US-Israel Conspiracy Against Palestine And Iran | Mohsin Naqvi vs Maryam Nawaz Sharif | Sethi Say Sawal | Najam Sethi @najamsethi with @SyedaAyeshaNaz1 Watch Full Programe: youtu.be/uM3stixw1gs
Fear is an incredibly potent political tool. When people are scared, they are more susceptible to rationalizing hysteria and mass violence. Writes @Huzaimabukhari Read more👇 thefridaytimes.com/19-Apr-2024/fe… #politics #democracy #demagoguery #Hitler

The world's largest democracy heads to the polls today, and while the BJP is expected to sweep the elections to return to power for a third consecutive term, cracks are beginning to appear in the ruling party's electoral machinery, reports @anasalig thefridaytimes.com/19-Apr-2024/an…
An inquiry committee has been formed to probe Faiz Hameed's role. This is quite a serious matter. Faiz Hameed was the DG-C and DG of ISI; he is no ordinary person, says @Kamran_Yousaf Watch: youtube.com/live/ppsiQVTWh…
Top City's owner accused Faiz Hameed of raiding his house & allegedly, on orders of Gen Faiz, ISI personnel confiscated valuables, gold, jewellery, and cash & also roughed him up. This case is also pending in SC before CJP Isa, says @Kamran_Yousaf Watch: youtube.com/live/ppsiQVTWh…
I believe the army had no option with Faiz Hameed's case pending in the Supreme Court. On the other hand, when they are in charge of the inquiry, they will be able to dictate what and how much information should be released to the public, says @Kamran_Yousaf
Some people claim that the Mangla Corps Commander spoke openly about the situation in the country during a Corps Commanders' meeting. If the contents of such meetings are leaked, it will be considered a violation of the army's discipline, says @Kamran_Yousaf
If the country's economy does not improve, it will create immense difficulties for the govt & its backers. In the past, whichever govt came into power enjoyed some support amongst the public, but this govt does not have that, says @Kamran_Yousaf Watch: youtube.com/live/ppsiQVTWh…
In 2017, TLP staged a protest at Faizabad on the confluence of Islamabad & Rawalpindi. To determine the reasons for this protest, the Supreme Court had directed the govt to form a commission. A few days ago, it submitted its report. Watch: youtu.be/8QTTSZeukE8
The likelihood of the full spectrum of $25 billion of Saudi money being invested in Pakistan is, thus, relatively low. But a small fraction of this money may, in fact, materialise over the coming weeks and months. By @mosharrafzaidi Read more👇 thefridaytimes.com/18-Apr-2024/un…

Dr. Ayesha Jalal's work extends an invitation to Pakistanis to reclaim agency over their historical narrative, to ask questions and to commit to seeking the truth. Only then can one understand the bundle of contradictions and nuances that make up Pakistan's existence.

In my opinion, Ali Amin Gandapur emerges as an exemplary candidate for the chief minister's office. His unwavering loyalty to the party since his inception, coupled with his affable demeanour and accessibility to party workers, earns him widespread admiration within party circles
