Progressive Pakistan

Bride Adiba was strangled to death by in-laws in Shimshal,Gilgit-Baltistan.The body was left on river-bank.Though FIR was registered ,murderers were apprehended yet they were released on bail.This exposes our rotten justice system.Hence the threat posed to lives of women by domestic violence can't be condoned.  How could in-laws kill the newly wed bride ,wrapped the body in the blanket ,left in open and painted it as suicide. This case should thoroughly be looked into.Shame on those men and women who are involved in her murder.  Daughters are wed with a dream that they will live happily and become torch bearers of up coming generation being the first and primary institution BUT who knows that they will be choked to death like #Adiba by in-laws.  Raise your voice against domestic violence before it's too late. No one deserves to be killed this way.This is murder in cold blood.

  The war stricken Afghanistan remained in crisis because it's land has been used as a battlefield by big powers and their proxies for vested interests.No one thought of Afghan people beyond politics. The festering wound and worsening situation in Afghanistan demands magnanimity with the Afghan people.Hundreds of thousands of people from peripheries thronged into Kabul.  Women are not allowed to work in offices,young girls are sent back to home from colleges and universities.People are stuck at airport.Afghan Youth has been seen trying to board US Airforce Plane as they want to flee Afghanistan for better future and opportunities. No one can anticipate the future as people are going through uncertainity and chaos.Atleast we should feel the ordeal people of Afghanistan are going through. It is the most difficult time under Taliban's rage.Prayers for the people of Afghanistan.  Flabbergasted to see some people in Pakistan among proponents of Taliban even after APS attack Peshawar

  Some pals raise a few eye brows on road blockades during Muharram.Let me disect it in few dimensions. Jalose routes are permitted and scheduled by Administration one or two days before processions and we follow the designated routes.If traffic is not properly managed it is failure on behalf of traffic police and concerned echelons. Muharram proccessions are staged throughout the world.In western countries traffic and route planning are good enough to divert the traffic smoothly.Therefore we see people on protests right infront of White House America. When we have a visit of Sir Agha Khan in Hunza or PM Pakistan in GB ,their protocol and prerogative is always followed ,routes are priorly decided to avoid congestion but traffic jams are obvious due to poor town planning and traffic strategies. We used to see protests every next day on roads in Pakistan and across the globe against discrimination ,prejudice,price hikes,inflation  and human rights violation.We had a sit-in of 120 days in
