The politics of Punjab is all about hooliganism, sloganeering and political mud-slinging. Chief minister of Punjab rarely comes to the Assembly and he is all about solo flight. He doesn’t even consult is own cabinet, let alone the opposition. He is running the province with the help of some baboos and some police officers under [...]
Sasti Roti and Danish School Schemes may be launched with good intentions but the truth is that they were so foolish ideas at its best. I don’t know who gave these ideas to Shahbaz Sharif and why didn’t he use his own brain to evaluate such scheme.
When there are government schools throughout the province, why [...]
Mr. Sharif’s recent statement of implicating US in the PNS Mehran attack is a bit perplexing. Now PML N is supposedly the second largest political party of the nation. Not to mention, he is two time PM of this country. Who was once seen making a mad dash to New York to meet President Clinton, [...]
Despite of all their weaknesses and mistakes, this is the reason I kind of like the leadership of PML-N. Their approach is innovative and they try to at least do something visionary and worthwhile for the country. From Motorway to Yellow cab, and from aggressive economic policies to healthy foreign policy, they have shown the [...]
One wonders why Nawaz Sharif himself not really replying Musharraf and appears powerless to give a befitting reply to the mocking by Pervez Musharraf. It seems that Nawaz Sharif is confused and has nothing to say. ‘‘Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz on Monday issued a charge-sheet, terming Pervez Musharraf a most corrupt, callous, immoral and ruthless ruler [...]
The latest ‘National Corruption Perception Survey-2010’ of Transparency International Pakistan-the local partner of global not for profit conglomerate striving to eradicate corruption around the globe, should be an eye opener for all of us. What is more alarming is that democracy has failed to root out corruption; rather the scope of it is increased manifold. [...]
Well Jamshed Dasti is once again in the news, and this time once again he is in trouble and once again on the orders of the top boss, the premier is out to rescue the not-so-cultivated parliamentarian.
Police have arrested three aides of Jamshed Dasti, Member of National Assembly (MNA), on charges of torture against [...]
Pakistan is a victim of bad-governance and corruption. Due to institutional decay and slackness of the top Babus, government infrastructure, especially in smaller districts and tehsils where gubernatorial feudal elite and the corrupt officials often make lives of the hapless a living hell, has been dangerously weakened. In this backdrop, the efforts of Mr. Zubair [...]
One may say that the governor of Punjab Salman Taseer and Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi of PML-Q have started a smearing campaign against the PML-N and the government of Shahbaz Sharif in punjab, but the fact that the government of Punjab has shown so far lack of interest in combating the terrorism holds water.
Every month, terrorists [...]
Tall claims, false austerity, broken promises, shattered hopes and screwed up governance is what the government of PML-N in Punjab is all about. The story is written on every wall of the Punjab that this showy and ostentatious party has decieved the people once again, and there only cure is someone like Musharraf.
Shahbaz Sharif, the [...]
