The importance of trade has been recognized as a vital component of sustainable development for an economy. To achieve the goal of sustained economic growth, economies always try to maximize the benefits of trade and especially exports. The purpose of the study is to investigate the impact of Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) plus on the economic growth of Pakistan. The European Union, the largest trading partner of Pakistan granted this status to Pakistan in December 2013. The study attempted to employ the Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model in its global version called Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) to measure the economic gains for Pakistan at macro level under the GSP plus status. The study also used MyGTAP, developed by Minor & Walmsley (2013) to calculate the impact at the household level. This MyGTAP model uses the data of the latest available Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) to makes changes in the standard GTAP by including multiple types of household and labor. The results of different simulations run by standard GTAP and MyGTAP reveal that there is an overall increase in the GDP of Pakistan. The results of all simulations by using standard GTAP 09 suggest a positive change in the real GDP, real investment, merchandise imports and terms of trade of Pakistan while the merchandise exports of Pakistan show decline in case of the second simulation. The main findings of the simulations, run under MyGTAP model also show a positive change in real GDP, merchandise imports, real investment and terms of trade while the first simulation shows a negative change in merchandise exports. Similarly, – EBA status of Pakistan in the EU28 show an increase in the household income with maximum gain by the household of rural Sindh with no agriculture land and a positive change in real wages of most of the factors. However, the large and medium agricultural household types show a negative change in household income in case of the first simulation. Comparatively low improvement over the urban and non-farm household of rural areas of Pakistan.

مولوی احتشام علی ندوی افسوس ہے کہ ۲۰؍ رمضان المبارک کو مولوی احتشام علی ندوی اچانک چل بسے، ان کی تعلیم دارالعلوم ندوۃ العلماء میں ہوئی، وہ مولانا عبدالسلام قدوائی ندوی مرحوم کے چہیتے شاگردوں میں تھے، انہی کے ایما سے جامعہ ملیہ میں داخلہ لیا، مولانا عبدالسلام صاحب نے لکھنؤ میں ادارۂ تعلیمات اسلام کی داغ بیل ڈالی تو اس کی تشکیل میں یہ بھی ان کے معاون رہے اور ان کی نگرانی میں صحابہ کرام کے حالات میں مختصر اور عام فہم بعض کتابچے لکھے۔ دارالمصنفین سے ان کا تعلق دو بار رہا، پہلی دفعہ وہ مولانا عبدالسلام قدوائی کے ساتھ آئے اور محاسب کی ذمہ داری سنبھالی، ان کے انتقال کے بعد انہوں نے بھی یہاں سے تعلق منقطع کرلیا، تاہم دارالمصنفین سے ان کے لگاؤ میں کمی نہیں آئی جناب سید صباح الدین صاحب مرحوم کے انتقال کے بعد پھر وہ دارالمصنفین تشریف لائے اور پریس کی نگرانی اور دوسرے انتظامی امور ان کو سپرد کئے گئے لیکن اس دفعہ ان کی صحت خراب رہنے لگی۔ دو تین برس سے کمزوری بہت بڑھ گئی تھی اور ضعف بصر کی شکایت بھی ہوگئی تھی۔ ان کا انتقال دارالمصنفین ہی میں ہوا، مگر تدفین ان کے وطن رحیم آباد میں ہوئی۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ درجات بلند کرے اور اہلیہ و اعزہ کو صبرِ جمیل عطا کرے آمین!

In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa the situation of human rights is comparatively worse. Factors affecting human rights in this province include failure to guarantee good governance, growing poverty, illiteracy, violence, terrorism, worsening security, social injustice, political instability, and economic turmoil. These factors have been affecting adversely the human rights. To ensure human rights in the province, the execution of international human rights laws needs to be implemented. It is required to ensure good governance, peace and stability to ensure viable environment, provision of sustainable and quality education and reduce poverty. Unless the favourable environment be provided to the people at large, human rights violations may be continued. This paper attempts to know about the factors affecting human rights in the province and present some solid recommendations and policy options.
The black hole existence and formation have been an unsettled debate, from inception, inviting the attention to look into the matter closely. Despite myriads of evidences for existence, the mathematical possibility of black hole-from Schwarzschild anticipation till the completion of physical structure- continues to be contested among theorists. Various aspects of mathematics involved in theoretical creation of black hole are exposed to question. Also, black holes' overwhelmingly capricious physical nature adds to curiosity of opponents to challenge the underlying theory as doubtful because of its being source of astounding outcomes. In this investigation we aimed at highlighting the conceptual elements in mathematics of black holes that breed the controversy. The reasons that permit the divided view over single physical entity are required to be pointed out in order to bring betterment into the way we run our mathematical investigation. The reasoning supports possibility of creation and existence of black holes along with physical and experimental evidences, would not be undermined here in order to restrict the investigation at finding the prime responsible elements in mathematical track that have potential to bring forth living disputes. The mathematical assumptions that serve as authentication to employ certain mathematical procedure to discuss formation of black holes and the role of mathematics in forming its intuition will be investigated conceptually and possibly philosophically, to reveal the anomalies: yet many other schemes and arguments may exist. This discussion is not aimed at disapproving the existence of black hole but the basic purpose is to reveal how Black Hole's mathematics remains controversial despite assumed evidence for existence
