About this issue
This issue is very special to me! My father-in-law Air Chief Marshal Idris Hasan Latif, whom I called Baba, was a man of honour and his word. He was the most honest and principled human being I have ever known. He could be very tough when he felt something was wrong and he disliked people who were corrupt. But at the same time he was very kind and generous to those in need. His wisdom, I will miss immensely. When I asked him once why he didn’t accept or pursue the post of the President of India, his reply was that he would not be able to justify his duties with the changing politics at the time; and he also wanted to spend as much time as possible with his family, especially with his ailing mother. Baba did not want to live after his wife Begum Bilkees passed away. He passed away barely six months after she did. The bond between both husband and wife was truly one of magnetic force, and as time came one found their way back to the other.It’s truly my honour to present this cover story on this patriotic hero of the nation.
