Bolta Pakistan back on Aaj TV

ISLAMABAD: Bolta Pakistan, Aaj TV's flagship program, resumed  Monday (August 17) after a hiatus of over eight months.
 
It will be broadcast daily from Monday through Wednesday at 11pm.
 
The program ended in November last year after its popular hosts Nusrat Javeed (pictured) and Mushtaq Minhas quit the channel and joined BOL News.
 
Bolta Pakistan would now be hosted by broadcast journalist Gulmeenay Sethi while Nusrat Javeed would be a commentator on different issues. Earlier, the program was hosted by Mushtaq Minhas who is still with BOL News.
 
Javeed has been in journalism since 1975 and has worked for almost all English dailies in Pakistan. It was with Bolta Pakistan that he entered the world of broadcast media.
 
Gulmeenay Sethi is a broadcast journalist and was currently hosting The World Tonight at 8pm on PTV World. She has also worked as producer to some renowned anchorpersons at Samaa News, CNBC Pakistan and Dawn TV. Gulmeenay is the daughter of former cabinet secretary, Nargis Sethi.
