Those who know Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan know very well that he never forgives and never forgets. The biggest agony of his political life was when MQM publicly on cameras ridiculed him as Mr. Bean.

Why There Still Is Peace in Karachi? Asks Altaf Hussain

By Salman Mugsi • May 30th, 2013 • Category: Lead Story, Politics, Worth A Second Look

The real ’sher’ of Karachi is PTI and its local leadership. Imran Khan has also taken a solid and sound stance against the symbol of fear and coercion in Karachi, the MQM.

By Salman Mugsi • May 27th, 2013 • Category: Politics

When Altaf Hussain talks about his ‘fikri’ and ‘ilmi’ sittings with the MQM workers and Mustafa Azizabadi tweets about the ‘lectures’ of Altaf Hussain, I really want to reach out for my “pisstoal”.

NA-250 Karachi Election Analysis

By Salman Mugsi • Apr 30th, 2013 • Category: Politics

I live in NA-250 Karachi which is a strange combination of elite class residentia and the poorest slums of Karachi.

This is the area [...]

By Salman Mugsi • Mar 30th, 2013 • Category: Lead Story, Politics, Worth A Second Look

I still cannot believe that Zardari is our president? In the country of 180 million plus people, which is the sixth largest in population in the world, we have found nobody else but the Zardari to become our head of state? What’s wrong with us? What people we are?

This morning I was going to Karachi from Hyderabad and surprisingly the highway was almost deserted and most of the sparing traffic was trucks and trailers. But on the other side of the road, going out of Karachi, the line of vehicle was long.
One of my friend tweeted that there is a mad rush at [...]
