Price reduction is one of the civil law remedies incorporated in the Vienna sales convention. On the other hand, Pakistan is neither the signatory of the convention nor its national sales law posses this remedy. Therefore a research is highly required to fill this vacuum and find out a solution for international buyer who is involved in trade with parties in Pakistan. Thus the study aims to investigate the suitability of price reduction in compatibility with existing legal regime. The study reveals the raison d'être in contract making via relative analysis of the existence of price reduction as an assurance for performance and certainty. The results depict that adding price reduction as remedy will be a good legal cover to the buyer's claims and a better response to the business practices in Pakistan. Especially, where the buyer is facing difficulties to prove his loss he may simply opt to reduce the price. Hence, study recommends that introducing the 'price reduction' as a remedy in the local legal system will enhance the confidence of a commercial buyer from the international community.

Education is condition sine qua non for the development of a country. Therefore, international human rights law emphasizes the right to education with its categorical implementation throughout the globe.The constitutional backing in Pakistan was a principle of policy (Article 37) initially which was later on supplemented by the eighteenth Amendment. The Amendment not only recognizes the right to education but devolves its implementation to the provinces as well. Since the last decade, various legislation have been made on the federal and provincial levels. The study investigates these legislative measures with an evolutionary backdrop of the efforts, while the detailed analysis on the availability of the right to education in the country shows a few vagueness's and implementing lacunae. Hence, it strongly recommends the enhancement of financial support and eradication of administrative constraints to provide this fundamental right.
