Allhumdolillah! I am at a much better place since my last post with series of lab tests, utlrasounds, a mammogram and some other really scary tests, and a gut wrenching anxiety of results. I am doing well thankfully everything was clear except low iron levels with vitamin d3 deficiency. These deficiencies are now on their way to recovery. It is worth noting that I have been struggling with intense brain and physical fatigue since 2019 but not a single doctor was able to identify my problem. Once somebody is diagnosed with depression or anxiety then every health issue they complain about is looked from the psychological lenses. Nobody asked me to check iron, vitamin b12 or vitamin d3 deficiencies even my mum who is a dermatologist always assured me that I am fine and this weakness is just a phase. It was a phase alright, it engulfed almost 8 years of my life pushed back my career and research ambitions. This is not the case alone with me but there are many people who silentl...
23 March- PAKISTAN RESOLUTION DAY
23rd March of 1940 a milestone in the struggle of all the Progenitors and great leaders to achieve an independent country, Pakistan. The Lahore Resolution or Qarardad-e-Lahore, popularly known as the Pakistan Resolution or Qarardad-e-Pakistan, was presented by A. K. Fazlul Huq and was the formal political statement adopted by the Muslim League at the occasion of its three-day general session on 22–24 March 1940 that called for greater Muslim autonomy in British India, held at Manto Park (now Iqbal Park), Lahore. The Lahore Resolution had been largely interpreted as the demand for a separate Muslim state.
Mr. Sikandar Hayat Khan, the then Chief Minister of the Punjab, drafted the original Lahore Resolution. The Resolution was placed before the Subject Committee of the All India Muslim League for discussion and amendments. The Resolution text unanimously rejected the concept of a United India on the grounds of growing inter-communal violence and recommended the creation of an independent Muslim state.
Mohammad Ali Jinnah officially known and revered in Pakistan as Quaid-i-Azam, a 20th century great politician and statesman, who is also regarded as the founder of Pakistan. In these sessions held at Lahore he propelled the Two-Nation Theory and exhaustively focused his address on the reasons for the demand for separate Muslim homeland. According to historians this was the moment when Jinnah, the former ambassador of Hindu-Muslim unity, totally transformed himself into Pakistan's great leader.
To articulate the fortitude of the people in those times in few words is far beyond my inadequate writing competence and I could not dare to embark upon enunciating the integrity of those spirits. Nevertheless, in all my humbleness the Two-Nation Theory as I understood with my meager intellect was presented keeping in view the poor living conditions and paucity of opportunities available to Muslims. In the times of British Raj in India, Hindus being the majority of the population and Muslims although being a major minority were not given equal opportunities to health, education, employment, standard of living, and foremost the security of life for Muslims was negligible.
All I could say is, we as a nation shall always be in deference and owe a tremendous debt to hundreds and thousands of people who lost their lives, their loved ones to bestow us with the gift of our own country; a land where we could live and breathe with freedom and dignity.
