As it is evident from the history of Pakistan politics, elections are meant for nothing except change of the faces. Mid-term elections, full-term elections, referendums, general polls and other such type of political games have badly failed to address our problems. Since the dawn on 1947, we have mandated many Massihas (saviours), but no one […]
As usual, he entered his ‘own’ house without knocking the door and seeking permission, hoping that his siblings might be eagerly waiting for his return. How excited he was to see his house which had experienced a number of changes. As he was proceeding inside, his heartbeat was getting faster. Entering the room, he saw […]
Walking on the footpaths of Anarkali or Bhati Gate and passing by the glorious Lahore fort, you will see a number of young and old men lying on roadsides wearing rages and, in most of the cases, smoking drugs. They are the ones who have no home, no families, no work and no proper food. […]
Team England’ s cricket director, Andy Flower, has recommended the International Cricket Council (ICC) to take some radical measures to preserve the future of the Test format which, he thinks, is rapidly losing fame and finances.

With the dawn of the 21st century, where many old traditions have diminished and new trends have set in, the commercialisation of relationships has also become a norm in the modern word. Love, affection, respect and care are no more left as driving forces behind formation of relations; only needs, interests and commercial advantages seem […]
How happy they were! Totally unaware of the fact that they would not be able to witness the sun of November 7 setting deep into the green fields stretching around their house. Mother rose up early in the morning, cooked dessert, adorned her only son and sent him to mosque for Eid prayer by taking […]
With Bakra Eid in the offing, every poor Muslim of Pakistan is vying for sacrificial animals with his/her limited budget that, in fact, hardly fulfills daily necessities. After all, we are bound to have an animal at Eid day to save our egos and perk up status quos—-the factors that have nothing to with religion […]
Though our society is awash with social disparities and discrepancies around different lines, but the outrageous or perhaps inhuman manifestation of this vice lies in marital relations which we are supposed to establish only inside our caste. So deplorable! While living in 21st century which is marked with extreme human wisdom, we turn to be […]
Walking alongside a city road early morning, you will see a number of ‘servant children’, aged between 10 to 12, carrying heavy school bags of their age fellow masters and going to drop them to their alma maters. The gruesome thing to note is that these by-birth servants see off their life owners on school […]
It was a bright sunny morning of October. I rose up at 6th am, took bath with cold water, try to furnish myself by pressing my cloths roughly and haphazardly reached Punjab Public Service Commission’s office for an interview as I was one of the ‘lucky’ guys who had happened to pass the written test […]
The Pakistani youngsters, who enthusiastically rubbed shoulders with the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief, Imran Khan here at Iqbal Park, Lahore on Sunday, are now confused to make difference between two words i.e., Change and politics after Khan’s recent statement that he can think of forming a coalition with the Pakistan Muslim League (N), the former PML’s […]
Indeed, outstanding! Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s public meeting at Iqbal Park, Lahore was regarded as one of the biggest political gatherings of last two decades. A large number of frustrated, unemployed and enlightened youth waved flags, raised slogans and pledged support for Imran Khan who was at the heart of Punjab with just one-point agenda i.e., Save […]
