Brig. Imtiaz and Khwaja Adnan are the first beneficiaries of the defunct NRO to be sent to jail. It has rekindled the expectations of the people from the higher judiciary and they earnestly hope that these two would not be the last ones to go to jail. All NRO beneficiaries would also be made to account for their acts of omission and commission in the courts, irrespective of the high pedestal they

Mr. Mubashir Mahmood asks in bewilderment in the NewsPost of date that what kind of business or jobs these MNAs do that it triples their assets in just six years. Oh poor me Mubashir, I am surprised at your naivety. Don’t you know that each MNA and MPA spends crores first on securing the party ticket and then on his electioneering campaign notwithstanding the restrictions imposed by the Election C

.Shaheen Sehbai writes in the “Viewpoint” September 17th, that Zardari ditched Nawaz Sharif after grabbing key seats to power and now MNS has no option but to sink alongwith Zardar and share the blame [of bad governance] just because he couldn’t forego the small bit of power he got in Punjab. I beg to differ with Mr. Sehbai. As a matter of fact MNS has out-manoeuvred Zardari in the game of power

Please do not forget on this (happy) day the Flood Affected millions who lost their homes and hearths, cattle and chattels and some their near and dear ones.
