 ## Unreleased
 
 ### Added
-
-- Added support to `OPENPULSE` code in pyqasm. ([#246](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/246))
-  ###### Example:
-  ```qasm
-  OPENQASM 3.0;
-  defcalgrammar "openpulse";
-    
-  complex[float[32]] amp = 1.0 + 2.0im;
-  cal {
-      port d0;
-      frame driveframe = newframe(d0, 5.0e9, 0.0);
-      waveform wf = gaussian(amp, 16ns, 4ns);
-  }
-    
-  const float frequency_start = 4.5e9;
-  const float frequency_step = 1e6;
-  const int frequency_num_steps = 3;
-  
-  defcal saturation_pulse $0 {
-      play(driveframe, constant(amp, 100e-6s));
-  }
-    
-  cal {
-      set_frequency(driveframe, frequency_start);
-  }
-    
-  for int i in [1:frequency_num_steps] {
-      cal {
-          shift_frequency(driveframe, frequency_step);
-      }
-      saturation_pulse $0;
-  }
-  ```
-- Added a workflow to track changes in the `docs/_static/logo.png` file to prevent unnecessary modifications. ([#257](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/257))
-- Added decomposition details for all gates in the `docs/gate_decompositions.md` file. ([#237](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/237))
-
+- Direct support for `delay` instructions in OpenQASM 2 parsing. ([#275](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/275)) Eg. - 
+```python
+from pyqasm import loads
+qasm_str = """
+OPENQASM 2.0;
+include "qelib1.inc";
+qreg q[1];
+delay[100ns] q[0];
+"""
+program = loads(qasm_str)
+program.unroll()
+print(program)
+```
 
 ### Improved / Modified
-- Modified if statement validation to now include empty blocks as well. See [Issue #246](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/issues/246) for details. ([#251](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/251))
 
 ### Deprecated
 
 ### Removed
 
 ### Fixed
-- Fixed Complex value initialization error. ([#253](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/253))
-- Fixed duplicate qubit argument check in function calls and  Error in function call with aliased qubit. ([#260](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/260))
-- Fixed Gate ordering across registers in `pyqasm.draw()` function. ([#268](https://github.com/qBraid/pyqasm/pull/268))
