Specially for the peopel who are away from their origin find it as a connecting plateform with thier origin.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">Unfortunately, some of the contributors, ofcourse with fake identities, attribute writings to themselves which are actually the work of authorities on the subject. The particular article I want to draw your attention towards is &#8220;The Walking Economist&#8221; by some one Sher Bahadur. Who ever is he, has violated all the norms of writing and research. This is an article actually written in &#8220;Economic Survey&#8221;. You can cross check it on web pages : <a href=\"http:\/\/www.economicsforeveryone.com\/files\/uploads\/Economics_for_Everyone_Chap1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">www.economicsforeveryone.com\/files\/uploads\/Economics_for_Everyone_Chap1.pdf<\/a> .

IT IS DISHONESTY. Please check the reliabilty of writer before publishing it. It will save Pamir Times from many hindrances.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\"><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\"><strong>Editor&#8217;s note<\/strong><\/span>: Dear Sher Baz Khan, Thank you for identifying this serious issue.
