Radio Tax by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz Created On: 24/Feb/2012 Views: 1633 Replies: 0 
A parliamentary committee has recommended imposition of 2% Radio Tax on every recharge of the mobile phones and Rs. 30,000 to 40,000 on the purchase of new cars. It will make the PBC self reliant and stand on its own feet, says the committee. What a self reliance, one wonders, if it has to come through such an enforced indirect taxation on the hapless people of this country? Who in any case in Click here to read Full Article

Every domestic consumer of electricity is charged Rs. 35/= per month as the PTV Fees and the commercial consumers Rs. 50/= or even more. There are millions and millions of such electricity consumers throughout the country who are forced to pay the said fees which I am sure must be accruing billions to the PTV on this count only apart from the money it would be making from the commercials it airs.

The PPPP Mandate by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 30/Jan/2012 Views:1423 Replies:0 
The PPP regime which is in fact NOT the PPP but the PPPP (Parliamentarians) regime - remember? the PPP did not take part in the general elections of 2008 - is never tired of haranguing about the 5 year mandate given to it by the hundred seventy million people (satra karor awaam). Surprisingly, they are not the only one to make this tall claim but every other political party declares so, as if Paki Click here to read Full Article
PM’s SHO by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 24/Jan/2012 Views:1522 Replies:0 
A front page head lines of The News of today reads, “Whatever the memo verdict, SHO will be assigned by me, says PM”. What a statement coming from the highest executive of the country and what has a thanedar ( SHO) got to do with the Memogate except that he may be instrumental in implementing the judicial verdict ?! Frankly, what kind of message is the PM trying to give and to who? Is it not a Click here to read Full Article

Immunity Under Constitution by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 21/Jan/2012 Views:1662 Replies:0 
I think the constitution of Pakistan warrants that no law repugnant to Qura’n and Sunnah will be incorporated in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Does the immunity granted to the President and the Governors under the constitution not contradict it ? Click here to read Full Article

Aitzaz to represent Gilani in contempt case” reads a front page headline in the daily The News of today.Do I recollect correctly barrister Aitzaz Ahsan saying that he will not appear before the CJP in any case?

Allies, Cabinet to accompany PM in the court” reads a front page headline of the daily The News of today. Hope they do not forget to garland the PM profusely and raise slogans befitting the occasion like, “Qadam Badhao Yousaf Gilani – Hum tumharey saath hein”, and “Yousaf Gilani tere jan nisar – Beshumar - - beshumar”. I don’t think they will be allowed to take a Dhol for Bhangra in the court Click here to read Full Article

The commission on Memogate wants Mansoor Ijaz’s presence before it while a few others are interested in his not being there. All sorts of delaying tactics and impediments are being created for him not to travel to Pakistan such as issuance of visa, not guaranteeing his safety and security while in Pakistan and not granting him immunity from being charged for some other offence etc..
