Re: Pakistan Civil Awards
Sitara-e-Imtiaz were conferred on Irfan Siddiquie and Ata-ul-Haq Qasmi in the fields of journalism and literature respectively.
The two gentlemen were rewarded for their ‘outstanding contribution’ in their respective fields.
Ifran Siddique has been a speech writer of Nawaz Sharif for a long period of time. He has been recently appointed as Special Adviser to the PM on National Affairs. Irfan Siddique was the commander of the army of the writers who took on the PTI with vigour and valour. A cursory look at the list of columns Mr Siddique has written since 2008 reveals the entire gamut of his realm. He is mostly found either eulogizing Sharifs or blasting his rivals.

Ata-ul-Haq Qasmi is known as Nawaz Sharif’s courtier. He was previously posted as an ambassador of Pakistan in Norway and Thailand during Nawaz Sharif’s premiership from 1997 to 1999. He does not trail far behind Irfan Siddiqui when it comes to PTI-bashing. Given the services he redered to Sharif, his third posting as an ambassador seems imminent.
Some of Ata-ul-Haq Qasmi’s work:
