Director General of the South Asian Strategic Stability Institute is not something that would be expected to have an article on English Wikipedia, unless meet GNG. Search produce some namecheck type of press coverage but doesn't produce any coverage and substantial information in the independent RS about the person either so fails to meet basic GNG.. Therefore I can't see any significance, Saqib (talk) 10:00, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Keep Expanded the article and updated all 4 existing references and added 2 new references from Dawn (newspaper) and Pakistan Today (newspaper).

This article now has 2 additional references from independent sources: It's a stub article with likely further expansion in the future. Ngrewal1 (talk) 22:07, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Centre for Security and Energy Studies (Russia)
 * The News International (newspaper)
 * Still does not pass GNG. the article has existed since 2013 without ever having any better sources added. --Saqib (talk) 05:00, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
 * True, it needed additional citations at the time of its nomination on 30 May 2018. Now, after some expansion, this stub article is sourced to 3 independent Pakistani newspapers and a Russian website. Anyone of us can improve it further now? Ngrewal1 (talk) 14:03, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The thing is one need to establish the WP:N first. So far, I can't find a single source which can demonstrate that the subject merit a stand-alone entry here on WP. --Saqib (talk) 15:31, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment Removed all unsourced 'original research' content from the article today. Removed allegations content against her by a single news reporter, yet to be proven in a court of law. Non-encyclopedic content (gossip?). It is noteworthy that she continues to hold her prominent positions in the government institutions as well as at the prestigious Pakistani universities and no action has been initiated against her by them since the allegations in 2016.
