After 35 days of protests in India, even after facing police baton charges and tear gas, the Indian Education Minister has finally resigned. The difference between India and Pakistan is that India still has at least some democracy, whereas Pakistan is essentially a dictatorship.
Huge respect to India’s Gen Z for standing their ground and winning this battle against Modi's Government.
The logic some Pakistanis give to make this illegitimate government seem acceptable is mind-boggling. It’s like saying Firoun wasn’t that bad because he at least spared the girls from being killed.
Maryam locked up many women but at least she tweeted for women’s rights. ???????
In Khairpur another 25 children and two doctor staff have tested positive for HIV.
In Larkana, eight children are being treated for advanced HIV.
The more testing we do the more we will find out. The more we can save people and put them on life saving ARTs.
The gentleman who bows his head and stands behind a 19-year-old boy as party chairman is, ironically, against giving ordinary Pakistani citizens the right to vote at 18.
Qamar Zaman Kaira is sinking to a new low every single day.
An 8th-grade student in Sahiwal was gang-raped by three accused, who then slit his throat with a sharp weapon. The victim, the only brother of four sisters, was left in a field where his body was largely consumed by animals.
Only a small portion of his skull and a small leg bone were recovered. He was identified through his shoes, school bag, and motorcycle. There are too many monsters all over this country.
Quienes consideran que ondear la bandera de un Estado es “incitar al odio”, o han perdido el juicio o han sido cegados por su propia ignominia.
Lamine solo ha expresado la solidaridad por Palestina que sentimos millones de españoles. Otro motivo más para estar orgullosos de él.
This is the so-called ‘political upbringing’ they proudly talk about? Insult your elders, speak disrespectfully to women, and then expect a quick ‘Sorry Sir’ from Shazia to clean it all up. Political arrogance isn’t leadership
Shazia Mari spent her entire life flattering the zardari family and mocking their opponents just to please them. It’s so satisfying to see her being insulted by the very same people.
The arrogance, the mindset, the intolerance.
These 8 seconds are enough for any sane person to understand what kind of monsters PMLN & PPP really are.
"One of the reasons Pakistan doesn't even "need" martial law anymore is because there are now enough civilian collaborators in the media, higher judiciary, and political class , & none of them seem to feel their constant loss of professional dignity by the state" @MJibranNasir
This is THE most important graph to understand the dysfunction of South Asian and more specifically Pakistani cities. Imprint this into your mind if you've ever wondered why your city looks the way it does.
If Ayub’s decade was truly a halcyon period, one must ask why Pakistan twice turned to the IMF for balance-of-payments support — in 1965 and again in 1968. The timing of the first arrangement is telling: the Stand-By Agreement of March 1965 preceded the war with India by six months. Pakistan had already run headlong into its now-familiar external constraint well before the guns fell silent on the western front; the war served less as a cause than as a convenient alibi. The second IMF arrangement, in October 1968, arrived as Ayub’s era drew to its ignominious close — a fitting bookend, perhaps, to a decade of growth that had conspicuously failed to become development.
PMLN can afford to financially kill millions of people in Pakistan with unbearable inflation and barbaric taxes because they know they donot need votes to come in power.
Can maths, logic or economics explain the variance between Pak and rest of comparable economies. Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are also fragile economies. So variance can only be explained in political economy.
🇮🇳 is a Democracy
🇱🇰 is a Democracy
🇧🇩 is a Democracy
It’s government are responsive or sensitive to people’s pain and suffering.
🇵🇰 is NOT representative democracy
Pak Govt is not concerned with people’s welfare or struggles.
That’s the only explanation of Govt petrol price increases.
