The impact is mutidimensional because while at one hand this means &#8216;brain drain&#8217; on other it also means increased capacity of the individuals, inflow of capital and cultural interactions. This trend has given rise to a services business, involving handling of all affairs related to immigration. Hundreds of consultancy\u00a0related business ventures\u00a0have opened up across Pakistan and keep on sending thousands of people out of the country for, both, education and &#8216;settling&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><strong>Meritocracy Consultancy Services<\/strong>,\u00a0providing &#8216;immigration solutions&#8217; is one of these organizations. It\u00a0is operating in Australia,\u00a0having its head office in Sydney, but recently it has also opened an office in Karachi Pakistan,\u00a0sensing the increasing opportunities. <strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">The good thing about the people running meritocracy consultancy services is that they have offered their &#8216;free consultancy services for the Ismaili students belonging to Northern Areas (<em>Gilgit &#8211; Baltistan<\/em>) and Chitral&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">Sadif Judaani, the managing director, has pledged this offer in a letter sent to Pamir Times.
