NONE OF THE ABOVE BY Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz Created On: 1/May/2013 Views: 1109 Replies: 0 
The ECP yielding to the politicians’ request has removed the “None of the Above” box from the ballot papers. The politicians’ point of view was that anybody not wishing to vote for any of the contestants would not come to the polling station in the first place just to stamp the said box! Okay, agreed and let’s accept their view point. But if the turn out in any constituency is less Click here to read Full Article

Islamic Trade & Business BY Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 1/May/2013 Views:1131 Replies:0 
The Islamic system of business, trade and finance management (banking) is said to be the best as it will not allow any exploitation of the lower and middle classes and that the distribution of the wealth will be equitable. However, our history tells us differently. There was rarely, if ever, any middle class and it were only the rich or the poor in our early days as well as during the later Khi Click here to read Full Article
Talking Seriously by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 29/Apr/2013 Views:1540 Replies:0 
With less than a dozen days left to the polls – May 11th - the electioneering fervor is on its peak. The party leaders are frantically holding public meetings – at times thrice a day – and promising moon to the innocent and naïve masses. They claim to eradicate poverty, power and gas load shedding, unemployment and joblessness and offer better and free education, healthcare, interest free loans Click here to read Full Article

Drones by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 17/Apr/2013 Views:1063 Replies:0 
Musharraf is being castigated by all and sundry left and right for many things including the drone strikes in Pakistan. Yes, Musharraf did allow the use of drones but has anyone also given it a thought – why. Are the drone strikes doing harm to Pakistan or good? Who are they used against and actually kill whom? We are shown only the pictures of the children, women and old folks living in the near Click here to read Full Article
ROs Discretion by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 8/Apr/2013 Views:1247 Replies:0 
Ch. Nisar’s and General Musharraf’s nomination papers were reportedly rejected by some ROs at Rawalpindi and Karachi but were strangely found acceptable by the other ROs at other places allowing them to contest from those constituencies in the coming general elections. It is strange! Were their papers rejected on some Click here to read Full Article
 
None of the Above by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 6/Apr/2013 Views:895 Replies:0 
The ECP has done well to introduce the ‘None of the Above” box in the ballot papers and has asked for a Presidential ordinance to be issued in this respect to incorporate the change in the electoral rules. However, I hasten to draw the ECP attention to an important point before the ordinance is issued in the form it is requested. The ECP has presently laid down that in the event of 51 per cent Click here to read Full Article
Bilawal’s Estrangement by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)

Reportedly Bilwal asked his aunt Faryal Talpur, the present chief coordinator of the PPP, to issue a few Senators’ tickets to certain persons, which she declined to oblige. Dady Zardari sided with the sister telling Bilwal that he was yet in the process of being groomed and that Faryal knew the best what she was doing. Disillusioned and estranged Bilawal left for Dubai and the party cahoots are Click here to read Full Article

Return of Musharraf by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 2/Apr/2013 Views:1314 Replies:0 
If not you at least I find it perplexing to fathom out any reason for the return of Musharraf at this juncture of our political commotion. No sane person in his proper senses would return from the safe havens of Dubai and London to face three murder trials – Benazir, Lal Masjid and Akbar Bugti, a number of high treason petitions and violation of article 6 charges, a host of hostile political parti Click here to read Full Article
