SC has ordered Pakistan Railways to operate Royal Palm adequately well !! No bureaucratic set up can function like a private commercial concern whose reputation and money are at stake. What the Dickens would Pak Railways management stand to lose if the Royal Palm goes to dogs or into loss or loses all its clientele? Nothing. The Administrators, who would have no stakes at all except their

I sent a request for a meeting with the PM through Citizens Portal on June 12th 2019 which was given Code No. PU120619-3072879 and its Status showed as “Initiated” and “assigned” to Chief Secretary, Punjab (probably for action). I thought the request should have been forwarded to the PM Secretariat Islamabad and, therefore, wrote on the Citizen Portal about it on June 14th, 2019. However, instea

In order to determine whether the Central Ruet e Hilal Committee was correct or the KP ulema in announcing the sighting of the Eid moon, let’s observe the full moon (14th of moon) when it shall be a perfectly round disc and easily decidable. If it happens to be on the evening of Sunday the 16th of June then Maulana Popalzei is correct and if it falls on Monday evening the 17th instant then Messr

Shadows of the ominous war clouds are deepening over Iran with each passing day. Threats and counter threat statements and moves from both sides are drawing the situation nearer to a flash point where even a small unwitting misunderstanding, whether by design or default, could explode it into a horrific conflagration anytime. The US geopolitical designs in this area, coupled with those of Isra

Minister for Science and Technology has picked up the cudgels against Mufti Muni bur Rehman – Chairman Ruet e Hilal Committee, who thinks it is his and his alone prerogative to tell us when to celebrate or not to celebrate Eid in Pakistan, that is throughout Pakistan from one end to the other end, be it the East-West or the North-South !

The money changer told him that a lot of fake Dollars, Pounds and Euros (in fact most foreign currencies) were in circulation and someone had passed on the fake bills to him. My friend rushed
