app, WhatsApp received immense love and praise from its users when they had launched audio and video calls. Now, in 2021 it is expected that WhatsApp plans to introduce video and audio calls on the desktop version as well which will make it even more easier for its users to communicate. Specially amid a pandemic when platforms like Zoom and Google Meet gained immense momentum, it is expected WhatsApp will take lead over both of these platforms when this feature is released.
Pasting Multiple Videos and Audios:
The beta update for iOS version 2.21.10.23 is soon expected to be revealed to the public and will be available to download for all users. This update will allow the users to select multiple pictures and videos into their WhatsApp.

Online business is a great way to bring your idea to life. Online companies are also an efficient business in the day and age where everything is digitalized. Moreover, most of the business success depends on social media. What better than having your company entirely on social media platforms? Read our guide to know the most useful tips to get your online business flying. If you have a small business, this is for you.
1. Identify a Niche
Inquire about a void in the market that needs to be filled. It can be something for which need has grown in quarantine or anything that is generally missing in markets. Moreover, it needn’t be something inventive. You can also just modify existing products to fit them better for consumer demand. Having done that, try to get the first movers advantage.
2. Every Nook And Cranny
Research can help you make your business successful more than anything. Visit relevant forums to know what your competitors are offering. At what price are they offering, how can you make it better, what complaints do they face, etc. Acknowledgment of all these factors will ensure your product is different. The difference will be what you will pull customers with.
3. Don’t Underestimate The Power of Sampling
Sample the product first and take honest feedback. Before that, you can distribute surveys to gather information on whether the product is even needed. Find out what will be the motivation factor of consumers when buying your product and capitalize on it.

Surveying family members and friends is a great way to start. Besides that, many sites allow you to have online surveys.
4. Reach For The Stars Later
Start small. In the initial stages, try your best to add as little financing as possible. The first 5-6 months are crucial; break-even might be confusing so reduce your overheads as much as possible. Gradually increase the investment with sales, so financing is efficient, and you don’t burn out before starting entirely.
5. Marketing is Key
Find cheap alternatives for marketing— you don’t need billboards for startups. But, keep in mind that social media may not always work best. If product targets ppl of 30+ age, then use other means. If, however, your consumer base is comprised of young-adults, then social media is your secret to success.

6. Creativity Creates Customers

Many industries have their tangents. This is when they dip into niches beyond their main one. The company ‘Haier’ is most associated with home appliances like washing machines. However, they are manufacturing and producing Smart Televisions as well. This does not mean that the company itself is not making bad productions. The Haier televisions are some of the best ones out there, on a budget.
Apple’s biggest dip so far is in the automotive industry. Its long-rumored autonomous iCar is finally about to be launched. As all companies rising, Huawei is also one taking a rise in the technological industry. Its phones are considered one of the best ones out there. When 5G was being released worldwide, Huawei was one of the top runners of this race. Now, with advancing technology, Huawei is about to introduce Smart Pillows. Pillows! Is that not a unique piece of innovation from a tech company?

Huawei Time
Huawei took a grip in the market in the previous few years. Its releases, month after month, continued to shock and astonish the users in the market. There was a time, a while back, when Huawei would pop up in any conversation. People still look forward to their new releases. The Huawei Y9 is one of the best phones they provide in the mid-range. Its capabilities make it a worthy buy.
Now, apart from Smartphones, Huawei intends to introduce Smart Pillows to the market. What will be the function of these pillows? How can we use them beyond their standard application of comfort and ease? As we will see, there is much more to this pillow than meets the eye.
Smart Pillows For The Win
Imagine you bought one of the Smart Pillows by Huawei. The moment you lie down and put your head on them, their work will start. The pillows can immediately start monitoring your data, such as Heart rate and breathing rate. This will help in keeping your vitals on track. Additionally, the height of the pillow can also be adjusted in preference to each user!
The pillow’s elasticity is excellent and can assist the sleeper in adjusting their neck according to the pillow itself. Too much strain on the neck or sleeping at awkward angles can really give you pain when you wake up. The pillow can also monitor several turns, sleep cycles, and how many times you leave the pillow.

The Future Of Comfort
This does play well for the future of technology. After all, such innovations are always appreciated due to their innovative approach. To monitor your sleep data, you can still download the Huawei smart application. It will keep a record of monthly and weekly sleep patterns.
We hope that this technology goes a long way without there being any issues within the product. If anyone wishes to buy these, we suggest you keep an eye out for Smart Pillow news! After all, comfort must always be considered in any situation, unless the severity of the situation points otherwise.
It is always a delight to be surfing through the television channels and come upon national geographic. When we observe these animals in their natural habitat, it gives us a hint of how life works in a proper ecosystem. Animals chase after animals, predators bound across plains in search of prey, and the circle of life goes on. It was true as was depicted in the Lion King, from the leader of the pride to the lands beyond a lion’s territory.
Every country has a national animal. It’s the animal that is unique to the country and what the country’s wildlife is recognized by. Pakistan’s national animal is the Markhor. It is a beautiful animal, docile in nature but dangerous when threatened. It stands as a symbol of strength, hope, and grace. However, it is an endangered species and must be protected as such. In recent news, an American has hunted down a Markhor!

The Markhor
It is one of the most graceful creatures ever to embrace this fair earth. They roam about with a sense of pride and royalty. They look like the King of the herbivores when they are seen from afar. When a Markhor walks up to you, you will know that a Markhor has stepped up to you. One of the most defining features of them is their horns.
These horns can reach up to enormous lengths and can be spotted from a considerable distance. They usually weigh anywhere between 40 kg to 110 kg. Yes, it can be a heavy animal. It belongs to the Goat family, and its diet consists of grass, shrubs, herbs.
Hunting The Endangered
As in recent news, an American citizen named Joseph Bradford has hunted down a Markhor in Chitral. The horns of the animal were measured to be reaching about forty inches. It puts a heavy strain on one’s heart to think of life being taken away like this. Of course, if the hunt were on illegal grounds, it would’ve been an even bigger issue.
However, the US-based hunter paid Rs.17.12 Million K-P wildlife department as a hunting permit fee. Out of this, 80% is alleged to be given to the community. The current Markhor popular is approximately a little above 5000 currently. This is still a number more extensive than a decade before, but it needs to go higher.

Preservation Of Wild Life
The wildlife committee has said that the money will be used for the development of wildlife in the region. Not just this, but they intend to preserve the endangered animals for the sake of not letting them go extinct. Many species of various animals have faced extinction in our time.
In Africa, the last of the white rhinos are being kept under close watch. How one connects to the other in hunting and development still remains to be seen in the long term. The chief conservator, Dr. Muhsin Farooq, had said that when this hunting program started, the Markhor population was at 900. Now, it’s beyond 5000.
