JHELUM:
Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Sunday that a nation cannot progress without knowing and analysing its history.
He made these remarks at the inauguration of a heritage trail at the historical Nandana Fort in Jhelum, as part of the Al-Beruni Radius Tourism Project. Our archaeologists did little, in fact, nothing, to preserve our heritage, the premier said. Even Moenjo Dero and Harappa were discovered by foreigners, he lamented.
