1: Discoveries of Pakistani Scientist:The first Prime Minister of Pakistan, Liaqat Ali Khan made various reforms to initiate improvement in higher education and scientific research.The real growth in science in Pakistan occurred after the establishment of the Higher education Commission in 2002 which supported science in a big way and also became the major sponsor of the Pakistan Academy of Sciences under the leadership of Prof. Atta-ur-Rahman.Some of the most renowned and famous Pakistani Scientists are:Abdus Salam[1]:Winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics (1979) for his electroweak theory that combines weak nuclear force and electromagnetic forces.Dr Abdus Salam is the most highly decorated scientist of Pakistan, honored with most state awards including the Sitara-e-Pakistan (Star of Pakistan) in 1959.Atta-ur-Rahman[2]:Winner of the UNESCO Science Prize for pioneering contributions in natural product chemistry in 1999. He is the first scientist from the Islamic world to have won this prizeRiazuddin:Winner of Einstein Award (2000) for his contribution in theoretical physics, notably the contribution in neutrinos. Riazuddin, pupil student of Salam, remains the most state decorated scientist of Pakistan with receiving state honors and international prizes, second to Abdus Salam.Prof. Dr. Mohammad Aslam Khan Khalil:He modified scientific understanding of “global climate change”. He also identified methane’s role as a powerful greenhouse gas, tracing its increase in human activities. His work has contributed to the Kyoto Protocol to limit the emissions of greenhouse gases.Dr Naweed I Syed:He is the first scientist who managed to ‘connect brain cells to a silicon chip’. Currently he is a Professor and Head Department of Cell Biology & Anatomy at the University of Calgary, Canada. He was also featured in Time Magazine.Shaukat Hameed :As the director of lab, he began to develop the fuel techniques, and have done the preliminary work on the different models. He developed the techniques and methods to work on the image processing methods. He was also the was part of the small team of scientists who had central role in the development of the cooling device.Dr Samar Mubarakmand:Mubarakmand was assigned to Ishfaq Ahmad’s Nuclear Physics Division where he took charge to carry out the calculations in implosion method, and mathematical multiplication involved in nuclear fission. He provided the technical assistance to the engineers there. He has been associated with the country’s space program where he largely contributed his research in computational fluid dynamics, aerodynamics, and fluid physics.Dr Nergis Mavalvala:Mavalvala was among the team of scientists who, for the first time, observed ripples in the fabric of spacetime called gravitational waves. It was announced to the public on 11 February 2016. The detection confirmed a major prediction of Albert Einstein's 1915 general theory of relativity.Pervaiz Hoodbhoy: [3][4]Hoodbhoy provided the brief mathematical proofs and description to understand, logically, the subject of Sitter space— a scalar curvature in general theory of relativity.At National Center for Physics, Hoodbhoy conducted research on different aspects of particle physics, and pioneered studies in modern physics and its extension to mathematical and nuclear physics. In 2006, Hoodbhoy published a brief mathematical description of Generalized Parton Distributions. In 2007, Hoodbhoy re-published the work of Jens Lyng Peterson the Maldacena conjecture (a conjectured equivalence between a string theory and gravity defined on one space, and a quantum field theory without gravity defined by one or less dimension) where he contributed mathematically to the theory.2: Pakistani Startups, Inventions and Discoveries:Fertilizers With Non-Explosive Materials:In 2013, a Pakistani firm invented a new formula to make fertilizers that cannot be converted into bomb-making materials. The firm, Fatima Fertilizer, had succeeded in making non-lethal alternatives to ammonium nitrate, a key ingredient in the fertilizers it makes. Fertilizers with ammonium nitrate, however, can easily be converted into bomb-making ingredients.This invention was praised by the Pentagon. “Such a long-term solution would be a true scientific breakthrough,” US Army Lieutenant General Michael Barbero, the head of the Pentagon’s Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization.Human Development Index:Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq [5]devised the Human Development Index in 1990 in order to move the focus of development economics to people centered policies from national income accounting.Noval Cancer cell detection Method and Device:Dr Samir Iqbal developed a novel cancer cell detection method that improves early diagnosis through a tool that tracks cellular behavior in real time using nano textured walls that mimic layers of body tissue.Link: Electrical engineers develop device to diagnose cancer rapidly at the cellular level, improve early detectionLavatory That Transforms Human Waste into Charcoal, Minerals, And Clean Water:Pakistani researcher at Loughborough University, Sohail Khan designed a lavatory that converts human waste into biological charcoal, which can be burned, and clean water.Link: https://www.ait.ac.at/ueber-das-ait/researcher-profiles/?tx_aitprofile_pi1%5Bname%5D=Khan-SohailThe Ommaya Reservoir:[6]Developed by Ayub K.

It was made for MS-DOS operating systems. The virus used to infect the boot sector of storage media formatted with the DOS File Allocation Table (FAT) file system. This virus was suppose to stop and track illegal copies of their disk.Read: Brain (computer virus) - WikipediaThe SMB Probe:As far as dangerous energy sources go, nuclear power has to be one of, if not the most dangerous of all. Since it’s creation, nuclear power has created multiple disasters around the globe, causing many deaths and toxic environments. In an attempt to counteract this problem, Sultan Bashiruddin Mehmood created the SMB Probe which is thought to reduce the chance of a nuclear disaster by a significant amount. The SMB Probe’s job is to keep power plant operations under control and check whether there are any heavy water leakages, thereby reducing the possibility of accidents.Water Generator:Rehan Aziz Farooqi, an engineer from Swat, invented a generator that can not only run on water, but can also allow any engine – whether it’s diesel, gas or petrol – to run on water as well. The generator works by separating the hydrogen and oxygen found in water and converting them into viable energy source. As hydrogen is extremely explosive however, the generator’s inventor wants to ensure there are no dangers before making it available to the public.Community Sanitation:For many third-world countries, the risk of contracting deadly diseases due to poor sanitation is a huge problem. In an attempt to lower these risks, Professor of Sustainable Infrastructure at Loughborough University Sohail Khan invented a lavatory that transforms human waste into minerals that can be used to enrich soil. The facility also processes water to ensure it is clean and consumable.The World’s cheapest Electricity:Shahzaib Hussain, a seventeen-year-old from Quetta, created a device that can be used to reproduce electricity when he was only in Grade 11. The device was first proven to work when Shahzaib managed to light 44 LED lights that would usually require 3 Watts with only 1.5 Watts that were fed through his machine. The device is currently still in it’s prototype stage, but could lead to huge developments in the near future.Pleuroperitoneal Shunt:Syed Amjab Hussein, a doctor from Peshawar, invented the shunt. This surgically implanted catheter transports fluid from a pleural space into the peritoneal cavity where it is absorbed, relieving breathlessness in patients suffering from cancer. It is used to treat malignant pleural effusions, basically a condition where cancer causes fluid to gather in the space between tissues(pleura) lining the lungs and chest, making it hard to breathe. S.A. Hussein’s work has led him to being inducted into the Medical Mission Hall of Fame.25 year old Scientist part in Gravitational Waves:Imran Khan from Quetta has been known to have worked with a team of scientists at Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) that recorded gravitational waves for the first time in history.Read: 25-year-old scientist from Quetta took part in discovery of gravitational waves - The Express Tribune3: Politics, Sports, Culture and Art:First Female PM Of an Islamic Country:A bit controversial figure (and for a good reason), but proved that a woman could stand up to a military dictator and be democratically elected to the top leadership position in a conservative Muslim country.ex World No. 1 professional Squash player:Jahangir Khan, During his career he won the World Open six times and the British Open a record ten times.

The Government of Pakistan provided diplomatic passports to prominent members of the Algerian government in exile for their foreign travel, such as Ahmed Ben Bella.Pakistan's firm support to Algerian cause angered France which expected Pakistan to remain aloof of this affairs especially since Pakistan was signatory to SEATO and CENTO.Economic Plan of Seoul:A delegation from South Korea visited Pakistan in 1960, and discussed the economic development plan of that of Karachi for Seoul. Karachi (largest & coastal city of Pakistan) was seen as an economic role model around the world, and there was much praise for the way its economy was progressing. Many countries sought to emulate Pakistan's economic planning strategy and it has been learnt that one of them was South Korea, who replicated the second "Five-Year Plan" and World Financial Center in Seoul was designed and modeled after Karachi. It is also said tht Dr. Mahbub ul Haq a renowned Pakistani econmist and the originator of the Human Development Index (HDI), gave five year plan to South Korea which helped South Korea to progress rapidly.Link: The Seoul TimesPakistan and Armenia Relations:Due to Pakistan’s close relation with Turkey and now Azerbaijan, Pakistan is the only Country that does not recognise Armenia an official state and the very few Countries that recognise Khojlay massacre as Genocide of Azeri people.Pakistan help to Azerbaijan:Pakistan supported the Azerbaijan right to self determination in 1988, and was the first Countries with Romania and Turkey to recognize independent Azerbaijan.Pakistan Army supported Azerbaijan during the Grabakh war and have vowed to continue its support. Pakistan and Azerbaijan are also UnOfficial Allies.Pakistan Rs120 million Aid to West Germany in 1963:The situation is totally opposite now. By 1953 Germany had debts for rehabilitation and reconstruction. Pakistan was a prosperous economy, and for that Germany seek Pakistan’s help.Sagar Veena:Raza Aslam started working on this variation of the Veena, called the Sagar Veena, in 1970. His daughter who helped him test it, is currently the only person who has complete mastery over it. So what is Sagar Veena (Ocean Chordophone)?

Allegedly executed and supervised by General Javed Nasir, the program distributed and coordinated the systematic supply of arms to various groups of Bosnian mujahideen during the war.The ISI Bosnian contingent was organized with financial assistance provided by Saudi Arabia.Grand Mosque Seizure of Mecca:The Grand Mosque of Mecca’s seizure occurred during November and December 1979 when extremist insurgents calling for the overthrow of the House of Saud took over Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. The insurgents declared that the Mahdi (the "redeemer of Islam") had arrived in the form of one of their leaders – Mohammed Abdullah al-Qahtani – and called on Muslims to obey him. For nearly two weeks Saudi Special Forces assisted by Pakistani commandos known as Special Services Group (SSG) fought pitched battles to reclaim the compound.50 of the Pakistan’s Elite Commandos or SSG, were sent to Mecca, which carried out the raid in the Holy mosque and successfully eliminated the terrorists.Battle of Mogadishu (1993):On 3 October 1993, Task Force Ranger of the United States of America began an operation that involved traveling from their compound on the city's outskirts to the center with the aim of capturing the leaders of the Habr Gidr clan, led by Mohamed Farrah Aidid. The assault force consisted of nineteen aircraft, twelve vehicles (including nine Humvees), and 160 men. The operation was intended to last no longer than one hour.Shortly after the assault began, Somali militia and armed civilian fighters shot down two UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters. The subsequent operation to secure and recover the crews of both helicopters extended the initial operation into an overnight standoff and daylight rescue operation on 4 October. The battle resulted in 19 deaths, 73 wounded and one helicopter pilot captured among the U.S. raid party and rescue forces. At least one Pakistani soldier and one Malaysian soldier were killed as part of the rescue forces on day two of the battle.
