About this paper
Sir Adnan's 'HOLY SITES OF PAK-GK' booklet (7 pp, 100 one-liners, header 'ONE-LINER-100 (FPSC NEW TREND 2026-27)') from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack. CROSS-LINKED, NOT RE-EXTRACTED (22): the booklet's Kartarpur Corridor items Q1-Q15, Q57, Q58, Q65, Q80, Q81, Q93 and Q99 are already published in files/pms-papers/kartarpur-corridor-2019-practice-set.json (gate: 5 of the first 5 stems match that file; full-file comparison confirms the overlap) - only the booklet's non-Kartarpur holy-sites items are published here. DROPPED, never inferred (3): printed Q64 (nearest city to Kartarpur - Shakargarh is nearer than the booklet's Narowal city; Narowal is the district), Q74 (St Mary's Church - the name is generic, with St Mary's churches in Lahore, Rawalpindi, Gujranwala, Faisalabad and elsewhere, so no single standard city answer), Q100 (promotes religious tourism 'through corridors and what' - the booklet's 'Heritage sites' is a generic slogan, not a verifiable fact). CORRECTIONS (2, flagged in keyFlag): printed Q17 Nankana Sahib district corrected from the booklet's Sheikhupura (separate district since May 2005); printed Q79 reframed to the current district, Sujawal, for Shah Inayat Shaheed's Jhok Sharif shrine (booklet prints Thatta, the pre-2013 district). NOTE flags: Q37 (Taxila is the region's famous ancient university site, not immediately beside Katas Raj), Q66 (Nankana Sahib is among Sikhism's holiest sites), Q73 ('largest Hindu temple' is the booklet's conventional claim for Hinglaj Mata), Q87 (Cheraman Juma Mosque, Kerala, traditionally 629 CE).

Questions
No. It is Sir Adnan's 'HOLY SITES OF PAK-GK' one-liner booklet from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack, published as paperType 'practice', never as a past paper. The year 2026 is the booklet's label, not a claimed exam session.
22 Kartarpur Corridor items (Q1-Q15, Q57, Q58, Q65, Q80, Q81, Q93, Q99) are already published in the existing Kartarpur Corridor practice set, so they are cross-linked there, not re-extracted here. The other 3 were dropped: Q64 because Shakargarh, not Narowal city, is nearest to Kartarpur; Q74 because 'St Mary's Church' names churches in many Pakistani cities, so no single city answer is standard; and Q100 because its 'heritage sites' answer is a generic slogan, not a verifiable fact. Nothing was inferred to fill those gaps.
Two: Nankana Sahib's district (Sheikhupura in the booklet, but Nankana Sahib has been its own district since May 2005) and Shah Inayat Shaheed's shrine district (Thatta in the booklet, but Jhok Sharif is now in Sujawal District, split from Thatta in 2013). Both corrections are flagged in the questions' keyFlag.
Sikh sites (Nankana Sahib, Panja Sahib, Eminabad), Sufi shrines (Data Darbar, Multan, Sehwan Sharif, Pakpattan, Bhit Shah), Hindu sites (Hinglaj Mata, Katas Raj), mosques (Faisal, Badshahi, Shah Jahan) and churches (St Patrick's, Holy Trinity, Karachi). For Kartarpur Corridor facts, see the cross-linked Kartarpur Corridor practice set.
