Underprivileged class has reached a breaking point by Asif Haroon Raja

The people have lost trust in their leaders because they have repeatedly betrayed them in the name of democracy. While democracy was sold as the remedy for all their ailments, democracy made the lives of the lower class of society miserable. The elites enriched themselves by using state resources and looting the national wealth but did little to allay the sufferings of the under privileged. Wideni Click here to read Full Article

Why terrorism couldn’t be curbed? by Asif Haroon Raja

Terrorism is the foremost problem of the world but ironically it is yet to be defined. What is the yardstick for defining a terrorist since ‘one person’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter’ and vice versa? Difference between terrorism and freedom struggle has also not been defined. No explanation has been rendered as to how come religious extremism and terrorism have been exclusively confined Click here to read Full Article

India’s worst fears with regard to the situation in Afghanistan are in all likelihood coming true. The United States was India’s closest partner in Afghanistan venture and both had jointly worked up regional objectives for mutual benefits. This mutually beneficial partnership remained strong till as late as 2012 during which Indo-US, Indo-Afghan and Afghan-US strategic partnership agreements were Click here to read Full Article
 
Army is neutral and has no favorites by Asif Haroon Raja

Sudden emergence of Tehrik-e-Taliban-Pakistan (TTP) in December 2007 under unknown Baitullah Mehsud (deceased) from nowhere was in reaction to Gen Musharraf’s pro-US policies and its continued vendetta is because of the role of liberal parties pursuing Musharraf’s policies. The banned TTP is exploiting the disillusionment of the youth and frustration of the have-nots and has stepped up its propaga Click here to read Full Article

Anti-Kalabagh dam (KBD) lobby in Pakistan has successfully scuttled plans to construct KBD which is technically most feasible, economically viable and beneficial for all the four provinces. ANP in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) has doggedly opposed construction of this dam since in its view KBD will sink Nowshera in KPK. Sindh nationalist parties maintain that it would turn Sindh into an arid area and d Click here to read Full Article

The year 2007 marked the beginning of end of Gen Musharraf’s rule which he commenced in October 1999 after deposing an elected government of Nawaz Sharif through a coup launched by his team of Generals while he was on his way back from Colombo. Lt Gen Aziz (CGS), Lt Gen Mahmood (Commander 10 Corps Rawalpindi), Lt Gen Usmani (Commander 2 Corps Karachi) and 111 Brigade Commander Brig Salahuddin Satt Click here to read Full Article
Political temperature is rising by Asif Haroon Raja

The two mainstream parties used to crib that they couldn’t deliver because they were not allowed to complete their five years tenure and were ousted prematurely during the democratic era from 1988 to 1999. This crib was duly addressed when the last PPP led government completed its full tenure, but instead of delivering it bled the nation white. It has left behind such a huge mess that it will be n Click here to read Full Article
 
Ghost of Gen Ziaul Haq still haunts seculars BY Asif Haroon Raja
Posted By: Asif_Haroon_Raja On: 26/Apr/2013 Views:1251 Replies:0 
Ziaul Haq’s ghost still haunts the liberals and seculars, which means his legacy is winning. They see him as the vilest man ever born in Pakistan and responsible for the malaise in the society. What a big joke and travesty of truth. None can deny that unlike stiff-necked Pakistani Generals, and that too with all powers in his hand; he was humble, courteous and led a simple and austere life. He nei Click here to read Full Article

Faced with tense geo-political environment on its birth because of hostile posture of India, Pakistan leadership had to perforce give preference to Pakistan’s security over socio-economic development. The 1948 and 1965 wars with India over Kashmir and 1971 war together with two conflicts in Rann of Katch and Kargil and Click here to read Full Article
 
Handlers of democracy are corrupt to the core by Asif Haroon Raja

Notwithstanding the long list of failings of political and military regimes, there were good points to brag about as well. It is unfortunate that the last coalition government had nothing to show and feel proud of. The period from March 2008 to March 16, 2013 will be remembered as the darkest periods of Pakistan’s chequered history. The last government is busy highlighting its so-called achievemen Click here to read Full Article
India schemed for East Bengal since 1947 by Asif Haroon Raja

When India was partitioned and moth eaten Pakistan deprived of West Bengal, East Punjab, large slices of West Punjab and Kashmir came into being on August 14, 1947, West Punjab was relatively more developed than all other provinces which became part of Pakistan. Balochistan, Sindh and East Bengal were under developed but East Bengal was the poorest of all. In united India, it had been among the mo Click here to read Full Article
