What is the process of approval/rejection of economic/trade-related decisions?

1/ Summary is presented in ECC [Economic coordination committee] that has over 12 members. FM chairs the meeting.

2/ ECC may approve or reject the summary.
3/ If approved by ECC, summary is thn presented to the cabinet. As the cabinet is the final approval authority/forum bcoz technically cabinet is the govt.

4/ Based on the collective wisdom, the cabinet takes the decision based on political, economic, and diplomatic conditions.
5/ Once the Federal Cabinet approves the summary it's then implemented.

ECC & cabinet meet separately every week. Many summaries get approved or rejected. For example, this summary was approved by the ECC but rejected by the cabinet.

These Zara Hut Kay hosts are oblivious of this process and yet they claim to be journalists?

Probably they didn't know PM is not the final authority it's the cabinet in such a case.

Sarmad's abduction story was peddled by SAATH members, HR activists like Ammar Ali Jan, Amnesty Asia jumped in, PTM and PMLN social media started SM campaign.

Maryam, Ahsan Iqbal & journos jumped in. Asad Ali Toor blamed agencies & likened the situation worse than IoK.
If FIA opens the cases against Asad Ali Toor and all those that ran malicious campaigns against Govt and Army, what will these intellectuals and HR activists say?

There is no freedom of speech, we can't cR|tiCiz3 the "powers that be" fascist state etc etc.
Just to share how strong their campaign was:

#BringBackSarmadSultan was the top trend, Amnesty Asia from it's verified account tweeted about it (not surprising when ppl like Ammar Ali Jan r involved), articles are written in int publications such as BBC & Independent Urdu

مسنگ پرسنز کے ایشو پر ریاست بالخصوص ایجینسیوں کو ایک چیز کا ادراک کرنا چاہیے کہ یہ 80s یا 90s کا دور نہیں۔

تھوڑی دیر کے لیے یہ بات مان لی جائے کہ مسنگ پرسنز کو سہی اٹھایا جاتا ہے اس کے باوجود کسی کو اٹھانا یہ غلط امر ہے۔ غلط اس لیے نہیں کہ اس سے انسانی حقوق پامال ہوتے ہیں..
.. بلکہ غلط اس لیے ہے کیونکہ پاکستان نا تو چین کی طرح ایک سپر پاور ہے جہاں ایک پارٹی سسٹم ہے اور نا ہی بنگلہ دیش کی طرح شیخ حسینہ کی حکومت ہے جس نے ریاست کے ہر ادارے میڈیا سمیت کو اپنے قابو میں لیا ہوا ہو، اور ہیومن رائیٹس اور انٹرنیشنل میڈیا کی بھی بڑی واجبی سی تنقید ہوتی ہے۔.
..جب تک پاکستان کی ریاست مضبوط نہیں ہو جاتی جہاں وہ اپنے اندر اور باہر بیٹھ کر پروپیگنڈا کرنے والوں کو نا صرف چپ کروا سکے بلکہ ہر جگہ اندر اور باہر ریاست کے لوگ بیٹھے ہوں جو ریاست کا دفاع کر سکیں نا کہ اس کو کمزور۔

انڈیا کی مثال سامنے ہے کشمیر میں جو کچھ ہو رہا ہے وہ..

پرسوں کہہ رہے تھے کہ سرمد بالکل سہی ہے اور نجی مصروفیت کی وجہ سے اکاؤنٹ بند کیا ہے۔

کل کہا کہ سرمد کو ایجینسیوں نے اٹھا لیا ہے۔

اور آج کی کہانی ہے کہ سرمد پر قاتلانہ حملہ ہوا ہے جس میں سرمد کو کچھ نہیں ہوا لیکن بھائی زخمی ہوا ہے۔ Image
سرمد کا خاندان پیپلزپارٹی کا سپوٹر ہے۔ اور جس علاقے سے تعلق ہے وہاں ان کے زمینوں کے پیچھے کافی جھگڑے اور دشمنیاں رہیں ہیں۔ 2014 میں اس ہی دشمنی کے چکر میں اس کے بڑے بھائی کا قتل ہوا تھا اور یاد رہے اسوقت سرمد کا ٹویٹر پر نام و نشان بھی نہیں تھا۔

یہ ایک اچھا طریقہ ڈھوڈا ہوا ہے چوری کرو اگر پکڑے جاؤ تو جمہوریت اور سویلین سپرمیسی کے علمبردار بن جاو۔

اس ہی طرح کوئی بھی ٹٹ پینجیاں (جو فوج مخالف ہو) اپنی زاتی دشمنیوں کے پیچھے مارا جائے اس کو بھی ریاست پر ڈال دو بغیر کسی ثبوت کے۔

"if Balochistan was given its due share of development, BLA would’ve failed to attract locals."

This is not a correct assessment, before I explain why, let me share few facts about Balochistan & its insurgency.

Out of 33 Balochistan districts, only 3 districts r problematic.
2/
Keep in mind, Balochistan forms 44% of the total area of Pakistan with the scarce population stretched across the rugged areas. There are not more than ~ 1500 militant fighters in Balochistan.

Now compare this strength with TTP's that had thousands of ferocious fighters..
3/
..at their disposal spread across Pak but concentrated in tribal districts. If Pak Army can annihilate TTP, how hard it's for Army to do the same with BLA?

Why is that Army is unable to put an end to these few militant groups in Balochistan?

Unable to understand why Jiyalas get riled up when IK talks about Islam.

Islam was one of the central themes of Bhutto's1970 election campaign, fearing that socialism would be portrayed as a western idea, Bhutto always took care to talk about *Islamic* socialism. Image
2/
In a speech shortly after the creation of the PPP ZAB said:
"I'll give my life and blood to strengthen this country and establish Islamic socialism according to the wishes of Quaid-e-Azam."

Post 71, ZAB wanted to be seen as a Pan-Islamic leader.
3/
Gave '73 Constitution which is Islamic, then 2nd amendment.

Pakistan's first National Seerat (Life of the Prophet) was launched by Bhutto. In the inaugural speech of the conference ZAB said:
"..steadfastly pursues the cherished goal of promoting Islamic ideals and values."

The Battle of Yamama and Sword of Allah:

Musailima al-Kadhab Army was the largest and most fanatical enemy force Muslims had ever faced in the early years of Islam after the Prophet's (PBUH) death, and its commander [Musailima] was the most vicious and cunning of men.
2/
Before the main battle, there were series of events that went in favor of Musailima thus demoralizing Muslims before Khalid bin Waleed took command.

Abu Bakr (R.A) appointed Ikrimah ibn Abi Jahl as the commander of one of the corps that would advance and make contact..
3/
..with the forces of Musailima at Yamamah, clear orders were given not to get involved in a battle with the Musailima.
Abu Bakr knew better than most of his generals the power and ability of Musailima and did not wish to risk fighting him with insufficient forces.
