Shahbaz Circles Frantically to Save Patients

By Rohail Butt • Feb 7th, 2012 • Category: Politics

No matter how much bitter and biggest the critic you are of PML-N and its leadership, if you have an iota of honesty, you would at least admit that the Shahbaz Sharif at least tries hard to overcome his blunders and to service the people of Punjab.
He started distributing expensive life-saving medicine in different hospitals [...]



PPP Targeting Punjab

By Rohail Butt • Feb 3rd, 2012 • Category: Politics

With pain and sadness I am writing this post. I really don’t like to talk about the provincial and ethnic disharmony, but now the water has risen above the heads, as the federal government in Islamabad has started playing politics on the corpses in the Punjab.
It was a common knowledge in Punjab that Pakistan People’s [...]



Shahbash Sharif and Punjab’s Suffering

By Faiza Iqbal • Feb 2nd, 2012 • Category: Politics

Where 80% of Pakistan lives, there is no gas and there is no power and there is no water. Shahbaz Sharif government accepted the rights of the provinces who produce gas, but didn’t think that how would they provide gas to where most of Pakistan’s industry and population is.
Their achievements go on and on. They [...]



Hypocrisy of Sharif Brothers

By Tabish Siddiqui • Dec 31st, 2011 • Category: Politics

Habib Jalib was a great Urdu-speaking revolutionary poet based in Karachi and affiliated with Imroz Karachi. He was a staunch democrat and his verses are an asset for the democratic and depressed forces. He must be turning violently in his grave, when Shahbaz Sharif recites his verses in the public meeting and tries to prove [...]

What a lovely start of week with a lovely and refreshing news:
“Brilliant young girl Sitara Akbar, who is only 11 years old and a resident of Chiniot, set a world record by passing O-level English, Mathmatics and Science.”

Lackluster Performance of PML-N in Punjab

By Rohail Butt • Oct 14th, 2011 • Category: Politics

I have been raising the point in these pages about the fact that the chief minister of Punjab Shahbaz Sharif has got huge potential and good intentions to service the people, but he looks more like the chief minister of Lahore, rather than the whole of Punjab.
No doubt, Shahbaz Sharif has done immense development work [...]



Imran Khan’s Labs Charging People Big for Dengue Tests Lahore

By Maria Sultan • Sep 18th, 2011 • Category: Politics

The man with tall claims, pipe dreams, lofty intentions, angelic postures, self-righteousness aura has been exposed big time as the health authorities raided the laboratories of Shaukat Khanum Hospital of Imran Khan and it was found that they were charging the poor people thousands of rupees just to test the Dengue Fever.
Punjab government has made [...]



Has Shahbaz Taseer Killed?

By Umer Toor • Aug 28th, 2011 • Category: Politics

The religious extremists have struck again and after assassinating the liberal and leading businessman Salman Taseer, they have also kidnapped his son Shahbaz Taseer. This is yet another example of the lawlessness and the failure of the Punjab government.
It seems that either the Punjab government was involved in the kidnapping or it was incompetent. [...]



Real face of the Khadim-e-Punjab

By Umer Toor • Aug 1st, 2011 • Category: Politics

It seems that the current budget of the province of Punjab in Pakistan has been devised by some property dealer. In the name of Ashiyana Housing Scheme, Jinnahabad, and other housing societies, almost all of the precious land in the Punjab has been occupied and being used to distribute among the matwalas of Noon League.
Top [...]



Shahbaz Sharif’s Asset Back to Pakistan

By Rohail Butt • Jun 22nd, 2011 • Category: Politics

The only objection, which was hurled at Shahbaz Sharif and Nawaz Sharif in the TV talkshows by the opponents is that their assets were outside the country, and they should bring them back.
Personally I don’t see anything bad about having assets abroad. Every politician of Pakistan and many many generals, judges, journalists, businessmen, even some [...]
