New report, old realities: Balochistan remains under Pakistan’s brutal siege
Balochistan is a state where Pakistan has done violence of the highest level. This assertion, backed by years of field reports, survivor testimonies and human-rights investigations, is once again reaffirmed by the most recent October 2025 findings released by Paank, one of the most active organisations documenting enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings in the region.
Faiz's Sorrow, Kierkegaard's Doubt: Did Kashmir Miss The Point Of Eid?
(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) A sheep seller weighs a sacrificial animal in Srinagar | KO File Photo By Abid Bhat Last week, Eid ul Azha drifted through Kashmir, a valley where faith weaves with whispers of ancient winds.

The Silent Geometry Of A Father's Love In Kashmir
(MENAFN- Kashmir Observer) Syed Mehdi Mosvi I've often thought about what it means to be a father. It's not a title you simply inherit; it's something you quietly become, moment by moment.

He didn't just live in time, he echoed beyond it. From his earliest days, Agha Baqir seemed woven from the very threads of the unseen.
