An eternal optimist who believes that the land of pure will become pure soon!Destiny has chosen a leader!I believe its the great Imran Khan. #PTIfamily
کہتے تھے گلگت بلتستان کو لاہور بنا دیں گے، بنانا تھا تو جب پہلی بار وزیراعظم بنے تب بنا دیتے، جب تیسری بار وزیراعظم بنے تب بنا دیتی، چوتھی بار بھائی وزیراعظم بنا اب بنا دیں، آپ تو قصور کو لاہور نہیں بنا سکے۔ بلاول زرداری
I have spoken to Dr. Yasmin Rashid’s family.
Her spinal condition has deteriorated to the point where she can barely walk more than 60–70 steps.
High time for the state to get off its high horse and grant relief to political prisoners who continue to suffer out of nothing but political fear and vengeance.
Keeping elderly and unwell opponents behind bars does not demonstrate strength. It demonstrates insecurity.
It’s is the same Dr. Yasmin Rashid who supported allowing Nawaz Sharif to travel abroad when his platelet count had fallen, although suspiciously.
She showed compassion to a political opponent. Today, she is being denied that same humanity.
A government that fears sick political prisoners says far more about itself than it does about its opponents.
Do you really expect a broken political party like PTI, with its leader imprisoned, to single-handedly bring down rogue generals and somehow secure Imran Khan's release? This can not be the responsibility of one party alone. It has to be a collective effort from the entire Pakistani nation. If people want change, they must be willing to stand up for it themselves. But sadly no one is willing to pay the price for Haqeeqi Azadi except Imran Khan.
This budget should make your blood boil. Let me show you why.
Pakistan's interest payments this year: Rs. 8,054 billion.
Pakistan's entire development budget, roads, dams, hospitals, schools, everything: Rs. 1,000 billion.
Eight rupees go to debt service for every one rupee invested in this country. This is not a budget. This is a confession.
Understand what this debt is. It was not borrowed to build Pakistan. Over the years, it was borrowed by corrupt politicians who were simultaneously busy building their own empires, inside and outside of Pakistan.
Now you and I are paying interest on their corruption.
Government will borrow another Rs. 7,000 billion on top of everything that already exists.
Borrow to pay interest on previous borrowing.
This is a debt trap and we are in it.
And they took out full page newspaper adverts at your expense to celebrate it.
Now let's look at Bangladesh. Same region. Same starting point. Very different choices.
Bangladesh total budget: $76 billion. Pakistan: $60 billion.
Bangladesh development spending: $24 billion. Pakistan: $3.6 billion.
Bangladesh interest payments: $10.4 billion. Pakistan: $29 billion.
Bangladesh education budget: $6.9 billion. Pakistan, federal and all four provinces combined: $3.5 billion.
They have 83 million fewer people than us and still spend twice as much educating them.
Bangladesh defence: $3.5 billion. Pakistan defence: $10.8 billion.
We spend 3 times more on defence than Bangladesh and our interest bill is 8 times their entire defence budget.
They are spending 6.5 times more on building their country than we are. And they are paying a third of what we pay in interest.
Now look at what this has done to our people.
Pakistan's GDP and Bangladesh's GDP are almost identical, around $450 billion each.
But Pakistan has 83 million more people.
Bangladesh's income/person: $2,621.
Pakistan: $1,901.
There taka is 122/dollar
Our Rs is 278/dollar
Poverty in Pakistan: 44.7%.
Poverty in Bangladesh: 5.9%.
Literacy in Pakistan: 60% (doubtful)
Literacy in Bangladesh: 77%
Once again our interest payments:
Rs. 8,054 billion.
Our defence budget: Rs. 3,000 billion. Interest payments are 2.7 times the defence budget.
This is far more damning than anything else!
I want to say something clearly. If this trajectory is not broken in the next two to three years, the security of this country will become unaffordable.
This is not a political statement.
This is basic maths.
These numbers are not accidental.
This is what elite capture looks like.
Wake up.

@Asif5425@khurram_aziz123 And not to forget the pathetic fielding he has had to endure from his team mates. Both Wasim & Waqar would have had at least 50% more wickets had we been a decent fielding side.
So called "intellectual" at least in his own mind. Imagine this is the level of questioning and the standard of mainstream journalism. If nothing else, Klasra has spent at least 3 decades in this field and the best he could come up with is comparing terrorists with establishment

رؤف کلاسرا نے خود کش حملہ آوروں کو اور ریاست کو ایک صف میں کھڑا کر دیا ہے فرماتے ہیں کہ ماضی میں ن لیگ پیپلز پارٹی شکوہ کرتی تھیں کہ ہمیں خیبرپختونخواہ میں کمپین نئیں کرنی دی جاتی ہم پر خود کش ہوتے ہیں جبکہ پی ٹی آئی پر خودکش نہیں ہوتے آج پی ٹی آئی کے ساتھ GB میں ریاست وہی کچھ کر رہی ہے ماضی میں انہیں اجازت نہیں تھی آج پی ٹی آئی کو اجازت نہیں ہے 👏
سبی کاظمی نے خود کو 50 ڈگری ٹمپریچر گرمی میں ایک کمرے میں بند کر کے پاکستانیوں کو بتایا کہ ایسے عمران خان اڈیالہ جیل میں آپ کی آزادی کیلئے بیٹھا ہوا ۔۔۔۔۔۔
I will never forget the response of the nation at that Jalsa when the Cipher was revealed — as if a mountain had fallen upon us. I was there on that stage, with tears in my eyes.
The pain and sense of betrayal in Imran Khan’s voice were unmistakable.
Yet despite all the denials and propaganda, the nation never doubted him.
And Allah is Al-Haq.

Now that whole nation can see the contents of the Cypher. Here is what I wrote in my statement to the JIT set up to investigate the cypher" when faced with threats from a foreign power and interference in internal affairs of the country, the national leadership taking the nation into confidence, is the right thing to do". Which self respecting man who believes in sovereignty of his nation would think otherwise? The worst comment from one of the members of the JIT was that we have recieved many threats like this in the past. I replied that if we did and stayed quite, that means we had no self respect!
Amidst such serious issues engulfing the country and the region, we are spending "intellectual capital" on settling which cuisine is better, KHI or LHR! Then we ask ourselves why we are where we are...Shameful!
لاہور میں تین دن گزارے، بہت سے لوگوں سے ملاقات کی،۔لوگوں کے جذبات عمران خان کے لئے انتہائی مخلص ہیں جبکہ مریم نواز اور ان کو لانے والوں سے شدید نفرت ہے۔
