The date of retirement of Gen. Kiyani – November 28th - is fast approaching and many a pseudo “expert” is airing his views, analyses and even recommendations for his successor. A private TV channel gave the news this evening that the PM will himself announce the name of the next COAS soon. I sincerely pray and wish that the upper most consideration in the mind of the PM for selecting the COAS wou

In view of the SC orders to hold the LB elections in the country and Cantonments at the earliest the ECP finds itself in a tight corner. According to it except for the KPK no other province has passed the Local Body Govt. bill as yet as the oppositions in those provinces fear the ruling provincial governments might manoeuvre a bill favouring those in power. The bill passed by the KPK assembly

The other day I met a Parachinari who was visibly pleased at the killing of Hakeem ullah Mehsud. On my asking him the reason for his jubilation he looked deep into my eyes with a poignant gaze and said, “If you had seen the video showing how these Kafirs slaughtered my kith and kins, reciting Allah o Akbar while cutting their throats and

Sometime back I had drawn the attention of the law enforcing agencies to take notice of the indiscriminate aerial firing resorted to by the supporters of the winning politicians during the general elections but none of the violators of this crime seemed to have been proceeded against. I believe we have a law against such aerial firing, but who cares?! Local Bodies elections are in the offing and

A Sheikh ul Islam (Grand Mufti) of the Ottoman Caliphate, had given the verdict against the printing press invented by German goldsmith Johann Gutenberg in 1448 as haram, as it could also print human pictures, images and effigies etc. The Caliph’s court edict was applicable to the entire Islamic world, which was, however, rescinded some two hundred years later. But by then it had done immense dam

How I wish that after the exchange of pleasantries the moment it became clear to MNS that Obama was neither going to accommodate Pakistan’s stance on the drones nor commit to exert US influence over India to resolve the long outstanding dispute of Kashmir, he should have got up to leave, but before leaving had said. “Thank you Mr. President for your time and it was nice knowing you. By the way,

According to a news report ECP has suspended the membership of 26 parliamentarians for not declaring their assets by the deadline date of September 30th, 2013. I simply fail to understand as to why did they not do so?! What were they afraid of? These 26 are probably not aware of the power that their clout enjoys. Have the assets of ANY repeat ANY parliamentarian been ever scrutinized or investiga

Some of the city streets, especially in the olden city interior are stinking with such a bad foul stench and smell that it is not possible for one to walk through them without covering one’s nose with a hanky. These streets are literally littered with offals, innards and entrails of the animals that have been sacrificed by the faithful in almost every house there. Each one of them is now blamin
