The study discusses the climate of Balochistan with a special focus on the variation of weather conditiontaking into account the mean monthly precipitation, temperature, humidity, atmospheric circulation, air pressure,evapotranspiration and solar energy covering the time duration of 1931-2020 (normal data). The physical barriers thatbring variations in the climate of Balochistan contain geographical location, ocean, geomorphology, land use, naturalvegetation, and continental extent. Based on precipitation, the province has been divided into two main regions that arearid and semi-arid, while the temperature zones are hot, warm, mild and cool. The southern and eastern part of theprovince receives heavy rain in the summers (monsoon), whereas it is from the western depressions during the winterseason. Balochistan experiences four rainy seasons in winter (cold), pre-monsoon season (warm), monsoon season(hot), and post-monsoon season (mild). Owing to tropical (coastal) and sub-tropical continental characteristics, the areafamiliarizes two foremost seasons namely winter and summer. The summers of the area long for 5 months in hilly areaswhile 7 months in continental plains and coastal regions; whereas, winters cover five months in the plains and sevenmonths in the mountains. Based on the appropriation and fluctuation in climate constituents, Balochistan has beenclassified into two main, 6 meso, and 9 microclimate and weather zones. According to Global Climate Risk Index,2021, Pakistan has been ranked at 8th in the list of top ten global climate high-risk countries, which are exposed to theongoing climate change and requires attention to resolve the issue.

Purpose: Negotiations between two parties always have newsworthiness. Results of the negotiations can be strongly influenced by the media coverage. Pakistan’s government was also involved in peace negotiation with Tahrik e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) during January and February 2014. It was the most discussing issue in Pakistani media at that time. The aim of this research is to analyze the editorial policy of three Pakistani English language newspapers; Dawn, Nation and The News to check their favorable or unfavorable behavior regarding peace talks during January and February 2014. Design/Methodology/Approach: Agenda setting, priming and farming theories were used in this study. Qualitative content analysis method was used in this study to analyze the editorial policy of these three newspapers. Findings: The results revealed that all these three newspapers gave significant coverage to the peace talks issue but Nation gave more coverage to the issue. Findings also revealed that Dawn and The News, most of the time showed neutral behavior but tilted towards unfavorable position regarding peace talks. Nation showed strongly unfavorable behavior regarding peace talks. Implications/Originality/Value: So it is concluded that all these three newspapers were mostly against the peace talks and government and media were not on the same page on the issue of peace talks.
Purpose: The nature and extent of religious and social challenges posed by the madaris have been studied by scholars on a micro level, but there is a need of methodologically investigating of the problems on a macro and global levels by using a multi-disciplinary and collaborative approach to readdress these issues. The purpose of this research paper is to find out the role of for causing militancy in Pakistan and to recommend measures/strategies for de-radicalization in Pakistan. Design/Methodology/Approach: Agenda setting, priming and farming theories were used in this study.
