Imran Khan: Silence Behind Bars
The room is bare—its cold cement floor echoing with silence. The faded blue-and-white walls carry the scent of years of confinement, perhaps even defiance. A modest bed stands in the corner, neatly made, its thin mattress betraying any hope for comfort. A pedestal fan hums lazily in the background, struggling against the summer heat. On the wall hangs a television, its black screen a lifeless rectangle above the sink and tap. Clothes hang on the side, dry and plain. A desk bears the weight of a few essentials—bottled water, toiletries, and scattered papers. But in the middle of this stark simplicity sits a man, dressed in black, engrossed in a book larger than life.

Quintus Fabius Pictor
In the rich narrative of Roman history, where prominent generals, emperors, and senators frequently take center stage, the more subdued contributions of early historians can often be overlooked. However, among these intellectual trailblazers, Quintus Fabius Pictor emerges as a crucial figure. As the first historian of Rome, he established the groundwork for Latin historiography, significantly shaping the Roman perception of their history and influencing the style and format of historical writing for future generations. Although much of his work exists only in fragments and citations, his impact is profoundly ingrained in the fabric of Roman cultural heritage.

“I Was Poor, But My Dreams Were Rich”
My name is Zulekha. I was born in a small slum where there were no bright streets, and life had no easy paths. My childhood was spent under the shadow of hunger, poverty, and deprivation. We didn’t have a home of our own, and there was never enough food on the table. My mother worked as a seamstress, and I helped her from a young age. Going to school wasn’t even an option—survival always came first.
