Believe it or not an ad with the picture has appeared on page-4, centre extreme right column in today’s Jang offering two pieces of Ghalaf e Ka’ba, made with about 4 kilos of gold for sale.

Ziarat Residency by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 22/Jun/2013 Views:1171 Replies:0 
It was indeed shocking and agonising to see the historic residency reduced to the ashes and along with it the invaluable heritage and many a rare memorabilia of the Father of the Nation lost to the nation for ever. As if the agony was not enough that to add salt to the injury some sycophant newspaper came up with a headline that Ch. Nisar has ordered to restore the residency to its original form Click here to read Full Article

An air freshener can was left on the seat inside a car parked in the sun and due to high temperature and heat generated in the air freshener it exploded and penetrated the side panel of the door. Thank God there were no children in the car. Click here to read Full Article

Butler in Public by Lt Col S. Riaz Jafri (Retd)

During the recent swearing in ceremonies of the PM and others being televised live, I noticed a senior army officer pushing the chair for a dignitary, which took me back in years to1954. Allow me to narrate it in some detail:It was the first re-union of the Corps of Pakistan Signals, in March 1954, and the finals of the Inter Regimental Hockey were being played at the GHQ Signals Regiment Rawalp Click here to read Full Article
 
Crime and Punishment: by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 5/Jun/2013 Views:882 Replies:0 
Most culprits escape punishments from courts due to lack of evidence or the prosecution not doing their job proficiently. Consequently not a single terrorist has been punished so far and this fact alone is contributing a great deal in the lawlessness of Karachi. The prosecutors and the judges have to do their jobs better, but speaking realistically they too have their problems. Police, apart from Click here to read Full Article
Energy Crisis by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)

The following letter was sent to the then PM SYR Gillani, which seemed to have fallen on deaf ears.

Successful Politicians by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)

Churchill while defining politics and politicians had said that a successful politician was the one who promised moon and stars to his electorate before the elections and after being elected to the power could explain to them as to why he couldn’t do all that he had promised. MNS has certainly grown up to qualify for that category of successful politicians. He has so far taken to explain Click here to read Full Article
Gujrat Tragedy by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
Posted By: Riaz On: 27/May/2013 Views:1636 Replies:0 
entirely agree with Rauf Klasra who on a tv talk show held the DPO and the DC Gujrat entirely responsible for the most tragic and untimely death of 16 very young innocent school going children and their outstandingly brave lady teacher, all burnt alive in the inferno of a van that got engulfed in fire due to the exploding of its substandard gas cylinder. The standard safety specifications for th Click here to read Full Article
 
The Coronation Sherwani by Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd
Posted By: Riaz On: 27/May/2013 Views:1673 Replies:0 
How I wish the above news going rounds on the internet is not true. And if it is true, nothing could be more ridiculous than it. Would Nawaz Shareef look any more dignified in it than Manmohan Singh in his cotton Kurta Pyjama? Why can't he emulate his favourite Indian leader in matters of austerity and simplicity? How would he sermonize Click here to read Full Article
MQM and Opposition Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd
Posted By: Riaz On: 27/May/2013 Views:1669 Replies:0 
In a news item Altaf Hussain was quoted saying that it was yet not decided whether the MQM would sit on the opposition benches or join the PPP in forming the government in Sindh. Come on Tafu Bhai, people don’t have that short a memory and know it too well that in the Pakistan politics there are two shrewd politicians who can never afford to be out of the government – one the MQM and the other Ma Click here to read Full Article
