Twice, I was graciously offered a gratis blue passport by the Govt—first as one of the country's highest taxpayers, and again this year as Chairman of one of its largest exporters. I respectfully declined both times. By the grace of Almighty Allah, my green Pakistani passport has always been a matter of pride and has served me well across the world
Elites of Islamabad quietly cheered the brutal demolition of poor neighbourhoods — all perfectly 'legal', they said.But the moment the same law touches One Constitution Avenue skyscraper, it turns bearable. Law for the poor. Exception for the elite.
PEMRA has issued a show-cause notice to Geo News for airing content related to the legendary subcontinent singer Asha Bhosle.
It has always been customary to revisit and celebrate the work of iconic artists when reporting on them. In fact, for an artist of Asha Bhosle’s stature, we should have shared even more of her timeless and memorable songs than we did.
Yet, Pakistan’s electronic media regulator, Pemra, has chosen to restrict this.
Art, like knowledge, is a shared heritage of humanity and it should not be confined by borders. Asha Bhosle herself admired Pakistan’s legendary singer Noor Jahan, whom she fondly called her “elder sister.” She collaborated with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and brought to life the poetry of great Urdu poets like Nasir Kazmi.
In times of war and conflict, art and artists should not become casualties. Intellectuals, musicians, and creators are often the very voices that stand against hatred and division, and the ones who bring people closer together.
Wese its weird like everyone hates Pakistani courts, questions their decisions and criticises their judgments. But as soon as a verdict came in favour of Ali Zafar instead of Meesha Shafis everyone suddenly started believing in the courts judgment. Like be for real

اگر ہماری ٹیم، میڈیا مینیجر اور کپتان تگڑے ہوتے تو پوسٹ میچ پریس کانفرنس کا بائیکاٹ کرنے کی بجائے سلمان اۤغا کو وہاں بیٹھ کر صرف دو جملے کہنے چاہئے تھے کہ کرکٹ میں ہار جیت کھیل کا حصہ ہے مگر اصل اسکور 6-0 ہے جو تا قیامت نہیں بدلا جا ��کتا۔ اۤپ کا کپتان یہ دو جملے بول کر اۤجاتا تو اس ہار کے باوجود انڈیا میں کہرام برپا ہوجاتا، ماتم ہوتا: اجمل جامی

NO handshakes between Pakistan and Indian players. Both Indian batters walked off the field after the winning shot. Such is the politicisation of the game. Pathetic!
Shaukat Khanum has achieved a milestone by successfully performing an awake brain tumor surgery on a 6-year-old child. Imran Khan has the prayers of these childrens mothers, which is why he is not losing courage.
Just saw this 👇🏽
Unbelievable!
Wondering who dared to even imagine the unimaginable.
Independence Day without acknowledging the Icon who led the Muslims of India to make the seemingly impossible Possible !
