According to a news report after the Chairman CDA removed the old Director Parliament Lodges - probably on account of MNA Dasti’s allegation - the newly appointed Director Parliament Lodges politely declined to assume the charge. That reminds me of an incidence of about two decades ago – or may be even more. I was going to Rawalpindi from Islamabad in my car and spotted a gentle

US$ 50,000/-, to deposit the bakhsheesh in the Police Welfare Fund. The IG is also said to hav

The Chairman PESS says that "nowhere he has seen the media being given that kind of freedom to discuss the substance of the parleys taking place between the govt. and the extremists". And, I say “nowhere is seen any parleys taking place between a legit govt. and the lawless extremists and terrorists challenging the writ of the govt. that blatantly. Parleys are always held between more or less th

Ever since the start of the parleys by the Muzakrati Committee constituted by the Prime Minister, Talibaan have come up with certain preconditions for any fruitful talks. Maulana Abdul Aziz of Lal Masjid is in the fore front with his demand for the imposition of Shariah in Pakistan as according to him the Constitution of Pakistan is not Islamic. His main argument against it is that justice is not

Not many know of the implications involved in Musharraf’s overstaying in the AFIC and they keep offering all kinds of their most knowledgeable (read naïve) comments and opinions about it.

A controversy is raging in the print and electronic media whether the army is with or not with Musharraf in his high treason trial. Not only some of the naïve TV anchors are asking the army to clarify its stance but surprisingly some of the seasoned political stalwarts who should know better are also insisting upon the same stupid question.
