Shaista Zaid the English newscaster of PTV on her last day in July 2012 after reading the news for 43 years. A graceful lady with lovely voice & impeccable accent made it look so easy. She truly was an institution.

ریڈیو پاکستان اور پی ٹی وی میں زبان دانی کے اعتبار سے کیسی کیسی عظیم ہستیاں تھیں جن کے جانے سے پی ٹی وی بھی سسکیاں لیکر مر گیا

She was a class act; she made the younger generations to have an understanding of how to speak and what to say. Fewer can even begin to imagine to come closer to her high benchmark.

Azhar Lodhi, Khalid Hameed, Hameed Akhtar, Zubair Ud Din, Ishrat Fatima, Mahpara Safdar, Shaista Zaid,Nighat Afreen. They were pioneers. Khalid Hameed is still active on VOA urdu and Ishrat Fatima too on Radio Pakistan.

I grew up listening to her, as a child I use to think she is a foreigner because of her accent and perfect English. I am glad she retired during good times, I am sure current condition of ptv would've made her sick to her stomach.

شکریہ آپ نے شئیر کیا۔
کوئی شک نہیں، شاندار انداز اور لہجہ ہوتا تھا اُن کا۔۔۔۔۔ ہم نے کم عمری سے دیکھا، شخصیت بھی ایسی پر وقار کہ دیکھنے سننے والے پر اثر قائم کرے۔
آج کل کہاں ہوتی ہیں، اگر کوئی ٹوئیٹر اکاؤنٹ ہو کسی کے پاس۔

Saw her once prepping for the evening news whilst PTV Islamabad was still broadcasting out of their studios in Chaklala, Rawalpindi.

I remember her face as well as my mothers because for many years in 90s and early 2000s we used to listen to her almost daily at 7 PM on PTV English news.
