As we are remembering the dead of 18th october , year 2007....few startling disclosures by PPPP AND P............................................................
1-CM sindh..."we are investigating on same lines as bibi guided"....as like, you see how we are trying hard for BB murder investigation.......and Pir Sahab Pagara "CM Sindh is always under the influence of bhaang"speaking on the subjects of leaving ministries...
2-Aga Siraj Durrani......"the sacrifice made by workers on this day won't go waste"...as sure as he can be.....all of us are enjoying the sweet fruit of, all the power and luxuries ...since 3 and 1/2 years.....not wasted at all!
3- The photographer Feroze on his "remarkable" work of putting a gallery of pictures of all those who lost lives"I will enter my work in Guinness book of world records"...

Careful watch

GOOD NEWS... not from Islamic republic of Pakistan, but from Republic of India...The govt. of India has announced to pay 20,000 of the 36 thousands of air fair for intending haji's this year ...giving subsidy amounting to two and half billion.......inference...PM Gilani and son should now make niyyat for hajj, this year, and that too, via neighboring India and ask for forgiveness to Allah almighty, during the pilgrimage....

2-another one from neighboring India...some prominent figure from Pakistan has invited Anna Hazare to visit our land of rampant corruption...as he succeeded in bringing Indian government down to their knees, and he has graciously accepted the invitation......why not he do the same...sure he can!

Paharee news …As stated by senior leader of MQM, Haider Abbas Rizvi…”Ajmal Paharee, was and is our member and he will come out clean from court , as others have came”

But then, a somersault statement, by another minor leader MPA, Faisal Subzwari ….”Ajmal Paharee was expelled from party in year 1996 and all criminals be treated accordingly” just 24hrs back…

This one is even worse…At a talk show talking on power shortage (ghazi) Fauzia Wahab, appearing under the influence of heavy sedative , and getting euphoric said....."jee load shedding tu normal baat hei....isme konse hangame karne wali baat hei"..I am sure if anyone would have seen and heard that, he woud have come out and burned down few tyres too...with loud screams.....................

Why not?

It was the year 1975 and we started to struggle for the admission in a medical college. It was so simple a procedure during those days; you obtain enough marks and you would find a place in the merit list. And those enough were quite unlike what we notice at present times. 75% aggregate got First Class first position in premedical section in that year whereas one of my patient’s daughter with 76% seems to have no hope for getting even to the gate in the present era. This remark isn’t meant to offend those hardworking students, as one very senior person sitting at the Dow University Of Health Sciences administration once informed me that they did not even give a second look at marksheet below 80% aggregate. And look at how right he was; a van driver’s daughter with 84% couldn’t get admission -- the only option offered to her father was to accept the self finance seat, which the poor fellow could not afford even in his dreams.

Anyway, we submitted the admission form with documents, which included the most crucial and most important domicile certificate, which had the column requiring me to fill in the place from which my father migrated!

As we all remember clearly, the days we used to go to DMC and afterwards, following the events each day. The first floor canteen -- just as we entered the college gate, the samosa and that tasty, warm doodh patti and the shor sharaba of youth (now I somehow hate loud noises).

Then came the controversy of 20 free marks of NCC, making it tougher for some students to get into medical college as their merit would go down but that anti-NCC campaign paid off! And NCC marks were scrapped.

But I just cannot recall why a meeting attended by admission-seeking students was addressed by one young, political leader sort… and somehow his statement "... give us control on Karachi, we will build roads so shiny like glass.” I wonder why that statement got stuck in my memory.

It was such a thrill, the day of interview. Straight away, I can’t remember how many days elapsed between submission of form and interview. Names were called according to merit and just the original documents were checked and we got into professional career.

Yes, it will get quite long but it is worth writing, as I took the challenge of professional education in a much better way than few of the other classmates. First prof.: the best! And believe me, the basics we did were excellent; the three D's of Anatomy: discussion, dissection, and diagrams --the pillars of Anatomy. I'm lucky to have met my friend, Kasim (HR) and Owais and we formed own (study) group.

Whats happening?

In the background I hear Bilqees Khanum's ghazal, Anokha Ladla Khelan Ko Mange Chaand.

Oops... There are some 180 million of these "anokhe ladle". They want trains to play but there aren't any. They wanted airplanes bu there is not one in sight... They want energy -- nothing doing! Some want more gas; it's scarce. They need government with power... but handicapped, it is. What is left? Allama sahab's dream. Did he see a circus in his dream? Another no.

So what is this? Lets see... Laughter the best medicine!

Ojhri Camp Disaster

How can I forget that fateful day when I went to Islamabad for the engagement ceremony of my elder brother: April 10 1988. My brother, his to-be brother-in-law and I started to set out to the bus stand for Rawalpindi, do some shopping and make arrangements for the engagement event for that evening. It was 9 am, as I recall it, and we had not moved more than few meters from the house -- and boom! -- we heard the sound of some kind of blast that may not have been heard ever before, and what followed afterwards was smoke or fire flames; sky high.

We felt stunned and shocked by that sound and what we were watching high on sky, and all the people of that area started running here and there. Some feared that the Kahota atomic plant had been attacked by enemy planes. That wasn’t the case. The blast was at Faizabad heavy arms and artillery depot at Rawalpindi. Missiles were flying and falling all over the Islamabad and nearby mountains. It was just mayhem we never could have imagined and within few minutes, we witnessed the stinger missile from US smash a window of a house, hit the kitchen first, destroy all and then some how rotate all over sitting area, damaging the ceiling fan. Another missile we saw had entered the ground and gone deep.

I don’t remember much of the engagement ceremony. All I recall now is the tragic and horrific scenes at PIMS, those were the starting days of that health institute and hundreds of injured were being brought one after another. I did my part and stayed all night, helping out with the emergency work but I fully remember that child whose leg had to be amputated and was running with high grade fever. I shall never hope to witness something like that in my life. Some 4-5 thousand people had died that same day and Mr. Khaqan Abbasi was among them too.

The detail is meant to narrate something which none of my colleagues had witnessed and shared that disaster with the people of twin city.

The ammunition had came or was sent by US for the proxy war against Russian invasion and was being used by Afghan Mujahideens -- as they were called at that time -- they were the friends of later years, and they became Taliban. It was their country and they got it back by pushing one superpower back into their boundary and… later disintegrate.

The US of America is the encroacher, on one or the other pretext, its another western power , invading a sovereign nation, which was already had been badly bruised by earlier Russian adventurism.

It is high time (before it's too late) for the US to back out from this total chaotic and fruitless, exercise, which is destroying their own integrity as a nation as well as their cracking economy.

Let the Afghan people have a chance to rebuild themselves, which they didn't get even after the Russian left -- they surely taught them a lesson!

Taliban or no Taliban, Afghanistan is for Afghans... Just leave US!, under the cover of NATO.

Barking dogs do not bite.

Since few blast years ago, after each blast, we watched a shameless face in front of the exposed camera, doing a lot of hand exercise, and uttering the words of authority, "We will tackle all with iron/steel/brass and all kind of metallic hand," and keeps on going to, "... we will not rest until all terrorists are finished." Yet boom boom it goes... And not a statement before any... surprise! They just keep doing the same. The incompetent keep uttering threats.

This time it was Defense... Left unprotected... And the shameless face was Chaudhry of another variety, with a haggard look, the SSP CID, gives the statement in a manner not much different than earlier big claims, but getting carried away, "Mein in ki naslon ko ab nahi choroon ga!" TTP called -- as they promptly do -- and all their calls untraceable, claiming the responsibility, yet again, and see? Within 24 hours, another tragedy hit this time at Mastung, Quetta where 26 innocents were lined up and shot in cold blood. Not threat beforehand. They just do what they want to do. On the other side of law, they say a lot!
