According to a news report ECP has suspended the membership of 26 parliamentarians for not declaring their assets by the deadline date of September 30th, 2013. I simply fail to understand as to why did they not do so?! What were they afraid of? These 26 are probably not aware of the power that their clout enjoys. Have the assets of ANY repeat ANY parliamentarian been ever scrutinized or investiga

Some of the city streets, especially in the olden city interior are stinking with such a bad foul stench and smell that it is not possible for one to walk through them without covering one’s nose with a hanky. These streets are literally littered with offals, innards and entrails of the animals that have been sacrificed by the faithful in almost every house there. Each one of them is now blamin

It was quite amusing to see GeneralKhalid Shameem Wynne, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee himself doing the Slow March by jerking his feet forward one at a time in drill square style just as was being done by the two escorts ahead of him while he was reviewing the Guard of Honour presented to him on his retirement.

The ZilHajj moon was sighted on 6th October 2013 in Pakistan where as it appeared on the 5th in Saudi Arabia. Hajj would, therefore, be performed on the 14th October and the Eid ul Azha on the 15th at Makkah whereas in Pakistan Hajj will be observed on the 15th and Eid on the 16th consecutively. Hajj is one thing that CANNOT be performed anywhere in the world except Makkah. Is it not something

The important post of the Chairman NAB has been lying vacant for the past four months since 28 May 2013 when the Supreme Court ruled that Admiral Bukhari’s selection was in violation of the constitution. For all practical purposes the functioning of the NAB has come to a standstill because as per the law, NAB cannot take decisions on any pending cases unless the chairman signs off on them. There
