Yaara I haven't touched any book after last years exams so I am not that much updated regarding the current scenario of Curcular/Foriegn Debts. Although I have shared the data which was valid till our exams in feb 2013 in the follwoing link

http://www.cssforum.com.pk/css-compu...t-affairs.html

As far as Drone attack and casualities are concerned I remember the Speech of Asif Ali Zardari in UNO last year, where is stated that the entire data relating to drones and the casualities that Pakistan had sufferened being a froent line ally in GWOT. I think you can get the link to that speech by searching it on UNO. or You can look for any article on Drones in JWT Magazine.

Regards

Drone Strikes Figures:

In October 2013, the London-based „Bureau of Investigative Journalism‟ had put the total death toll, since the campaign began in Pakistan in 2004, between 2,525 and 3,613. The Bureau stated that between 407 and 926 of those killed were civilians that accounts for 16 to 25 percent of the total deaths. Around 400 of the 2,200 victims of drone attacks over the past decade were non-combatants.

Circular Debts Figures:

The power companies` bills have spiked again to a staggering Rs216 bn, or equal to 45 pc of the previous bills of the Rs.480 bn cleared by the Nawaz Sharif government in its first month in power.
