Pakistan is a key ally in U.S.-led counterterrorism efforts. The history of democracy in Pakistan is a troubled one marked by ongoing tripartite power struggles among presidents, prime ministers, and army chiefs. Military regimes have ruled Pakistan directly for 34 of the country’s 60 years in existence, and most observers agree that Pakistan has no sustained history of effective constitutionalism or parliamentary democracy. In 1999, the democratically elected government of then-Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was ousted in a bloodless coup led by then-Army Chief Gen. Pervez Musharraf, who later assumed the title of president. In 2002, Supreme Court-ordered parliamentary elections—identified as flawed by opposition parties and international observers—seated a new civilian government, but it remained weak, and Musharraf retained the position as army chief until his November 2007 retirement. In October 2007, Pakistan’s Electoral College reelected Musharraf to a new five-year term in a controversial vote that many called unconstitutional. The Bush Administration urged restoration of full civilian rule in Islamabad and called for the February 2008 national polls to be free, fair, and transparent. U.S. criticism sharpened after President Musharraf’s November 2007 suspension of the Constitution and imposition of emergency rule (nominally lifted six weeks later), and the December 2007 assassination of former Prime Minister and leading opposition figure Benazir Bhutto.

    Media Tracking Report 28 Dec, 2020 - 15 Jan, 2021 Education in Pakistan Govt announces phase-wise opening of educational institutions from Jan 18 - DAWN The country's education ministers, in a meeting, decided to reopen educational institutions in the country in phases from January 18. Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Health Dr Faisal Sultan, cautioned that more precautions were needed to control the spread of Covid-19, since data showed that closing the educational institutions earlier had led to a "delay in [the spread of] the virus". In a separate press conference, Punjab Minister for School Education Dr Murad Raas termed the 50 per cent attendance policy "the most important thing", saying that schools were being opened "not because the coronavirus situation [had improved] but because the children were incurring huge educational losses". Pakistan, Turkey ink education MoU - The News Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and Pakistani education minister Shafqat Mahmood signed a MoU for the promotion of literacy in Pakistan in a ceremony also attended by foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi. With this, Turkey’s Maarif Foundation will be able to expand its operations in Pakistan in terms of opening and running new campuses, cultural and educational centers, language centers, student exchange programs, and scholarships The worst of worlds: Faisal Bari - DAWN A common complaint about public-sector teacher recruitment used to be regarding nepotism and corruption, since then there has been significant reform with teacher’s recruited through a system that is more transparent and ‘objective’. However, this has had unintended consequences. Literature on teachers shows that academic performance of candidates does not predict well whether a person is going to be a good teacher or not.
