Islamabad:Pakistan Academy of Letters (PAL) has planned to publish books on ideas of Quaid to apprise young generation with the ideology, lifestyle and thoughts of leader of the nation.

An official of PAL said all the articles written on the leader has been compiled and would be published in book form. Renowned researchers and intellectuals would author these books which would be published in various magazines, he told APP.

He said poetry written on Quaid would also be combined in book form. "Many songs have been written and sung on Quaid, but they were never compiled in one booklet", he said. A short collection of Quaid’s sayings on children was published so majority of the new generation was not aware of their thoughts, he stated.
