Ray of Hope for the Nation after Elections!

By Sahrish Khizar • May 17th, 2013 • Category: Politics

The day of 11th May is proved to be the memorable day in the political history of Pakistan. In national elections, the enthusiasm of entire nation has been amazingly praiseworthy. Pakistan Muslim League (N) and PTI both deserved to be congratulated. Not only that, but their leaders and workers also deserved congratulations. Certainly the change [...]



The Tyranny of Negative Narratives

By Brig. (r) Junaid Zaman • Feb 15th, 2013 • Category: Lead Story, Politics (Urdu), Worth A Second Look

On the lighter note, some would say that it is perhaps in the habits of us uniformed and ex-uniformed people to make and break and edit pairs of politicians according to our own views of what’s best for the country. Treading on that fringe, let me air my opinion that wouldn’t it do wonders for [...]



Respectible Mr CM these were your problems too

By Rai Azlan • Feb 14th, 2013 • Category: Politics

On Saturday evening, I made a mistake by writing my views about the new gift to humanity - “Lahore Metro Bus Service”. Some of my friends were kind enough to tell me that I was making a mistake and being negative about this huge development.

In addition, those who were not kind enough gave me many [...]



Justice is a Piece of Cake

By Wajid Ali Khan • Dec 24th, 2012 • Category: Lead Story, Politics, Worth A Second Look

News is in; the poor bakery employee of “Cake Gate” changed his statement in the court.
In his new statement, he denied he was kidnapped. He also absolved son-in-law of Shahbaz Sharif, the Chief Minister of Punjab from any involvement in the abuse he suffered. No surprises there. We were not expecting the poor fellow to [...]

Shahbaz Sharif’s Quandary

By Rohail Butt • Apr 2nd, 2012 • Category: Lead Story, Politics, Worth A Second Look

During the interview of Talat Husain of Dawn, Shahbaz Sharif said something which might not be liked by the loadshedding-stricken Punjab people, but it was a very generous and heartening thing for the larger interest of Pakistan. I wish if that were the approach of the leaders in 1971, Pakistan would never have dismembered.
Talat Husain [...]



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 [...]
