My miniature was recently exhibited at the international conference, 'Developing Indigenous South Asian Epistemes for International Relations & Strategic Studies,' hosted by the Faculty of Aerospace and Strategic Studies (FASS) at Air University.

Receiving my souvenir from Dr. Rabia Akhtar who is an inspiration for many and outlined the Cold War epistemes of Strategic Studies in an extensive manner at #FASSINTCONF24 with FES Pakistan

There are known knowns; there are known unknowns; But there are also unknown unknowns...The unknowns must become 'known knowns'....
