It was renamed from the Illustrated Weekly of Pakistan in 1970, which was published from 1948–1969.[5][6][1]
It was Pakistan's most widely read monthly magazine, providing in-depth analyses, investigative reporting and an extensive coverage of current affairs. The magazine enjoyed a wide circulation abroad, particularly among academics and Pakistani expatriate communities in the Middle East, United Kingdom and North America.
It stopped publication after its last issue in July 2019.[3]
