About this paper
Sir Adnan's 'Pakistan's Ambassadors x International Organizations-GK' booklet (3 pp, header 'ONE-LINER (PPSC/FPSC NEW TREND 2025-26)') from the monster-data 'PMS SCREENING 2026 GK UPDATED' pack. 24 of 35 printed items published. DROPPED, never inferred or rewritten: printed Q2 (internal duplicate of Q1 - first Permanent Representative to the UN is the same post as first ambassador to the UN); printed Q3 (first female Permanent Representative to the UN) - already published identically in files/pms-papers/pms-2026-gk-first-female-ambassadors-practice-set.json, cross-linked here, not re-extracted; printed Q12 (Syed Tauqir Shah as ambassador to the OIC) - Tauqir Shah was Pakistan's Ambassador to the WTO (2017-2018), not to the OIC, and the OIC post has had many holders, so no single standard answer as printed; printed Q16/Q17 (Tehmina Janjua as ambassador / first female ambassador to the EU) - Janjua's documented posts are Italy, UN Geneva and Foreign Secretary; she never served in Brussels; printed Q19 (Zamir Akram representing Pakistan to the EU during GSP+ negotiations) - Akram served in Geneva, not Brussels, and no record ties him to the GSP+ negotiations; printed Q20 (Patras Bokhari as ambassador to UNESCO) - no UNESCO posting appears in Bokhari's record (UN New York 1951-1954, then UN Under-Secretary-General); printed Q22 (Agha Shahi as ambassador to FAO) - no FAO posting appears in Shahi's record (UN New York Permanent Representative 1967-1972, then Foreign Secretary and Foreign Minister); printed Q24 (Dr. Palitha Mahipala as Pakistan's representative at WHO) - Mahipala is Sri Lankan, the WHO Regional Director for South-East Asia, not a Pakistani mission official; printed Q26 (Zamir Akram as ambassador to IAEA) - the IAEA sits in Vienna and no Vienna posting appears in Akram's record; printed Q31 (Zamir Akram as Ambassador to WTO) - the dedicated WTO ambassadorship is a separate post (Tauqir Shah held it in 2017-2018). GATE: the crude 0.6 token-similarity scan reported 3 of the first 5 stems in two bank files, but manual inspection shows only one genuine match (Q3, already published in the female-ambassadors set and dropped here); the Q1/Q2 hits are false matches against first-female-ambassador questions with different answers.

Questions
No. It is Sir Adnan's 'Pakistan's Ambassadors x International Organizations-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.
Ahmed Shah Patras Bokhari, Pakistan's first Permanent Representative to the UN in New York (1951-1954). Sir Zafarullah Khan headed Pakistan's UN delegation from 1947 as Foreign Minister, but Bokhari was the first resident Permanent Representative.
Shamshad Ahmad, Permanent Representative from February 2000 to May 2002. The booklet's answer, Munir Akram, is wrong for that date: Akram took over only in May 2002, and went on to serve two New York terms (2002-2008 and 2019-2025), making him Pakistan's longest-serving Permanent Representative.
Because they were false, wrong-post, unverifiable or duplicated as printed: Tauqir Shah was WTO ambassador, not OIC ambassador; Tehmina Janjua never served in Brussels; Zamir Akram never held the Vienna (IAEA) or dedicated WTO posts; Agha Shahi and Patras Bokhari held no FAO or UNESCO postings; Palitha Mahipala is a Sri Lankan WHO official, not Pakistan's representative; and two items duplicated items already published elsewhere. Per the standing rule, such items are dropped, never inferred or rewritten.
