Series of Blasts in Karachi

Such a time has come when one thinks and waits for quite a time before believing upon the private media channels of Pakistan, but when I received numerous phone calls from the reliable acquaintances about the serial blasts in the megapolis of Karachi, only then I started believing the redoubtable situation, and the situation is getting graver, as the number of blasts increase.

Though the true situation is still unknown, but the reports are that six blasts have occured at different locations in Karachi, though the origin of the blasts seems to be Banaras Area of Karachi.  Six blasts have occurred in the areas of Banaras, Shahrah-e-Noor Jehan, Qusba Colony, and Mungho Pir. The earlier reports from media that say that two people have died, while more than 40 are injured, and the nature of blasts was through the time bombs.

There is complete mayhem in Karachi, as the people are rushing towards their homes for safety, and the roads are steadily wearing deserted looks, as the police and rangers are trying to getting the things under control. Nothing is clear and rumors are running high.

But the need of the hour is to remain calm and keep our senses.  By now, we Pakistanis must become habitual and we need not to get panicked, as this would only serve the purposes of the terrorists.

    Yes, there is total chaos in Karachi right now. Traffic is jam, and people are frantic as they don’t know how to reach to the safety of their homes and see their children.

    Media is having a field day again, as millions of Pakistanis are now increasing their viewership, and the ads are running at maximum cost.

    Media is driven by its own motives - Revenues and Profits - at any cost!

    This is an extremely condemnable incidence, which is clearly reflecting a new wave to diverge the thoughts in a direction of ethnic postulates.

    Aftab S. Alam Says:

    Media blinded by its selfish interests has become a fearmongering and propaganda instrument for the forces of evil bent upon destroying our national and ethnic unity; the very basis of our country. We must not play into the hands of our enemies, all enemies, declared and hidden.

    Mussarf recently claimed in karachi function that he has come out in public after a long period and since that day terroist activities have been started again. I am not saying that he ordered for it but surely there is some kind of synonmus attitude between them as soon as he come out from his den, jubilaition in terrorists circles start again.There is also blow to rehman malik who is claiming of grabbing lot of suicidial bombers owing to his vigilint performance is now clear to all.Zardari honey moon period is over after spending family vacation in greek and Paris so now let see how mr 10% would justify his worst political skills .He is surely here in a US mission for multiplying the social and national problems so people would never dare of thinking of good life here.happy moments for mussarf and his team as now zardari and CO is also sharing their curses too.

    As always I would reiterate that Musharraf can’t be blamed! Baaki sab kia doodh say dhulay hoay hain? Yaa aasman say utar kay aye hain?

    Those are doing it are senseless and probably not even muslims. Yet we blame musharraf for that! How stupid. All those people died, injured or in any way directly affected what did they have to do with musharraf? So those doing all these blasts are nt anti musharraf. They must be anti muslims and anti pakistan. Very important point but one needs to open up their eyes!

    I watched the news in Karachi. What striked me was GEO’s announcement of the news with Bomb Blast images and soundclips (not real) and painting KARACHI BOMB BLASTS! over it. I guess they mean what their slogan says GEO AND GEENAY DHO. (GEO WALLO KOW!)
