New Pakistan is continuing its series of publishing those articles that Pakistan’s mainstream media was forced not to publish.

Sen Khattak’s son Khushal Khattak posted this on twitter today “The Nation did not publish my father @a_siab’s article today for “Namalum Reasons”. Censorship continues. Shame on all those who remain silent.”
