Jinnah Institute

Aligarh Muslim University Vice Chancellor Tariq Mansoor today met Home Minister Rajnath Singh to discuss issues concerning the premier academic institution, engulfed in controversy over a portrait of Muhammad Ali Jinnah on its premises, an official said.

My theme of the lecture was carefully chosen: ''Separated at birth or separated by birth: the story of South Asian Twins''. The main thrust was to question Pakistan's unwarranted claim regarding Kashmir.

Text of speech delivered by Salman Khurshid on November 12 to Jinnah Institute's distinguished speaker series in Islamabad.

For more than 1,000 years, Parsis have thrived in South Asia but an ageing population and emigration to the West driven by instability in Pakistan means the tiny community of "fire worshippers" could soon be consigned to the country's history books.

After slipping into the roles of Urdu poet-lyricist Sahir Ludhianvi and Maulana Abdul Kalam Azad respectively on stage, thespian actor Tom Alter now aspires to enact the roles of two stalwarts of Partition, Jawaharlal Nehru and Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

As talks of a rift between his government and the military gathers pace, Pakistan's Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani today said "no institution can be a state within a state" and warned that "conspiracies" are being hatched to "pack up" his democratically-elected government.
