Jinnah: ( Sad and despondent) What have they done? The land of the pure has been converted into a graveyard for apostates, hypocrites and liars. Have they forgotten pre-partition and the time when they were under the rule of the British? Have they forgotten the how the Hindus were against a separate land for the [...]
The awaited NRO is defeated and buried but unearthed the same old faces who would want to come back for a kill yet sometime again, if we falter. We have been for the last 62 years. The glimmer of hope that each one of us awaited finally came. Reaching there seemed easy but for how [...]
