I like the gym because seeing the same 5 people every day and never speaking to them is the kind of socializing I enjoy

More than 13K houses demolished, 40K+ ppl homeless in Bari Imam, Saidpur, Nurpur but nobody's speaking up, nobody's voicing for the voiceless. Visuals are heartbreaking and what's more concerning is how stone hearted we've become.💔

[Pedro Sánchez @sanchezcastejon]

Los alto al fuego siempre son una buena noticia. Sobre todo si conducen a una paz justa y duradera. Pero el alivio momentáneo no puede hacernos olvidar el caos, la destrucción y las vidas perdidas.

El Gobierno de España no aplaudirá a quienes incendian el mundo porque se presenten con un cubo.

Lo que toca ahora: diplomacia, legalidad internacional y PAZ.

What keeps poor countries poor? This picture always reminds me of one important reason: "Resource misallocation".

Here's the story.

Eager to help his young country, Dr. Abdus Salam, the future Nobelist, returned to Pakistan in 1951 as a 25 years old star of the Physics world.

really sad shehzad that all those pti people are low yet not low enough to go after you :(

[Shehzad Ghias Shaikh @Shehzad89]

From sending people to MasjideNabvi to hound politicians to celebrating the harassment of Shazeb Khanzada's family PTI has repeatedly shown that they not only encourage but fully support mob behaviour.

These tactics are designed to silence journalists. Cannot be condemned enough

HAT'S OFF TO FAISALABAD CROWD. 🔥🫡

[M. Jibran Nasir 🇵🇸 @MJibranNasir]

1. Didn't know elected members of an opposing party were abducted and coerced into forming a forward block to have the mayor elected in New York like in Karachi.

2. Zohran ran for freezing rent, not demolishing thousands of houses in the name of cleaning nullahs, promising alternative accommodation but giving none.

3. Zohran ran for free buses, not burying citizens under unreasonably high Challans in a city while major arteries are dug up for buses but projects remain incomplete for years, major crossings blocked and many signals malfunctioning.

4. Zohran campaigned for freeing taxi drivers from debt. In Karachi Green Line workers are without salaries since months. Even employees in essential sectors like health suffer. House Officers of KMDC/Abbasi Shaheed for years get stipends only after Court petitions. Many remain unpaid after 10 months of service.

5. Zohran ran for city-owned stores with controlled prices for perishables. In Sindh over 13.7 million wheat bags rotted in Govt warehouses, while millions more went missing, costing billions.

6. Zohran wanted to make food carts more affordable by helping food cart runners own their licenses. Here in Karachi rather than regulating carts and hawkers through licenses we regulate them through bhattas and beats and later demolish everything in the name of encroachment.

7. Buildings and malls go up in flames but without any technical or fire department report being made public about integrity and safety of surviving structure, they’re given a facelift and reopened for business and accomodation.

8. Sindh Building Control Authority remains inefficient and corrupt, waiting for buildings to collapse and people to die before surveys.

9. When was the last time amenity plots were allotted in Karachi for Schools or Universities? The biggest school networks operate from houses built for residences as the city lacks a designated education district.

10. Zohran ran a campaign appealing to collective humanity and compassion and eliminating differences. Here every critique of PPP is deliberately labelled as bias against Sindhis by its social media team, inciting ethnic hatred.

11. Your party holds the Presidency, CM office and majority mayoral offices in Sindh yet devolution of powers remains a dream as UC Chairmen’s powers are limited and despite Mayor being Chairman of KWSB, its budget is controlled by ministries.

12. Zohran wants to regulate industries involving animals like horse carriages to ensure humane treatment. In Karachi, the Mayor keeps native and exotic animals trapped in small dirty cages, claiming they’re cheap entertainment.

13. In the first 7 months of this year at least 169 people lost their lives in crashes with heavy vehicles—63 by trailers, 37 by tankers, 34 by dumpers, 35 by buses—while rules for vehicle fitness were amended but remain unenforced.

14. Beautifying parks with affordable facilities for citizens is encouraged, but commercialising them with facilities only the middle class can afford is privatization and gentrification of public space.

15. Police continue custodial torture, deaths and fake encounters without reform. Sindh Police has failed to implement its own law by failing to make Public Safety and Police Complaints Commissions functional.

16. Whether Zohran delivers or not remains to be seen. But your party has ruled Sindh since 2008, controlling major municipal functions of Karachi through KWSB and SWMB for over a decade—and failed.

So good to see int cricket back in Faisalabad. Iqbal Stadium hands down one of the funnest venues to watch cricket at in Pakistan

[s @saad2647]

International cricket has returned to Faisalabad after 17 years today. The city remains high spirited, the stadium is packed while breathing kept getting trickier in all these years.

Normalised for far too long.

Been a few days in Faisalabad. Itchy eyes, bad cold and everyone around is coughing and going about their lives because what else can they do? This is no way normal.

[Multan Sultans @MultanSultans]

MULTAN SULTANS STATEMENT

The PCB last month sent a legal notice to Multan Sultans, demanding that our owner Ali Tareen:
•Retracts all recent critical statements
•Issues a public apology to the PSL management

The notice threatens termination of our franchise agreement and a lifetime blacklist of Mr. Tareen from owning any cricket team in the future.

Since taking over the Sultans, Ali Tareen has invested billions of rupees and personally carried losses of over PKR 7 billion, while building academies and creating opportunities for young cricketers across Pakistan.

Every statement he has made has been in the best interest of the PSL, urging the league to aim higher and do better.

For the PCB management to treat constructive criticism as a crime is outrageous. It demonstrates the pettiness of the current management and clearly shows that the PSL is not open to questions or accountability, even from those who have given the most to make it stronger.

Silencing honest feedback is not how great leagues are built.

His commitment to Pakistani cricket is unwavering, and his only goal is to help the PSL reach the level its players and fans deserve.

[s @saad2647]

Karachi’s tale is sad, and hopeless, despite being the only metropolis in a country of 240m. The city is dysfunctional at every level. There genuinely needs to be a revolt to kick ppp & it’s feudals out.

One may hate Estab/NL or any party entity but for ppp it’s beyond🤮
