Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s speech exposes that there was no constitutional breakdown, nor a grave emergency.
Bilawal says negotiations were succeeding, and even today, urged that the federal government to continue talks and find a “middle path”. If negotiations were possible then, and a middle ground remains possible even today, why was an elected provincial government dismantled in the name of an emergency? His speech destroys the purported justification for emergency and governor’s rule.
Article 234 requires that the provincial government cannot be carried on in accordance with the Constitution, and Article 232 requires a grave emergency beyond the provincial government’s control.
The people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa deserve better than to have their elected government treated as a political bargaining chip.
@koolkopper History always act as guide and tells you nothing is new in the present era!!! Well, we never understand the lessons from the history especially in our country.
October has a history of changing Pakistan’s political course. On 7 October 1958, martial law was imposed; on 27 October, Ayub Khan ousted Iskander Mirza. On 12 October 1999, Musharraf overthrew Nawaz Sharif’s government. Now, in October 2026, an emergency is being considered in KP. Another chapter in Pakistan’s chequered history, a country that has remained in perpetual political turmoil, with history repeating itself and the people paying the price.
No accountability for 25 million children out of school, 40% poverty rate, HIV epidemic in Sindh & Southern Punjab, war in Yemen & security collapse in Balochistan. Governance & terror is only invoked when an elected govt insists on access to their jailed leader. Shameful!
An 18-year-old girl, Maham, was allegedly tortured to death by her own family members in Lahore’s Sanda area.
Police say the victim was subjected to severe torture, including with pipes and iron rods, while initial investigations also revealed alleged burns caused by hot iron and a knife.
The victim’s father, two brothers and sister have been arrested, while further investigation is underway.
The Federal Constitutional Court’s judgment on workplace harassment limits the ambit of the law to only “sexual harassment” and appears to increase the burden of proof on the complainant
It is easily one of the most regressive judgments related to gender-based abuse in recent times and fails victims of harassment, including women. It is poorly reasoned, disconnected with how workplace harassment actually occurs, and ignores important sections of the law it is supposed to interpret
Yet another example of how the FCC experiment is a complete and utter disaster
سوات میں حواتین کا یہ احتجاج ایک یتم لڑکی کیلئے ہورہا ہے۔ چھٹی جماعت کی لڑکی "ایشال " جھولے کیلئے پڑوسی گھر میں گئی وہاں درندہ صفت انسان جو فارسٹ میں ملازم ہے اس کو کمرے میں لے گیا اس کو ریپ کیا اور پھر تشدد سے اس کی ہڈیاں توڑ دی اور اخر میں گولی ماردی۔
ملزم کو پولیس نے گرفتار کیا لیکن اگلے دن اس کو مجسٹریٹ کے سامنے پیش کرکے جیل میں بھجوادیا۔ لوگ کہتے ہیں کہ یہ ایک favor کی گئی۔۔کیونکہ پشاور میں گھر میں داخل ہونے والے چار ملزموں کو مشکوک طریقے سے جہنم واصل خیا گیا۔
لوگ فوری انصاف مانگتے ہیں۔ مقتول بچی کا والد کہتا ہے میں گواہ کہاں سے ڈھونڈو۔۔۔۔
Unprecedented that women have taken to streets in #Madyan to protest the rape of a 9 year old girl. There is an epidemic of sexual violence in the country taking the lives of children, and women. There needs to be mass mobilisation against this in the country. #EndFemicideNOW
RIP to the 2,976 people that lost their lives on 9/11.
And RIP to the 3.7 million people in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Pakistan who paid the ultimate price for a crime they did not commit.
The father of Ishal Fatima, who had been seeking justice for his daughter in the kidnapping and rape case, passed away yesterday without seeing justice served.
غيرقانونی روڈ پر ريڑھی لگانے پر ڈپٹی کمشنر صاحبہ کا غصہ۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔۔
کیا ان ممبران اسمبلی وزرا بااثر وڈیروں کو بھی تھپڑ مارے ہیں جنھوں نے اربوں روپے کی کئی کئی ایکڑ زمینوں پر قبضے کئے
مبشر مقصود اعوان کی والدہ کو پولیس اہلکار دھکے مارتا ہوا بازو سے پکڑ کر گھسیٹتا ہوا کمرے سے نکال رہا ہے کہ ہمیں یہاں چوری کرنے دو
پنجاب میں ظلم کی بدترین مثالیں قائم کی جا رہی ہیں، پنجاب والو اپنی عزت کی خاطر نکلو !!
Saba Mehboob, 21, #Christian woman shot dead in her #Rawalpindi home for rejecting a #Muslim neighbour’s advances. Her teenage brother then abducted & threatened.
Just another day, another atrocity against Christian women in #Pakistan.
