Dude, Pakistan should not get into a space race with India and try and compete with Indians. The Indians have compared us to themselves for the past 70+ years and what has it gotten them? Nothing, but still they think they winning, to only go on the world stage and be humiliated by other countries. Any other country would not have lauded this failure, but the Indians think they somehow have won because Pakistan cannot send a rover to the moon... its Idiotic.
If Pakistan wants to develop a space program, it should further align itself with the Chinese. Like anything, you need a teacher and who better than the Chinese? Look at any field, Medicine, physics, metallurgy, Engineering, and ect. Name anything, you need a teacher to teach you... Honestly, Pakistan does not have the financial means to support these big projects. It does, however, have human capital and talent. Pakistan should change its educational system first and then develop relationships with Chinese universities to train its scientists. This mutually beneficial relationship will create a more robust system within Pakistan that is more sustainable for the future.
If you look at the Europeans and the jews they directly benefited from the space race between Soviets and Americans. There is a better larger race going on right now between 4-5 countries and if we can be part of that on the Chinese side we will benefit much more than building our own. The transfer of technology will be streamlined and much faster. Honestly, China is coming up with a lot of promising technologies and they are now starting to develop their own tech. Pakistan can learn a lot from the Chinese approach to technology and its incremental advancement. I truly believe that Pakistan can be part of that revolution and at this stage, there is much more to gain from the Chinese program then our own.
