While the “Hell with them” (bhaR mein jaen) is the unanimous cry of every patriotic Pakistani, one fails to understand as to why the Chairman PCB Sheryar Khan and the Chief of the PCB Executive Committee Najam Sethi are not only so cowed in condemning the ICB explicitly but are still hoping against hopes for playing cricket with India at some later time. To pay the Indians in the same coin, I be

When asked by a reporter to say something on the Iqbal Day, Imran Khan recited,“Us rizq se maut achhi hai – jis rizq se ati ho parvaaz mein kotahi”, and went on to add that it was his favourite verse. Dear Sir, your favourite verse as composed by the great poet was, “Ay taair e lahoti us rizq se maut achhi – Jis rizq se ati ho parvaaz mein kotahi”. I wonder what would be the fate of your n

It is indeed a laudable step on the part of the Minister of Interior Ch. Nisar Ali Khan to have not only introduced the online application for the issuance of the passports and the computerized national identity cards but also their delivery at the door steps of the applicants through the courier service in the country. Sir, I take off my hat in salutations to you for such apro bono publico step

Cricket was called a gentlemen’s game. So much so anything improper was proverbially equated as not being “cricket”. In the days gone by I remember an Indian outfielder making an outstretched catch at the ropes and the umpire having had raised his finger, but the Indian player shook his head that one of his feet was touching the rope when caught the ball and thus the Pakistani batsman was awarded

The Senate has rekindled a waning faint hope of the old pensioners by passing a resolution unanimously to increase the pension of the old retired government servants in accordance with the increase in prices prevailing in the country. How much increase would there be has not been specified and left to the financial pundits to work it out. While the increase is ye

Now that nearly 8 million animals – some costing a million and more – have been sacrificed in Pakistan, I wonder why the Qurbani at that scale is not performed in most other Muslim countries, in some not at all. Of course during Hajj it is a must but is it also mandatory (Farz, Wajab) for the Muslims at places other than Hajj? I think not, because we all call it a Sunnat e Ibrahimi. A sunnat. A
