New York, USA: Members of the Sikh community gathered outside the United Nations headquarters in New York to protest against India in response to the recent killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

During the demonstration, protesters chanted slogans condemning Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and called for the perpetrators of Hardeep Singh Nijjar's murder to face severe punishment.

The assassination of Hardeep Singh Nijjar has reignited the Khalistan movement, leading to heightened Sikh protests on a global scale.

Meanwhile, in the wake of Sikh leader Hardeep Singh's killing in Canada, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the United States has issued warnings to Sikh leaders in the country, cautioning them about potential assassination threats.

It's worth noting that Hardeep Singh was recently murdered in Canada, and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau publicly accused India of being involved in the assassination.

According to reports from The New York Times, American intelligence agencies played a role in investigating Hardeep Singh Nijjar's murder, and based on their information, Canada concluded that India was linked to the Sikh leader's killing.

Islamabad: Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) is grappling with a severe financial crisis, prompting the institution to consider divesting its core business and physical assets to settle its mounting liabilities.

The government is contemplating the creation of two separate entities – one for core operational activities and another for asset maintenance.

Additionally, a holding company will oversee all remaining assets.

PIA's accumulated losses have now surpassed Rs743 billion, with some insiders suggesting that this figure does not even include outstanding tax dues of Rs50 billion to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR).

As the restructuring process commences, the government is concurrently exploring privatization options.

PIA has already engaged a consultant to oversee its restructuring and has begun soliciting applications.

Under the proposed restructuring, PIA will be split into two entities.

The first entity will handle core operations, including operating PIA aircraft on various routes. After restructuring, this entity will be privatized.

A holding company will be formed to manage physical assets and liabilities.

Government sources have indicated that the government's financial guarantee to PIA has been capped at Rs263 billion, and it recently secured guarantees of Rs17-18 billion from domestic banks.
