The emergence of free electronic media in Pakistan has made some (not all) anchors of the TV talk-shows tremendously powerful and notorious in their approaches. They invite any Tom, Dick and Harry of their choice to their shows and make them throw dirt on each other and spread venom against their opponents.

An important political personality and a vital issue were missing during and in the PM's broadcast respectively; the CM of Punjab from the dais; and reference to NRO in his address. The former represents the biggest opposition party; the latter is the actual reason which has created a rift between the judiciary and the executive and widened the gap

It looks like, the wise judiciary saved the unwise government from constitutional crises by taking a pre-emptive step on presumptive action allegedly suggested by the legal gurus around the President. The PM should open his eyes and realise that being the constitutional chief executive after the 18th amendment, it would have been his neck on the block, as the action would have been a treasonable

Many years ago, a friend of mine told me a true story narrated to him by his elders, which permanently printed in my memory. He said, during the heydays of the British Raj, a Lot Sahib wanted to kiss his wife on the veranda of his bungalow. She pushed him away pointing at the presence of nearby servants.

Gen (Rtd) Musharaf can be bracketed with those world leaders who lose self control when tipsy; but he is far off the line beyond which the other real leaders stand.

According to a news item, the principle secretary to the President, Mr. Salman Farooqui, has left for America for medical treatment. Like his boss, he is one of the beneficiaries of NRO. Is it a coincidence that he left the country on a well-known excuse of health, just a day after the PM had asked the beneficiaries to quit their jobs fulfilling the instructions of the SC?
