I had the opportunity to have a live TweetChat with leading Pakistani journalist Naveen Naqvi.

Naveen Naqvi is a senior anchor at DawnNews and presents the morning news programme, Breakfast at Dawn. She lives in Karachi, Pakistan.

She also contributes to The Huffington Post. Naqvi was raised in Saudi Arabia and was an actress in Pakistan before becoming a journalist.

Here are the tweets from our TweetChat.
