Answer to this quiz is here.
Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

He is Sahibzada Yaqoob Khan. He was commander of the eastern command in East Pakistan. He was replaced by Lt. General A. K. Niazi when he refused military operation there. I think that he is the only retired general in Pakistan who does not write his rank before his name because he was demoted to major general.
He has also served as the foreign minister of Pakistan twice. Sometimes back he was heading Aga Khan Foundation in Pakistan.
He belongs to the family of Nawab of Rampur. I saw this photo in the book written by Jahan Ara Habib.
He is definitel a learned man.
He is probably General Tauqeer zia

Thank you so very much. I am a huge fan of Sahibzada sahib. But there is so little about him. There are some glimpses in his sister’s memoirs and here and there and that’s all. TFS.
Yea ‘Sahibzada Yaqub Ali khan’.
Sahabzada Yaqub Khan… Chief of Quaid-e-Azam’s Bodyguards.
