The data for this research was collected from Pakistani Urdu and English newspapers including ‘Daily Times’, ‘The Nation’, ‘Dawn’, ‘The Express Tribune’, The Frontier Post’, ‘Daily Jang’, ‘Daily Dunya’, ‘Daily Pakistan’, ‘Daily Nawai-e-Waqt’ and ‘Daily Express’ through random sampling technique. The investigation utilizes the extended X-bar theory to syntactically dissect the information within the framework of Minimalist Program.
