This document presents a proposed National Gender Policy Framework for Pakistan. It outlines that while Islam grants women many rights, Pakistani society and laws historically discriminated against women due to Hindu cultural influences and colonial rule. Now nearly half of Pakistan's population faces discrimination, so a comprehensive gender policy is needed to promote women's economic and social participation and protect their rights. Previous government initiatives aimed to address issues like marriage, family, dowry, women's rights, but a holistic policy is required to tackle all gender issues systematically and ensure women's equal rights and opportunities.
More than half of the women in India are married before the legal minimum age of 18. By contrast, men in the same age group get married at a median age of 23.4 years. Sixteen percent of men aged 20-49 are married by age 18 and 28 percent by age 20.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Policy brief
National Gender Policy Framework of Pakistan
Presented on 8th
March, 2022.
Introduction:
Pakistan is an Islamic state and all its laws are according to the teaching of Islam. In Islam female are
granted each and every type of rights that include to get education same as the boys, get a decent living
standard, financial and economic empowerment, inheritance right, right to own property, right to be
protection etc. The region of Pakistan was earlier part of subcontinent while living long with Hindu
people and under the colonial rule we adopt lot of things from Hindu culture, that really deprive the
female from their basic right even. Now in Pakistan we observe a lot of discrimination against females.
There is a dire need to device policies to correct this phenomenon because female are approximately 49
percent of Pakistan total population, if they are being discriminated and may not included into the labor
workforce we will soon face very difficult economic and financial time.
In our whole region, we have patriarchal society. The women are mostly dependent on male family
members. In their childhood and adolescent age, they are dependent on their fathers or brothers and
after marriage, they become the responsibility of their husbands and after that they are dependent on
their sons or nephews. Well being of a female directly related to their male member of the family if they
are well off they will live a prospers live if not they will suffer too.
World scenario of Gender related policies:
Evolution of Gender related laws in Pakistan:
In Pakistan although up till the emergence of national gender policy framework we don’t have any
comprehensive policy for minimizing the gender gap, eradicating gender discrimination and bringing the
female into mainstreaming, but still we can see many initiatives from the government and other
institution that perform this task for this under privileged group of society.
I thoroughly try to explore the history of Pakistani laws and policies to find out all the initiatives by the
government to know what steps and measures were taken in the way of gender policy. As initially when
Pakistan was made we don’t have our own constitution, therefore we were following the 1935 Indian
act which contain the Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act 1939 was followed. Then in 1955 Commission
on Marriage and Family Laws was made which remain enacted till 1961. The Muslim Family Laws
2. Ordinance 1961 was being passed to look into the matters of family this law was amended according to
the need of time in 2015 . To resolve the matter of family through conciliation government approved
The Conciliation Courts Ordinance 1961. After that West Pakistan Family Courts Act 1964 was there to
perform the same task. One of the great curse in our society is dowry to the girl at the time of their
marriage, In 1976 to stop the burden of parent due to which girls are considered as a burden
themselves by there family, the Dowry and Bridal Gifts (Restriction) Act was passed and enacted. For
the protection of the right of the female Pakistani Women Rights Committee was formed in 1975.
Commission on the Status of Women was formed in 1980 which remain enforced till 1988. Pakistan
National Commission on the Status of Women was came into being in 2000 for the protection of right s
of the women in Pakistan. Local Government Ordinance 2001 was established to look into the matters
on local government level, and it was being amended in 2013 & 2019. There is a severe issue of human
trafficking all around the globe so as in Pakistan for its Prevention & Control, Human trafficking
Ordinance 2002 was passed and promulgated in Pakistan. There is another issue of honor killing in our
tribal areas, in Baluchistan and in interior Sindh due to which every year number of girls are killed. To
stop this honor killing Honor amendment Bill 2004 was passed. There are some other laws like The
Protection of Women Act, 2006, Prevention of Anti-Women Practices Act, 2011, Acid Control and Acid
Crime Prevention Act 2011 which was amended in 2014 and again in 2018. The most recent
development for the protection of women is guarding them against the high rate of cyber crimes
Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act, 2016 was passed to protect women in case of any cyber
blackmailing. In the recent times we see lots of pedophilia act against kids under 16 or even 10 years for
their protection Zainab Alert, response and recovery act 2019 is the most recent development for the
safety of the girls. (1973 constitution of Pakistan and amendments)
Need for the Gender policy framework:
From the above given facts I observe that since 1947 small steps were taken for the protection of the
rights of the female, but there was need to device a full-fledged policy which may look at the mater in
holistic way not in bits and pieces. According to the facts and figures there is a big gap in our
constitution and law related to gender policy. Although initiatives were taken but they were not enough
that can cater all issues related to gender. Some laws and commission were only for a small time and
they evaporated with the end of term or demise of the government and were not long lasting either.
There was a dire need to formulate a policy which may not only talks about the protection of female but
it also look towards their economic, financial, social, legal, political, cultural, health and safety rights etc.
that will give all legal rights to women of Pakistan. If we look at the global scenario female are facing
continuous discrimination and domestic violence in on an increase not only in Pakistan but all around
the globe.
According to Severini et.al(2018) gender discrimination do prevail in European countries as well,
females are not included into the economic mainstreaming due to which there GDP is showing low
number or if women may include into the labor workforce that may boost the economy to a large
extend.
3. Despite efforts made by governments globally, women
and girls contnue to be subjected to discriminaton
and violence and are denied full realizaton of their
rights and potentals. Inadequate resources for
implementaton of acton plans around gender equality
is a signifcant challenge confronted by countries. The
key challenge hampering the implementaton and
monitoring of gender equality is the lack of adequate
gender-sensitve data. Absence of data globally may be
atributed to lack of prioritzing the goal as such
