An uncanny, mostly unrestrained and a boisterous N Leaguer came up with an incredible logic on a TV talk show the other day when responding to a query if the SOPs against Corona were being observed in the PDM public meetings, said that people would rather prefer to die of Corona than of the stifling and suffocating rule of this government! What a Logic?! Oh poor awaam die you must one way or the

In early September 1965 clouds of war were gathering ominously but had not burst as yet. On 5th September a van stopped alongside my car at Elphinstone Street Karachi and its driver seeing me listening to the news on my car radio, eagerly asked, “Has Pakistan declared war?”. “No” I replied, but could see the disappointment writ large on his face. Early next morning the Indians started it but trea

It was quite reassuring for an old soldier to see that in the Defence Day Awards investiture ceremony the recipients of the awards while receiving the award from the President were not jerking their faces towards the camera to get themselves foootooographed, an unfortunate practice which has crept in lately and seen in our almost all award and prize distribution ceremonies. The pe

It is really distressing to watch some of the TV Talk Shows where the honourable members of the parliament shower each other with slanderous invectives like Chor, Daku, Lutera, Corrupt, Money Launderer, Tax Evader, Fraudulent, Dishonest, Deceitful and even Traitor so profusely that it leaves the poor viewer askance as to how do they swallow it all?! Why don’t these men of honour sue the assailan

Every second day the Indian High Commissioner or his deputy is summoned by the Foreign Office to be served with a strong protest for firing across the LOC and killing innocent civilians on our side. The High Commissioner drives down to the Foreign office from his embassy in an impressive black limo flying Indian flag in full view of the public. As it happens too frequently, the car carrying the HC
