Every now and then one receives on one’s mobile phone some religious material to be circulated further in thousands and millions and warning those not doing so of dire consequences. Someone simply starts with, “We want to present the Holy Prophet SAW with a gift of 5 Crore Darood and you should share it further immediately”. And the chain takes off instantaneously. Some other send pictures of hol

Looking at the picture the first thought that came to my mind was, “Bravo, the President of Pakistan had himself grabbed hold of a proclaimed

After the APC meeting today MFR in a joint press conference informed the media that all the participating parties had rejected the results of the general elections and decided to form a committee to launch a country wide movement for the restoration of democracy. MFR tone was rather aggressive when he said that the oath taking session of the national assembly would be boycotted and the masses will
