Death of legendary editor

06 Aug, 2014

Apropos Business Recorder editorial "Majid Nizami: the end of an era", there is no doubt about the fact that with the demise of Majid Nizami, chief of the Nawa-i-Waqt group of publications, has come to end an important era in Pakistan's history of journalism. The editorials that he penned meticulously in his professional career spanning well over half a century, would always be treated as a rich source of references for the students of politics in particular.
He was no revisionist because he pursued his professional objectives with a firm resolve without seeking to provide a justification for a retreat from a position that he held till his death. Yes, Majid Sahib will be missed as an upright editor who always wrote and said the right thing under the most trying circumstances. No doubt, his death is a profound loss.
