@Asad_Ashah We have one such leader but he imprisoned. Bhutto was also one of those leaders but killed. These leaders didn't have right people with them to work on their vision.

جن خواتین و حضرات کو کمر درد کا ایشو رہتا ہے یا ریڑھ کی ہڈی کے مہروں میں پرابلم ہے، یا موٹاپا بڑھ رہا ہے تو وہ یہ کلپ ضرور دیکھیں. مفاد عامہ کیلئے دوسروں کو بھی شئیر کردیں.

Former Prime Minister Imran Khan in Conversation with Members of his Family - Adiala Jail (July 1, 2025)

Note: This is a repost of the tweet from July 1, 2025.

“Instead of going through the formality of introducing a 27th constitutional amendment through a sham parliament, it would be better to openly declare a monarchy, because what exists today is outright dictatorship, forcibly imposed on the country.

The very foundation of Pakistan was laid on La Ilaha Illallah (There is no god except Allah), a declaration that liberates mankind from all forms of slavery. Our country was freed from British rule through immense sacrifices to establish a nation where every citizen would enjoy personal liberties. But the situation is completely the opposite. A mafia seeks to keep the entire nation enslaved. I am willing to endure solitary confinement in a dark prison cell, but I will never accept slavery. And that is my message to everyone: it is better to choose imprisonment than to live in such bondage. What is the value of freedom if, outside these walls, we are not truly free? Iqbal’s Shaheen (eagle) soars high, it does not live in servitude.

I give this call to the entire nation, especially to the workers and supporters of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf: Launch a movement after Ashura against the tyrannical system that has gripped this country. For me, death would be better than accepting a system built on slavery.

Every attempt is being made to suppress my voice so that my message does not reach the people and no one dares to stand up against oppression. But I will resist tyranny until my very last breath. I have complete faith in my Creator that this shadow of injustice will soon be lifted from Pakistan.

There are four pillars integral to any democracy: the right to vote, the rule of law, moral integrity, and a free press. The 26th Constitutional Amendment has effectively dismantled all four:

1. The Right to Vote: A dictator has no need for public mandate; he governs through force. The illegitimate assemblies formed via Forms-47, and the subsequent distribution of reserved seats, have only reinforced the perception among the people that their votes hold no value.

2. The Rule of Law: The judiciary has been reduced to a subordinate department of the government. Courts are packed with handpicked judges, while independent judges have been silenced. This is a hallmark of martial law, not democracy.

3. Moral Fabric of Society: This amendment has buried all ethical values. Individuals who are not true representatives of the people now occupy seats in the assemblies. Horse-trading of assembly members continues with impunity, and even the judiciary operates under the thumb of this mafia.

4. Free Media: Under a dictatorship, the media is bound in chains. Freedom of expression has been entirely curbed. Independent journalists are being targeted, while the rest have been bought off.

Peaceful protest is a fundamental democratic and constitutional right. Yet, 26 of our MPAs were suspended for staging a protest in the Punjab Assembly. I commend Ahmad Bhachar and all PTI MPAs who had the courage to challenge these pharaohs. Until our 26 members are reinstated, our elected representatives should hold their own assembly outside. The Form-47-based assemblies do not represent the people, in any case.”

If you've got school aged kids, this is one to watch.

The UAE is one of the first countries to launch a K-12 AI curriculum. That means kids as young as 5 or 6 years old are now taking AI classes. I sat down with Education Minister @SarahAmiri1 to find out the vision for the program and what exactly it'll look like:

[Tariq Saeed Butt @TariqSaeedButt]

@BeckyCNN @SarahAmiri1 6 months back a program on the same subject on BBC /sky. UK edu, 2 specialists,1 Dutchd other may from Norway or any European country. They were in agreement to revamp the whole curriculum and add AI from the very beginning. They said this future and we should be able start now

This headline tells you whose daughter she is. It tells you nothing about the Professor.

Prof. Dr. Nighat Shah should be judged on merit, qualifications, performance and JSMU/JPMC’s institutional need — not her parentage.

She is FRCOG, FCPS, MRCOG, MCPS and MHPE, and returned to the public sector after around 15 years at AKUH to build and lead JPMC’s Gynae & Obstetrics Unit 9B.

Look at what has been built in barely three years:

• A previously vacant gynae unit developed into a major teaching and clinical department, with postgraduate and subspecialty training and international research collaboration.

• 39 postgraduate doctors currently being supervised, together with their research.

• Public-sector infertility and assisted-reproduction services, alongside new menopause, adolescent-health and early-assessment clinics.

• A major expansion of family-planning work in tertiary hospitals through training, service development and collaboration, including Autaq, a dedicated male family-planning initiative.

• Leadership in tackling maternal mortality, including collaboration with NICVD/SICVD so that pregnant women with serious cardiac disease can receive specialised multidisciplinary care.

• Advocacy that helped address the absence of neonatal intensive-care capacity for critically ill newborns.

And all this has been achieved in three years, with limited resources.

Pakistan already has a severe shortage of highly qualified senior medical academics. Universities routinely retain exceptional professionals after retirement where their expertise, teaching and supervision remain necessary. JSMU and other public medical universities have done so in other cases as well. PMDC has specifically enabled contractual engagement of retired medical faculty up to age 65, subject to institutional need and protection of junior faculty progression.

So, yes, scrutinise the appointment. Ensure due process. Ensure that no deserving junior faculty member is unfairly blocked.

But retaining scarce expertise is not nepotism merely because the professional happens to have a well-known father.

A family name should neither qualify nor disqualify anyone.

Judge the Professor on her record, and more importantly, the need of the Institution.

Respect professionals. Respect merit.

Shehbaz sharif said to PTI, let's work for a national charter. Do what faisal sultan is asking for in terms of @ImranKhanPTI eyes treatment. Or tell why it would be against national interest. Otherwise it confirms your desire of a national charter is just fake.
