Civil Service
In addition to his media work, Ashir Azeem was a Pakistani civil servant. He served in the civil service Federal Board of Revenue by being assiduous and honest. He worked tirelessly to improve Pakistan's economy and took steps by staying in Pakistan Customs and coordinating with CBR and other departments. During his service at Pakistan Customs, in order for Pakistan's industry to proliferate rapidly, he developed a software based on a system that cleared containers in 4 hours where previously it used to be cleared in 12 days. The project developed by Ashir and his colleagues was on par with developed countries like Australia and the United States. Due to this software, Pakistan Customs Department was moving towards transparency. But corrupted individuals after seeing a loss of their interests suspended Ashir from office by making baseless and false allegations. Here, he set a great example of the country's love and did not hold any press conference, did not resort to any propaganda. He quietly fought for his rights in the court for three years. Three years later, the court acquitted him and ordered to be reinstated in the post and dismissed all the allegations as false. However, he resigned from his post and migrated with his family from Pakistan to Canada. Now he is a truck driver in Canada and expresses his views in the love of Pakistan through his video message on YouTube.
