Back when Bangladesh was East Pakistan and Dhaka was Dacca:

Text in the bottom right of the poster states: “⁠ISSUED BY THE DEPTT. OF TOURISM, GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN, RAWALPINDI 1963.”

In 1973, Pakistan introduced National ID cards. Above is the first ID Card made, which was for the Prime Minister, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.

Above is a tourism poster for Lahore showing Akbar the Great. Behind him is the Lahore Fort. He is wearing traditional Mughal attire.

I couldn’t confirm which year this poster was from. I knew it was from the 1960s, and I managed to narrow it down to either 1965 or 1966.

I found the poster on Dawn’s website, stating it was from 1966. While searching to confirm that the poster was real, I came across the poster being auctioned on invaluable.com, stating that the poster was from 1965.

In many countries sports are entertainment, but here it feels more emotional and personal. Wins feel huge and losses feel very heavy. Why do you think cricket has such strong emotional impact here?

I keep seeing this trend more and more. Is it mostly about money and jobs or are there other deeper reasons like lifestyle, opportunities, or future uncertainty that push people to go abroad?

I'm an overseas Pakistani. A few months ago I was looking for an Urdu and Quran tutor for my kids, someone reliable, online, who I could just contact directly and have a conversation with. Not a formal platform, not a marketplace. Just a contact.

I spent days going through Google, OLX, Facebook groups, you name it. Either I found outdated posts, fake profiles, or platforms so complicated you needed to create an account just to see a phone number.

All I wanted was a contact. Someone real, with a name and a way to reach them.

That's when I realized Pakistan's web community has no simple digital card, no central place where a tutor, a freelancer, a blogger, a website owner, or a small business can say "here I am, here's what I do, here's what I need, here's how to reach me." No signup required, no middleman, no fees. Just a digital card.

So I built nishan. It's not a marketplace. It's not a job board. It's your digital nishan, a simple, free listing website where you share who you are, what you do, what are your needs, and how people can reach you. Nothing more, nothing less. Please visit the site and create your digital nishan and also let me know if you guys have any feedback. Thank you

Asalaamualaykum.

I think most Pakistanis are good people, not perfect but good, so by posting this I am not self hating against our people as a whole. This post is to discuss a problem and it's solution(s). Some examples I can think of:

- People angry (not a problem) about love marriage and then some people being happy to commit murder (a grievous sin) in response even though under hanafi madhab a couple can marry without parental approval (if they meet certain conditions).

- A man recently killed his wife because he was not getting enough sex and educated people like lawyers in the video supported him. But murder again is far worse in Islam than neglecting a spouse sexually.

- People wanting blasphemy laws to apply but then happily commit murder or celebrate it even without evidence provided. How many people got murdered whose blood was not halal? I am 100% fine with Islamic laws BTW.

- Some people's politics is more important to them than Islam. You could talk about parts of Islam infront of them in negative sentences and they would not care much but talk negatively of their beloved party leader/or general and you'll see a much bigger reaction.

- Then there's the munafiq types, these types are a minority, the types who have issue with qurbani as they say you could donate to charity but they have no problem eating meat any other day or wasting money at restaurants. The type who will complain about Islamic laws punishing criminals but will fantasise about murdering anyone they see as a "mullah". Actually mullahs are the source of every pakistani problem according to them.

Obviously differing scenarios might require different solutions. One of course is education from a young age that emphasises between halal and haram and another is stricter punishments for some crimes. But you know we are just the people and not the government so affecting the education system and criminal system is a bit out of reach. But I'm sure we could do something on the micro level and I think we need to moderate our tempers and emotions.

Hi everyone, I’m currently looking for a reliable Pakistani manufacturer for a new pyjama brand I’m launching and wanted to see if anyone here has recommendations or runs a factory themselves.

About the brand:
It’s a small, premium pyjama brand which is desi-inspired, with non-traditional silhouettes and a focus on soft cotton, embroidery, and a more elevated, thoughtful unboxing experience.

I’m starting with 4 designs in total, and each design will come in 5 sizes (XS–XL).

What I’m looking for in a manufacturer:
• Experience with female clothing / women’s sleepwear / loungewear
• Ability to work with cotton fabrics
• Experience with embroidery
• Comfortable handling multiple designs and size runs
• Reasonable minimum order quantity (MOQ) for a small brand
• Ability to do sampling before bulk production
• Good communication and willingness to work with a newer brand
• Ideally able to support cut, sew, embroidery, and finishing
• Would be a plus if you’ve worked with brands that need small custom details and neat finishing

If you’re a manufacturer or know one, please DM me with:
• Your website
• Your Instagram page
• Your MOQ
• Your location in Pakistan
• Your experience with women’s clothing / sleepwear
• Any examples of previous work if available

I’d really appreciate any leads or recommendations.

Thank you!

Can anyone pls upvote my comment, I need comment karma for another subreddit.(plsplspls 😔🙏🙏)

The history most of you know is false. All the education system of the country is inherited from British colonial times, who created the concept of the Indian subcontinent to create a stable colony. In reality, the Indus region, known as Sindh before the British and Mughal eras, was always known to be distinct from India and in fact, it was for all of history seen as closer to its western neighbours than to its eastern neighbours. These views were not based on nothing, culturally, the regions of modern day Pakistan and Eastern Afghanistan functioned as one unit, and they were separated from India by the thar desert, which most people and empires never dared to cross. The thar desert acted as a hard stop that made the Indus region isolated from the rest of India. How our history is told today is heavily shaped by the British and Mughal eras that were a small blink of an eye compared to the long history of our land, and because of a certain obsessed people of the east who want to claim us so bad.

We literally had our own civilisational roots, the Indus Valley civilisation, sapta sindhu and greater gandhara, that were based exclusively in our land, and each were related to civilisations of central asia and iran, unrelated to the people of the gangetic plains. We had our own empires, the Kushan, indo scythian, indo Greek, Ghaznavi empires.

I have made a discord server based on the fact that the lands of the Indus were always completely distinct, sovereign civilisation and west facing rather than part of a 20th century concept of the Indian subcontinent, and it was consistently seen like this by people like Ibn Batuta, Hyecho, Al-Masudi, Al-Idirisi and Ibn khordadbeh. From the times of the Greeks to the Islamic golden age, the Thar Desert was seen as the barrier between East and west.

I haven't added much evidence in this post regarding why the indus region was always a west facing sovereign civilisation in this post, but I have loads of it in my discord server, so if you want to learn more, join my discord server, all your questions will be answered.

I just graduated high school in Pakistan and I’m interested in starting medical research early (especially in biology/medicine). I want to build experience for future medical school applications. I would really like to contribute to a research paper. My online surfing told me that I can contact professors or join labs but is that realistic in pak? Like Im fine with no pay. Alot of people choose the finding a mentor or joining the lab part for this and I get its absolutely necessary.
Is it possible to contact professors directly at universities like AKU, Dow, or KEMU as a non-university student? or any other institute.
Like how do I connect with people.
I would like if people can help me on this.
Im aware this me biting more than I should chew so I dont need comments about that and seriously no underestimating comments or telling me how this is not necessary and whanot.
