The Why’s and what’s!

August 29, 2010 Leave a comment

It’s been some time now that a constant surge of why’s and what’s have been ringing in my head about a lot of issues and it’s long before I get the answer to any of those. Most of the why’s and what’s are concerned with the current state of situation that is prevailing for the last couple of years, in fact three to be exact but during the last one and half it has gathered pace.
First and foremost among this has been related to the militant insurgency and the war of terror that has been mobilized for the better part of this decade as for some it’s just one or two years old but in fact Pakistan has been at the battlefront since the American invasion of Afghanistan back in 2001. It has spread slow and gradually to most parts of our beloved home land and gave us some intense moments too during the guerilla warfare of Swat and its aftermath especially on Khyber-Pukhtoonkhwa, the Talibanization in Southern Punjab and the deteriorating situation of Baluchistan.
Secondly, there are a lot of why’s and what’s that can be bombarded upon the fragile and self centered political leadership (as if we have any) that we are blessed with which I believe frankly speaking is on a mission to suck out the last ounce of blood from the moral-less and conscienceless nation that we have turned into like a leech.
Lastly, the ever deteriorating social balance of Pakistan may it be our vulnerability to the natural catastrophes’ like the earth quakes of 2005 or the recent floods or social altercations like the Sialkot Incident or the demise of sports i.e. falling standards of hockey and squash which we were once champions or the clear failure of cricket to politics, grouping and now match fixing for some spot fixing.
These are just a few of the aspects of these why’s and what’s that are hampering us and eating away the roots of our bear sovereignty and challenging us on every possible step of life but one thing is for sure we’re far from having answers to these why’s and what’s.
God bless Pakistan.

Well played PTCL …

August 26, 2010 Leave a comment

It has been almost two and a half weeks or may be more that PTCL staff is observing a strike for asking a rise in the pays, well if it had been a strike of the normal extend then it would have been okay but the most interesting thing that has come forth is that the Genius employees of PTCL have acted so intelligently that they have disabled a fair amount phones as part of the protest now if anyone could remind them that you are raising voices for something that you are so deeply concerned with but what about those who needs to use the phone or internet services for that matter who is responsible for their loses.
Upon all this has not been highlighted in any form of media which is interesting and surprising.

The Sialkot tragedy …

August 25, 2010 Leave a comment

Today was going through the tv channels when I came across the report that is being issued after the horrific event that occurred in Sialkot a few days back. The most important thing that is quite saddening to see is that after all that has happened the end result whatever may be but the cause notified in the media today is really heart wrecking as the event itself.
It really kills one to see how brutally and sadistically this act had been carried out I along with many Pakistani at the moment can just pray to God that the culprits (those civilians who carried this act along with the police officials that helped them make mockery of law) are brought to justice.
