A blue passport is an insult to the very idea of citizenship. Abolish it.
If you believe you and your children are entitled to a passport that places you above the people you claim to serve, then perhaps you’ve already decided where your loyalty lies. Safe travels.
Blue Pakistani passports should only be for officials on diplomatic assignments -- and that too only until their term lasts.
Why should every MNA, MPA & senator along with their families get them? This is also a form of corruption. These undue privileges undermine democracy.

Blatant expression of greed of luxury by shameless #PTI led KP parliamentarians at a time when their founder @ImranKhanPTI is in solitary confinement from more than 3 years! https://t.co/tO0Qqg6WYS
@MarioNawfal Free Dr. Shakeel Afridi. The American public and government ought to be stone ashamed that we have not tied Dr. Afridi's situation to the Iran situation. As it's putatively a fight against terrorism. We will get the world we deserve when we leave people behind.
🚨 Crude oil is at $70 globally, yet people in 🇵🇰 Pakistan see no relief. The Government raised prices by Rs 137 the same day, favoring oil firms and pumps.
Now when rates could fall, the hybrid setup passes the burden to citizens instead of cutting margins for oil marketing companies and dealers.
⚠️ Petrol prices have dropped from Rs458.41 to Rs300 per litre, and diesel from Rs520.35 to Rs312 per litre, yet the prices of essential items such as vegetables, meat, milk, pulses, oil, ghee and eggs remain unchanged. The government should review this issue and ensure that the public benefits from lower fuel costs.
Since @VP is w/ the Pakisani (mediator) perhaps he can ask about Dr. Alfridi who led us to Osama Bin Laden and the Pakistani’s were so mad they threw him in prison and we “left him behind” - shame on us
If Pakistan is truly helping the US with peace initiatives in the Middle East, now is the time for Pakistan to release Dr. Shakil Afridi from prison. He is the man who helped the CIA locate Osama bin Laden in 2011.
عالمی منڈی میں تیل کی قیمت 70/75 ڈالر تو ملک میں صرف 75 روپے کم کیوں کی گئی ہے۔ پٹرول قیمت وہی کی جانی چاہئیے جو ایران جنگ سے پہلے تھی 220/225 روپے۔ آج کی کمی کے بعد بھی اب بھی 300 روپے کا پٹرول ہے جو غریب اور مڈل کلاس دونوں کے بس میں نہیں۔ وزیراعظم شہباز صاحب سے عوام کے مزید احساس کی توقع ہے۔
ایران جنگ سے قبل تیل کی عالمی قیمت 76 ڈالر تھی۔ معاہدہ ہونے کے اعلان کیساتھ ہی اب تک یہ عالمی قیمت کم ہو کر 75 ڈالر پر آ چکی ہے۔ محترم وزیراعظم صاحب، "خاطر خواہ کمی" وہی ہو گی کہ پٹرول کی ملکی قیمت وہی کی جائے جو جنگ سے قبل تھی۔ دس بیس پچاس روپے وغیرہ کی کمی سے حکوت عوام کو نہ ٹرخائے اور اپنے ریونیو کے خسارے کو غریب عوام کی جیب سے مزید پورا نہ کرے۔
آج عالمی منڈی میں پیٹرول عمران خان کے دور سے کم و بیش 30 فیصد کم قیمت پر میسر ہے تو حکومت کو فوراً عوام کو ریلیف دینا چاہیے۔
یاد رہے کہ رجیم چینج آپریشن کے وقت قیمت 150 روپے فی لیٹر تھی۔
@mjgranger1@TimesofIsrael You insist on giving this administration a lot more credit for intelligent handling of Middle East affairs than they deserve.
If they’re so amazing why has NO ONE raised the subject of getting Dr. Shakil Afridi freed from a Pakistani jail?
Trump PROMISED to free him 10 yrs ago.
