Nasreddin Murat Khan: The Russian architect who built the National Monument of Pakistan

in ActnEarn4 years ago

Pakistan, the second largest state in the Indian subcontinent, has never been politically close to the former Soviet Union and its successor, the Russian Federation. As a result, the level of interaction between Pakistan and Russia has never been very high. In 1962, there were only 56 Soviets in Pakistan.But despite this negative state of Russian-Pakistani relations, a former Russian / Soviet citizen has made a significant contribution to Pakistan's history. In fact, from the construction of Pakistan's national monument 'Minar-e-Pakistan' and the famous cricket ground 'Gaddafi Stadium' to the expansion of 'Wah Ordnance Factory', the first arms factory in independent Pakistan - everything is the brainchild of a former Russian citizen.
