After a struggle of 2 years and fighting legally in courts, an elite school Ecole des Lumieres working in residential area of F-11/3, Islamabad, the street where I live, has been finally evicted. The school despite charging heavy fees has been working for years in residential area to pay less rent in residential vis-a-vis commercial areas and making residents’ life miserable with traffic jams in street, cars parked, loud music, etc. Even they’ve been paying electricity rates of homes instead of commercial rates.
Ironically, the school is run by a French lady and students are taught ethics while its owners kept stealing electricity and getting undue advantage of rent while making lives of neighbours miserable. Their staff was type of goons who used to terrorise street residents whenever we raised any complaints.
@CDAthecapital was hand in gloves with violators and did nothing on numerous complaints and meetings. Final relief came from the court, alhamdolillah.
Explosions from Iranian territory being heard as far as Jiwani, Balochistan, Pakistan. United States and Israel have bombed Chabahar and Bandar Abbas a while ago. Villages of Pasabandar and Gotar Fazgah close to the Pakistani border in Iran have been targeted.
⛽️Petroleum price hike: necessity and strategic correction
The increase in petroleum prices is not arbitrary it is economically inevitable. With global diesel prices around $280 per barrel and the government bearing nearly Rs 60 billion in weekly subsidies, continuing blanket relief is fiscally unsustainable and risks serious economic instability.
At the same time, this is a strategic shift. Instead of inefficient universal subsidies where both motorcycle users and 1300cc car owners benefited equally the focus is now on targeted support. Subsidies should go to goods transport, public transport, small farmers (up to 25 acres) and motorcycle users, ensuring resources reach those who actually need them.
Despite global tensions and supply pressures through routes like the Strait of Hormuz, Pakistan has avoided panic no rush at petrol pumps, no hoarding and no supply disruption. This reflects effective management.
Data further strengthens the case: despite recent price hikes, petrol consumption has not decreased. In fact, March 2026 consumption rose by 19% compared to March 2025, showing that blanket subsidies were neither efficient nor effective.
Going forward, demand side measures should complement this policy. A smart lockdown markets closing by 9 pm, restaurants by 11 pm and limited physical attendance in institutions can reduce unnecessary fuel consumption without halting economic activity.
This is not just a price hike it is a necessary structural correction ending inefficient subsidies, protecting the vulnerable and maintaining economic stability.

ٹھٹھہ میں جہانگیر خان ترین صاحب کی 15 سالہ ریسرچ بالآخر رنگ لے آئی!
ٹھٹھہ میں پہلی مرتبہ گنے پر پھول لگنے لگے، اسکا فائدہ یہ ہوتا ہے کہ گنے کی علاقے کی مناسبت سے نئی اقسام پیدا کی جاسکتی ہیں جس سے پیداوار میں 10 سے 50 فیصد تک اضافہ ہوسکتا ہے
یہ پاکستان کی اپنی نئی نسل ہے
Oh yes these neo feudal lords are ravaging establishing environmental destructive ethanol factories and selling unhealthy A1 milk are ironically our heroes now !!! They're sponsoring irrigation of sugar cane on huge swathes of water deprived lands to satiate their profit motives
search results confirm that Pak has avoided roughly $12 billion worth of LNG imports in recent years due to the rapid expansion of rooftop and utility-scale solar. This doesn’t suit various mafias in Pak so you and I and all Pakistanis who opted for solar are being punished
@yogurtbeaches@aliktareen Not only that the milk they are selling from their so called exotic breeds milk machines, is toxic A1 milk which ironically causes Autism and plethora of other health issues.

@aliktareen You and daddy need to stop poisoning the people of Punjab from your alcohol factories and sugar mills. But you never think about that do you?

After the alcohol factory, now Pig daddy of @aliktareen is also rapidly buying land near Rahim Yar Khan to build another sugar mill.
Will these sons of bitches ever get tired of poisoning us?
Sugarcane is harmful for the land.
Jkt grp is wagging war against the people of Punjab.
