Greetings from the Top
Some time back an acquaintance of mine was pleasantly surprised to receive an Eid Card from "Mr. ABDUL QADIR GILANI, MPA son of the PM, which read:-
This day binds us with the oneness of our humanity.
Eid is the celebration of our cherished ideals of peace, tolerance and love.
I heartily wish you a very "Happy Eid".
He read it over and over again cherishing every word of it and driving the pleasure of being remembered by the MPA son of the PM, till he noticed the rubber stamp on the envelop which drained his whole elation. It read:
DESPATCHER
Prime Minister's Sectt (internal)
Islamabad
He wondered, couldn't the illustrious son spend Rs. 7/= on the postage instead of using the free service of his father. And, who knows who had paid for the printing of the cards and from which fund?
Halwaee the hatti "“ Te pyo dada da fateha.
