But if we’re comparing this to other situations of the past, how is it that Coach Pitino is the only one to draw these titles? Ulis finished with arguably his best game this season, producing 21 points, eight assists and one turnover.

Senior PPP leader Sherry Rehman said peaceful relations between Islamabad and New Delhi are necessary for the development and progress of both countries. India’s corporate sector, which played a significant role in Modi’s election as prime minister, has been eager to grasp business opportunities in Afghanistan and the region beyond.
