It would be ungrateful on the part of the pensioners not to thank the govt. for the 10% and 25% relief offered to them. In these hard days of high inflation and sky rocketing prices any respite big or small is more than welcome. However, it was pathetic to see long queues of old men and women standing for hours in the sizzling sun without shade and water at the bank windows waiting helplessly for

Only a few days ago it was the Secretary Finance Baluchistan with crores of ill gotten money stashed in the wardrobes of his bedroom and now are reportedly a Director Foreign Affairs and an Assistant Director NAB arrested for similar corruption. Does anyone know of a single clean and honest department in this land of the pure? If there is one, kindly let us know.

Indeed integrity and being loyal to your profession is what counts most! But does it -- really? According to media reports the young DPO of Bahawal Nagar, Shariq Kamal, known for his integrity and who had taken action against the close aides of a local strong man – MNA Lalika – who were intercepted in a drunken state at a police check post and who getting berserk had then thrashed the policem

How could someone stoop so low to the abysmal depths of such an appallingly terrible inhuman act of setting to torch a wretched helpless young girl for helping a friend to elope, if even she did? Where were our law enforcing agencies when the self appointed jirga of the hoodlums was in session for almost 5 hours debating the fate of the poor unwary innocent girl? Where were her kiths and kin, re

It was indeed a very good news to hear about the return of Ali Haider Gilani after three years of incarceration at the hands of his abductors. The reunion with the family, especially the mother, must have been wonderful and something to really rejoice for him and the entire family. However, one thing that I don’t understand is his evacuation from Afghanistan by a special plane. A special flight co

Brahvo Gen. Raheel Sharif for not only dismissing the corrupt generals, brigadiers, colonels and majors but also recovering the ill gotten wealth from them. Sir, we have a large army and there could be quite a few more such corrupts around, especially among those who have had the opportunity of serving in or with the civil departments. May I suggest that an Operation Cleanup be launched wherein

Of late quite interesting in fact amusing veiled threats have been thrown at each other by the opposition and the ruling party. One cautioning the other that he had heaps of NAB files on him which he didn’t want to open. While the other warning some not to compel him to make public the anti state activities that he had been involved in. Is it all just a political sparring and black mailing of on

The other day I had an occasion to attend a wedding in one of the marquee wedding halls of Islamabad and for the four hours or so that I was in there had been quite horrifying for me. The marquee interior was one big pillarless hall the ceiling of which had miles of highly inflammable synthetic fabric hung artistically in arched waves bedecked with all kinds of electric and electronic lights, hug

The Bar Council and other lawyers are observing strike and black day to protest against the hanging of Mumtaz Qadri – the murderer of late Governor Salman Taseer. Does it not look strange that the very entity whose sole purpose is to ensure justice to a victim is protesting against the hanging of a murderer? It is also sad to see at times some of the black coats totting guns in the courts premise
