There is a fear that the #cancelcieexams2021 trend has carved an impression in the officials heads that it's a slight matter of some kids who do not want to appear in exam. This is a dangerous and misleading assumption.
Try to understand that these kids genuinely are at risk.
Last year when the exams were cancelled, this age demographic wasn’t even applicable. Now they are. We’re hitting record cases day by day, and no matter how good SOPS are, they are not 100% prevention. They are not a cure.

Also, while the matter is quite logical, it's a fact, that the court has decided to steer clear of this issue. Yet, the fact that thousands of kids are still protesting and feeling their academic year can be lost is something to be noticed.
The Oct exam year, as rightly pointed out by @MJibranNasir on @AajKamranKhan show clearly deflects the situation because ultimately it entails the kids will lose an entire year of education.After a hard year of pandemic, seems like more time will be wasted. #cancelcieexams2021
Therefore the casual answer ," Oh, the kids can appear in October with the same fees", doesn't apply because almost all the kids speaking on the issue are clear that an October exam will be not helpful. "If it's such a good decision, then postpone the exam"; said one kid.
One more clarification. These are smart young people raising voice for their future. The patronizing portrayal that these are some kids who are possibly lethargic is very old fashioned parenting tool and misleading. #cancelcieexams2021

The Prime Minister of Pakistan @ImranKhanPTI has rejected all claims of former DG FIA, Bashir Memon, calling them a fringe of imagination. He said his interaction with Bashir Memon was strictly professional and only related to the cases relevant to his organisation.
PM said that Bashir Memon used to brief him on cases related to Omni Group and Asif Zardari. However, no such conversations that he is quoting ever took place.
PM said that a conversation took place about @KhawajaMAsif In front of the cabinet because as head of state he is responsible for the security and holding documents of another country while being interior minister which was the case of Khawaja Asif fell in PM's ambit of inquiry.

There has been a series of events on Pak-India front in the last few weeks it will be imp to look at these events in the backdrop of a third party mediation.Two Middle East countries have exerted pressure on Pakistan to nuetraluse antagonism rampant against Modi regime1/6
However، depite the investment of certain quarters into #BJP and #Modiregime, it's not in Pakistan's interest to succumb to the pressure exerted by quarters which have larger agendas which often remain ignorant to what suits Pak best.Let's not forget, we always stressed peace
Pakistan n India relations have always been intense and to say the least, complicated. As it is, there will always be hiccups, under the present government in India, they become next to impossible. Recent developments can be a step towards re-establishment of working relations.

1500,000 dollars paid to Mr James under the out of court settlement at the guidance of "smart" Pakistani government, also, NAB paid a sum of 250,000 dollars in settlement of the claims by IAR, in 2008. Mr James died in 2011/2. So the money was paid in vain.
The repudiatory damages were paid according to clause 4 of ARA.
Here is the clause 4 of ARA, the Asset Recovery Agreement dated 20th June, 2000. Under the ARA, in relation to assets recovered, the defendant was to receive 20 per cent of the amount available to be transferred. This is exactly what @sayedzbukhari had said on our show last week.

@TPRPod London,office of Jang, Geo, had been reading a book by Benazir Bhutto, finished the last 2 chapters after her death,it was eerie, anyway, I had placed my things on my desk and gone to make coffee,I was thinking it will be a bland day news wise because Pak will be busy with rally
@TPRPod Suddenly, I heard running footsteps, a senior reporter from Jang ran to @aamirghauri at his desk and told him that there was a blast and BB was badly injured, everyone ran to turn on the volumes of all TV screens, there was huge panick everywhere in office
@TPRPod @aamirghauri I called our desk in Karachi, they said they were not sure what happened, everyone had hoped she would be safe like last time, the reporter at the rally in Rawalpindi was totally shocked, I remember the news of her death was already being murmured at burue before it was announced

For those who thought,it mattrted little who is the President in the USA for Pakistan, I want to say think again. Many of us, cheered for @BarackObama in our college days and early careers. Why? Because he said words we wanted to hear. He made us dream. He made us feel involved.
So apparently, despite not having a vote in USA, we cheered at seminars in UK Universities,we prayed for his victory.@BarackObama spoke of an inclusiveness and positivity that was the haven for all minorities across the world.The political correctness of his "Change" resonated
However, the increased number of drone attacks and blind expectancy to "do more ", the inability to call the troops back from Afghanistan despite the eagerness to do it along with many other disappointments started to accelerate the end of the era of political correctness.

Some more points on #MotowayIncident that must be looked at in investigation. We need to clear the basics ,she was an educated n confident person who was at the wrong place at the wrong time.The misleading sleazy /twisted details like who filed the FIR etc need to be ignored. 1/8
Investigation also needs to look at the following points.Why the attackers were so confident that she was alone,her car was locked and noone was coming to help her?How come they were sure abt how much time they had. Roadside could be place for bulgary/dacoity, not always for rape
She reached the toll plaza and paid for the toll. Asked for the nearest petrol pump.Moved forward.The car stopped. She called the motorway helpline, they apologised but gave her the local number. The person on the number came on what's app and took her location. Told her to wait.
