Wrong guess. It’s not about Cuckoo’s – continue reading!
I have this bad habit of roaming around the city with friends on the weekends and like all Lahoris, dining out in the end with no good entertainment options available. Being fed up of the exquisite restaurants, all stereo-typed to the same M.M.Alam road restaurants; I […]
The direction less PPP government seems to be dropping in darkness. The 100 days treated as a litmus test for a nascent government to prove its willingness and capacity to perform have been wasted.

Iftikhar Chaudhry took oath on PCO in 2002 and now rejected the PCO in 2007?The PCO which Musharraf presented in 2002 was not declared null and void by the Supreme Court of that time. The PCO of 2007 declared martial law in the country and abrogated the constitution. It was anti-constitutional, anti-state and clearly against […]
All the channels and newspapers in the country have received a notice from the authorities saying they should not show the snapshot or news of any deposed judge before prior permission. Any talk shows or discussions on the Judicial crisis or the deposed judges have been banned.
The empire strikes back again on media attacking with […]
