So they are stressing on the point that the number of applications has gone up drastically and that is by the number of a staff that they had was not matching up to that level. Also, because allow staff during the cove, it period was let go of considering that they were not required. The numbers of applications was not as high Secondly of for Business piece has.

Internationals for the former Pak president and the former army chief Pervez Musharraf died at the age of 79. He was in a self imposed exile in Dubai, where he was undergoing treatment for a rare illness, but showed no indication of recovery from taking part in a coup in 1999 to being president. For around seven years in Pakistan, he has lived a life of many controversies, including being seen as an architect of Kargil war. Meanwhile, the Congress, a Shashi Tharoor, has tweeted Pervez Musharraf, former Pakistani president, dies of rare disease. Once and implacable foe of India, he became a real force of peace from 2000 to 2007. I met him annually in those days at the UN, found him to be smart, engaging and clear in a strategic thinking rest in peace. He was known as the architect of the guardian war, the man who ordered his soldiers to enter India to cut off Lay from Srinagar in the war that followed in the summer of 1999 Pakistani soldiers whose presence he denied were decimated in the high mountains of Cargill. It was a catastrophic military failure for Musharraf, who had pushed forward with the plan, keeping his prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, mostly in the dark. Almost unbelievably, two years after Kargil, Musharraf emerged stronger than ever. Main issue, or whatever happened at Kargil was the issue of Kashmir, which is in the limelight now, and it has brought two for one major issue. That Pakistan India cannot go to war must not go to war. Therefore, disputes need to be resolved. This is the international concern. It was as president that Musharraf came to India in July 2001. Would the architect of Kargil changes tribes to bring peace between the nuclear neighbours? Mood Atal Behari Vajpayee's leap of faith his second after the Lahore summit of January 1999. Be successful. An entire generation watched every moment of the summit with the prayer for hope at peace. All of us been impressed and taken a message that you're a soldier is come here. You know what it feels like to fight a war and that you have a great concern for the people of Kashmir and the will of the people of Kashmir. You condemn the security forces in Kashmir and some of the actions against civilians or about innocent people at a bus stop and a militants bomb killing them you're concerned for the will of the people of Kashmir is understandable. You're a soldier and you have been elected in Pakistan. So without the will of the people of Pakistan, how are you so concerned about the will of the people of somewhere else. If you look at any freedom struggle anywhere around the world, it's history is so much of suffering of innocent and that is applying in Kashmir also. Unfortunately, Agra was a disastrous failure. The negotiations broke down and collapsed. For many around the world, the true nature of the Pakistani deep state and it's linked with terror progressively became much more clear. Hammou, Janine Lie Puree Dona See Hamlet, Taliban, Co crane, Tamara, Osama bin Laden and Frontier Province. But the general kept fighting. He declared a state of emergency. In 2007. His soldiers entered the Supreme Court of Pakistan. Arrested judges were detained. Television channels went off air. On the 18th of August 2008, Pervez Musharraf announced his resignation. Five days leader He left for exile in London. Running a country mean only two things. Welfare of the people and development of the state. Period. What didn't I do? Tell me one thing on these two issues, So people got bogged down in peripheral issues which do not really which I mean you have to understand what is the gauge of deciding what is the quality of standard over leader how well or how badly somebody has governed, which has passed remarks of one odd incident where it is book to your Red Mosque or any assassination. These are one issue you don't judge eight years performance on one issue. But the Musharraf chapter in Pakistan's politics didn't end there. Like so many other leaders, Musharraf, two states to return from exile. He had vowed to do this his goal to seek the presidency in 2013. When he returned to Pakistan on a chartered Emirates flight in March 2013, he delivered a short public speech at Karachi airport. Two days later, the general was arrested on charges related to the arrest of judges which he had ordered when he was president. Back in 2007. Under house arrest, Musharraf faced a deluge of cases. In December 2019, a special court in Pakistan sentenced General Pervez Musharraf in absentia to death for suspending Pakistan's constitution in 2007, a symbolic order since Dubai doesn't have an extradition treaty with Pakistan. Musharraf challenged the order and on January 2020 the Lahore High Court annulled the death sentence and held the earlier trial to be unconstitutional. But the general was never to return to Pakistan, with his health progressively weakening a rare condition amyloidosis had caused his organs to malfunction.
