ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Friday summoned a senior India diplomat to lodge a protest over the violations along the Line of Control.
“Director General South Asia Dr Mohammed Faisal summoned Indian Deputy High Commissioner J P Singh and “condemned the unprovoked ceasefire violations by the Indian occupation forces on December 7 by the Indian forces in Chirikot Sector, Chaffar Village while a funeral prayer was being offered, resulting in the deaths of two civilians (Shaukat and Iqbal resident of Chaffar village), and injuries to four others,” said a foreign ministry statement. IMO, there is a direct correlation between the "summoning" and the "punishment" that is meted out to the Pakis for LOC violations
The director general urgedIndia to respect the 2003 ceasefire arrangement, investigate this and other incidents of ceasefire violations , instruct the Indian forces to respect the ceasefire, in letter and spirit and maintain peace on the LoC and the Working Boundary.He said the Indian side should permit UN observers to play their mandated role as per the Security Council resolutions.

The world watched patiently for 22 days to ultimately see the government of Pakistan surrender to what was literally a handful of mullahs from the Barelvi sect, an ideological group that in the public imagination is not linked with violence. But is that not something called "taqiyah" in Islam !.
The Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan led by mullah Khadim Hussain Rizvi initially bayed for the blood of federal law minister Zahid Hamid, and later, the government itself. Their sin? An unproven accusation of tampering with the spirit of the 2nd amendment to the Pakistani constitution that in 1974 had declared Ahmediyyas as non-Muslim and, in the process, linked Pakistani citizenship with the principle of accepting Prophet Muhammad as the last messenger of God. Mullahs' message : Do not "mess with Malsi"
.Notwithstanding the socio-cultural and religious issues thrown up by this issue, the most significant aspect of the drama was the role the army chief played as mediator – negotiating a deal between the protestors and the elected government that was nothing but an embarrassment for the latter. There is nothing new in this. The Army has always been the "final arbiter" as far as Pakistan is concerned !
The policemen who had earlier been asked to clear the protest of a couple of hundred people on the orders of the Islamabad high court were kicked, beaten, tear-gassed and even tortured, while the army and the army-dominated paramilitary force, the Rangers, stood on the sidelines as silent spectators. The Rangers, who come under the interior ministry, refused to intervene. Army chief Qamar Bajwa was of the view that “the army does not want to fight its own people”. If many people were surprised by that statement, the real shock was the sight of a Rangers major general distributing Rs 1,000 notes to protesters. The "lame excuse" given was that the protesters who came from "far", did not have any money to "go back home", hence the "reimbursement". Other media reports "suggested" that Khadim Rizvi was paid Rs 21 crore (!) "under the table" to call off the protest .
Worse still, the army-brokered agreement stipulated that the government pay for millions of rupees worth of damage done to public property by the miscreants, release the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) activists from jail, set up a committee of mullahs to adjudicate on whether certain members of the Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) had blasphemed and provide greater flexibility in the use of loudspeakers in mosques – something the government had restricted as part of a 2015 law to curb hate speech. The state of affairs was best summed up by the senior journalist Zahid Hussain when he tweeted: “Who says constitution and parliament are supreme in this country? No more. It is back to Mullah-military alliance. God save this country”. The revival of the Mullah -Military alliance has to be understood in the context of Deep State plan to "mainstream" the Islamic parties for the next general election of 2018 !
‘Mullah-military alliance’ is of course short-hand for describing the changes unfolding in Pakistan that have sapped its already weakened democracy and rickety institutional infrastructure. What we are witnessing is the metamorphosis of the country’s socio-polity from a post-colonial form to a more organic religious one. Pakistan was always an "Islamic Republic" !
The overall impression created internationally is that a weak and embattled political government backed down in the face of Islamists, who could only be handled by the powerful military. However, the manner in which events unfolded is symptomatic of how tactical moves ultimately result in strategic transformation. Thanks to the antics of the fauj, the civilian govt has been made to look "spineless"
The manner in which Khadim Rizvi – an otherwise uneducated cleric from Attock who worked at a small mosque in Lahore till 2011 – could analyse and interpret a very small part of the electoral reform bill as a contravention of the 2nd amendment of the constitution is itself intriguing. The larger bill had been negotiated over a period of more than a year by all parties in parliament, which, in the process had agreed to delete articles 7B and 7C that were initially introduced by General Pervez Musharraf in 2002.
The forward push provided to the TLP in the short-term may not count for much except for the slap on the face of the civilian government and parliament that it has produced; however, its implications for the state in the long-term are immense. ( no kidding !)
The TLP’s victory does not in any way mean that it will sweep the 2018 elections, nor will the Lashkar-e-Tayyaba/Jamaat-ed-Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed, who just announced his intent to use the platform of the Milli Muslim League (MML) for the purpose. These parties combined may only be able to disturb the vote banks of the PML(N), and to some extent, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). In fact, the religious political parties aim to eat into the votes of all national parties and thereby ensure a weak coalition government. A strong government representing a larger majority, especially in Punjab, risks changing the contours of Pakistan’s politics – from a bureaucratic polity to a political polity. So, the religious parties are going to "act as policeman " to ensure that the weak coalition govt does not mess with Malsi
The handful of liberals in the country – who are being attacked by Imran Khan as ‘scum of the earth’ – are terrified at the thought of the Khadim Rizvi brigade gaining greater space in the coming days. Such calculations are based on extrapolation: the TLP won approximately 11,000 votes in the September NA-120 by-election and this has been been taken mean that the party has millions of supporters throughout the country. The assessment is based on an understanding that most Muslims in the country are Barelvi and would vote for the TLP. The reality is somewhat different.
So, when he lost his "livelihood" , he "branched out into Paki politics", a a career change , that has worked wonders for him - so farThe Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan and Khadim Rizvi do indeed represent a major milestone in Pakistan’s Islamisation. However, a shift in the electoral scene is the least of all the changes on the horizon. Before 2011, Rizvi was nothing but a petty cleric and an employee of the Auqaf department of the Punjab government at a small mosque in Lahore. He became visible that year after launching an unorganised protest in defence of Mumtaz Qadri, who killed governor Salman Taseer in January 2011. Rizvi eventually lost his job due to the continued use of a loudspeaker in his mosque, something that was forbidden by the government.
The TLP was born subsequently – after Mumtaz Qadri’s hanging in 2016 – as a joint venture between Rizvi and another cleric named Ashraf Jalali, who is considered an even more radical Barelvi than his partner. Between the two mullahs, they managed to excite a section of the urban Barelvi youth, who until then, were depressed by the thought of Deobandis forcibly appropriating space from them. Maulana Fazl, a Deobandi cleric should watch out for this "new upstart" in the " Malsi game" !
The link between the state and the Deobandi religious and militant groups dates back to the early 1980s. The Barelvis had missed the earlier jihad bus with only one small Barelvi group, which has its origins in Jhang, south Punjab, fighting in Kashmir. The militant capacity of the Deobandi and Ahl-e-Hadith groups made them relevant in the local socio-political space, forcing even some of the big Sufi shrines to either partner with Deobandis or turn a blind eye while Deobandi militants delivered them material gains in return for gaining control over Barelvi mosques. According to journalist Aoun Abbas Sahi, it is this space that the TLP seems to have filled by demonstrating its capacity to be as capable as any other group of taking the battle to the streets and challenging the state. Will the Saudis look helpless as their Wahabi base in Pakiland is being usurped by this new genre, which they had not anticipated, if, they are still in the "Jihad business"
Nonetheless, the TLP has failed to emerge as a unified force. There is already a breach within the group between Khadim Rizvi and Ashraf Jalali over the division of labour and resources. This means that electorally, the TLP could hurt the PML(N) through its propaganda that Sharif and his party were involved in blasphemy, which could scare voters away from the party. But the bulk of the Barelvi vote will continue to go to local bigwigs, ( like Jilani and Qureishi of South Pakjab!) many of whom are also pirs of Sufi shrines around Punjab.
The greatest impact of Barelvi radicalism, however, is long-term, in the form of how it will further cripple Sufi Islam – which in Pakistan’s case is popularly but wrongly equated with the Barelvi sect. ( What about the "great umbrella of Ummahism " whatever happened to that concept !)
While Sufi Islam revolves around the esoteric, the Barelvi sect has its basis in the reformist movement started by Ahmed Raza Barelvi in 18th century India, which also aimed at rooting out inappropriate cultural traditions from Indian Islam. The Barelvis differed from the Deobandis in insisting upon the centrality of sufis and walis (pious men) in religious discourse. The gradual lack of ideological capacity compounded with growing corruption of the sufi institution not only weakened the shrines but resulted in an ideological merger of the Sufi with the Barelvi. Post-Khadim Rizvi, the space will shrink even further with the pirs forced to conform to Rizvi’s ideological agenda for fear of losing their constituency.
The fact that Shah Mehmood Qureshi of the PTI – the former foreign minister who represents one of the largest Sufi shrines in Multan – joined a TLP rally in his city denotes that surrender. Other pirs, such as of the Golra shrine in Islamabad, are likely to switch from using Deobandi militants to Barelvi radical-street power for sorting out land appropriation issues. In the process, the pir would have to stay within the perimeter set by the acidic TLP’s Barelvi ideology that is neither sympathetic to the Ahmediyya nor the Shias. In fact, un-noticed by many, the Barelvi madrassas are increasingly uncomfortable with Shias and present the 12th Rabiul-awwal (the Prophet’s birthday) as their main marker. The Shias revere Ali more than PBUH ! [/quote]The Barelvi rhetoric constructed around the centrality of the Prophet has even narrowed the space for Saeed, who has to look at this principle as a primary rather than a secondary factor. Although Saeed criticised any move to make any changes to the ‘khatme nabuyat’ – finality of prophethood – law, it was perhaps more out of a sense of keeping Pakistan on a religious track and joining the larger anti-PML(N) chorus. Ideologically, the khatme nabuyat slogan is the mainstay of the Barelvis. From there, the principle branches out in all other directions which is contrary to the beliefs of the Ahl-e-Hadith, which is what the LeT/JuD are. Since 1984, Saeed and his group have made considerable gains that they would not want to surrender to any Barelvi cleric.

ISLAMABAD: Amid a policy decision on Friday to allow rupee depreciation, Pakistan and an International Monetary Fund (IMF) delegation concluded the first round of discussions on the country’s economy.

A senior official told Dawn that the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) would now let the currency exchange rate to adjust to market conditions after many months, rather years, of resisting expectations
Leaving aside the rest, this is what is what has been commented upon by one informed observer :This calculated move allowed the currency rate to touch Rs110 to a dollar on Friday before settling down at around Rs107 and did not go beyond official estimates. The two weekend holidays would give a breathing space instead of over-steaming the exchange rate.

Nationalist parties in Sindh on Saturday held a protest demonstration in Sukkur against what they called "settlement of foreigners in the province".
The demonstration was staged by Sindh Action Committee — constituted by the Jeay Sindh Muttahida Mahaz (JSMM)
A large number of workers of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz (JSQM), Sindh Taraqipasand Party (STP), and other nationalist parties participated in the protest.
JSMM Chairman Riaz Chandio alleged that the settlement of "foreigners" in Sindh was ruining the province. He raised objection over the issuance of identity cards to "Bengalis, Burmese and other foreign settlers".
Key takeaways:The protesters alleged that the government was only focused towards developing the Punjab province.
Taking steps to prevent the use of internet and social media for terrorist activities, the Ministry of Information Technology has blocked 937 URLS and 10 websites run by banned organisations, it was learnt on Saturday.

Their network, both interconnected and public, is a mix of Sunni and Shia sectarian or terror outfits, global terror organisations operating in Pakistan, and separatists in Balochistan and Sindh.
In an effort to counter hate speech and extremist material, the government registered 1,351 cases, arrested 2,525 people and sealed 70 shops.

KARACHI – Organisers of an international conference were left in mental distress after authorities of Institute of Business Administration (IBA) barred them from holding the event just a few hours before the scheduled time, citing security reasons. Better to be "mentally stressed out ", IMO than deal with the aftermath of terrorist attack, in one of the most "dangerous cities on earth"
“DigiConnect Conference” was scheduled for Saturday (today) in Karachi and supposed to take place at the IBA. In a Facebook post, the organizer of the international conference informed the participants as saying: “It is with the deepest regret that we have to inform you that our digi connect influencer marketing conference which was to be held on Saturday, December 09, 2017 has been cancelled”.
They said that the IBA administration informed them about the security reasons at 6:30pm on Friday just 12 hours before its start. They added that the preparations for the event had entered in final stages. IMO, Pakistan is not ready for "hosting" any international meet, unless it is held in the ISI HQ in Aabpara !
The notice was so late that “We had no option left but to individually inform our speakers, panelists and nearly 300 paid registered participants that we were canceling the event owing to circumstances beyond our control,” the post added. After announcing the cancellation, the organisers said: “We apologise for any inconvenience caused, however, everyone’s well-being and safety is our chief priority”.
The Balochistan government has asked Islamabad not to issue permits for hunting in the province saying it is beyond the mandate of the federal government after the passage of the 18th Constitutional amendment.The Balochistan cabinet on Friday evening directed all 34 deputy commissioners of the province not to allow anyone to hunt in their respective districts. With Ganja- who is a "big fan of the Gulf Arabis" - gone, it may be possible to implement this drastic decision , but the repercussions may come in the shape of tightening of visa restrictions for Paki labour and /or stoppage of the aid spigot
This decision has come a few days after security forces detained four Qatari nationals near the Pak-Afghan border in Noshki district on charges of illegal hunting. Five locals were also charged with collaborating with the foreigners for illegal hunting in the area. To be fair to the Pakis, this location is a "pretty sensitive area" where Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan meet . The last headache they want is an international incident ( Sheikhs are kidnapped by Balochi rebels and are threatened to be killed unless "demands" are met
