A quite literal metaphor for Pakistan

Yawn - Wall of Muneeb Butt and Aiman Khan’s house in Karachi collapses after sewage line explosion

A wall in Muneeb Butt and Aiman Khan’s home in Karachi’s Federal B Area Block 10 collapsed after a sewage line exploded on Sunday. A domestic worker and two children sustained minor injuries in the incident.

Gulberg police SHO Ashraf Jogi told Images that they received information on the Madadgar-15 Helpline about an “explosion” inside the house of the actor at around 1:45 pm on Sunday. The police rushed to the spot and searched the house.

It transpired that because of accumulation of gases, a gutter line exploded, resulting in the wall’s collapse. The SHO said that one woman and two children suffered minor injuries. No case has been registered.

Putting aside Dating 101, this is a case of "monkey see, monkey do". The idiot who set the question has a thin layer of western education or reading of their literature, very little understanding of that, and very little understanding of the society he is embedded in - total disconnect from reality. A Lootyens-type but with infinitely less intelligence.

sanjaykumar ji,

panjabiyat, kashmiriyat, potatoyat, tomatoyat, bhendiyat etc are just some self serving figments of a fevered woke imagination, a convenient social invention of the leftist cabals, a sly means of sticking it to the right wingers, a reusable foundation of quick narrative building and a repertoire of toolkits that can be trotted out, retuned and repurposed at a drop of the proverbial hat, and it is akin to beating a dead horse. It can and is often invoked at will, as and when they think that the majority can be skewered for crimes deemed to have been committed by them, a convenient hook on which to hang the many splendored cloak of abrahamic hatred to easily rouse cross border and offshore passions.

Its an abrahamic meme to justify the social and cultural mayhem of the minorities, especially when they simply do not have a leg to stand on or even justify their entitled stance but still demand unreasonable concessions from the majority. The Ram Mandir issue is a case in point.

vir sanghvi is a dishonest and woke "food" critic, with intellectual pretensions of allegedly deep insights into geopolitics, international relations with a deeply biased paki pasand stance and an acknowledged congi doormat.

he is a distinguished graduate (summa cum laude) of the radia school of media, specializing in presstitute based, dividend yielding, skewed reportage that first and foremost benefits him before it benefits anyone else. He is a card carrying member of the lootyens media mafia, at the beck and call of the eyetalian ecosystem and their house negro.

He is an accomplished and self confessed shaukeen of sharab, kabaab, shabab, and karaab, and was also reportedly compromised by the LTTE in a honey trap per reports in the media

In short, he is an all round bad egg, whose deluded outpourings in the media need to be taken with a big bagful of salt.

He is an old hand at corrosive narrative building and an accomplished purveyor of creative disinformation, perfected long before the advent of the venomous social media of today. A veritable trencherman of eclectic appetites.

and here he is: caught and bowled, as well as, bought and sold and apparently the ltte led him by his errr, nose

Journalist in a Honey Trap

Seshan soon appeared in Sunday under editor Vir Sanghvi's signature, as the unnamed source to raise the same doubt, but Sanghvi made an addition: that a minister in Chandra Shekhar's government had masterminded the assassination. Knowing Sanghvi as a flippant and supercilious journalist, I would have normally disregarded what he wrote.

But there were reports that he had once gone to London on an LTTE sponsored trip, and was a victim of a honey trap. That was the LTTE hold on him. What is curious is that Sanghvi was the first journalist to raise a doubt in a signed article about whether the LTTE was at all a culprit in the assassination. This doubt was raised after the CBI/SIT had already filed the charge sheet in the Trial Court naming Prabhakaran and 25 others of the LTTE as the accused.

It is interesting that the Supreme Court has held that the assassination decision was made by Prabhakaran after being provoked by two interviews of Rajiv Gandhi (RG) taken by Vir Sanghvi, and published in the same Sunday (para 379, page 385).
The nation needs to know what is so authentic to Prabhakaran about Sanghvi that he should have been so provoked by his recounting that RG would despatch the IPKF again, and that RG thought that it was justified in the first place. A perusal of the various issues of Sunday, and the columns of some of its leading editorial lights, however clearly shows that the magazine had been for quite some time, since 1991, espousing the LTTE line in India.

Sanghvi was summoned before the Jain Commission on my affidavit, and cross-examined on his attempts to exonerate the LTTE, and on the sources of his pro-LTTE stories, but he cut a sorry figure because the only source of his wild allegations was a dead politician! Now who can verify that? How could any independent journalist declare the LTTE as innocent when a trial was well under way, unless it was to help the LTTE by disinformation?

Why Pakistanis Need India's Help to Survive Economic Collapse
By Hasan Suroor, TIMES OF INDIA.COM
Feb 20, 2023, 13:37 IST

India has every reason to be miffed with Pakistan for repeated betrayals by successive governments. However, New Delhi should also remember that its quarrel is with the ruling elite, not the suffering masses

Much of the Indian reaction to Pakistan's deepening economic crisis — both at the official and civil society level — has been largely marked by indifference, even barely concealed glee, with commentators lining up to declare Islamabad as the architect of its own misfortunes and lecturing it to set its house in order.

Any suggestion that India might offer a helping hand has been greeted with ridicule. So, it was rather brave of AS Dulat, one of India's best-known former spymasters, to stick his neck out while speaking at the Times Lit Festival last week. (Daulat & his types are last hope of porkies to a window of hope of discussions with current govt. of India)

In response to a question on the issue during a discussion on his new book, A Life in the Shadows , he noted that Pakistan was "in an awful mess in every way" — and then went on to suggest that "Modiji might bail out Pakistan. Maybe there will be talks with Pakistan before the year is up?" This left many wondering if he was joking or did he really know something we don't. Was there something going on behind the scenes to save Pakistan from total collapse?

To many, however, the very idea of India bailing out Pakistan which it regards as an 'epicentre of terrorism' and with whom it has doggedly ruled out any talks unless it renounces terror sounds like a bad joke. If anything, India's Pakistan policy has only hardened of late. Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's rather desperate call for talks recently was met with disdain in New Delhi.

And Islamabad was told to first create "a conducive atmosphere which does not have terror, hostility or violence", as ministry of external affairs (MEA) spokesperson Arindam Bagchi put it. Following which Pakistan too toughened its position saying that talks “can only take place after India had reversed its illegal action of August 5, 2019”, — a reference to the scrapping of Jammu and Kashmir’s special status.

In such a climate, Dulat's loud-thinking has little chance of flying. But that doesn't take away from the principled merit of offering help to a neighbour in extreme distress prioritising compassion over political differences. Indeed, it can prove to be the Modi government's most enduring legacy — likely to be long remembered by millions of ordinary Pakistanis reeling from the consequences of their rulers' criminal neglect of the country's national interest, and their consitutional duty of care towards the people who voted them to power.
India needs to show a big heart

It will also put in sharper focus India's much-acclaimed soft power and its long tradition of running humanitarian missions across the world, the earthquake-hit Turkiye being the latest case in point. Last week, a senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader wrote a long op-ed on how "India’s soft power is blooming under Modi" with the Prime Minister showing "a willingness to see beyond conflicts and do the right thing in the larger interest".

"This was visible during Covid-19, the Lankan economic crisis and now again in earthquake-hit Turkiye. This month saw déjà vu of that magnanimous, yet strategic mindset when India was among the first nations to respond with aid to Turkiye after a devastating earthquake. (terrorist, beggars are noticing it all) It is no secret that relations between the two countries had been strained, with acerbic exchanges and sparring at global forums over Jammu and Kashmir and cross-border terrorism. Such willingness to put aside slights and personal affronts, see beyond conflicts, and do the right thing in the larger national and global interest is rare, and easier said than done," wrote Baijayant 'Jay' Panda, national vice-president of the BJP.

He went on to say how it takes "a big heart, steely determination and a deeply held belief in a higher principle, in this case, Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, Indic philosophy’s old vision of the world as one family.". Border Movie scene, begging by injured porki TFTA soillder , who was raised with mindwash that 1 TFTA mard e momin soilder == 10 SDRE baniya soilder, tumko tumhare rab ka wasta, mujhey mat marnaa....

Clearly, Pakistan doesn't qualify to be a member of this Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam presumably as a punishment for what Panda calls its "hostility" to India. Yet, in a preceding paragraph, he tells us that humanitarian spirit is all about "a willingness to see beyond conflicts and do the right thing in the larger interest". It would seem that in the BJP and the Modi government's view helping Pakistan serves no "larger interest".

True, India has every reason to be miffed with Pakistan for the repeated betrayal of trust by successive ruling establishments in Islamabad — from the Bhuttos to the Sharifs, and Pervez Musharraf. But here's the thing that is often overlooked: our quarrel is with Pakistan's political and military rulers — not with its people who who are the real victims of the existential crisis caused by their corrupt and cynically self-serving ruling elite. It's they who need our help

— not the Sharifs, the Khans, the Bhuttos and their army mates.

Moreover, as a bigger and richer neighbour with a booming economy India can afford to be magnanimous towards its down-and-out neighbour. I dare say, it has a moral obligation to help the vulnerable people of Pakistan, notwithstanding its difficult relationship with Pakistan's bankrupt leadership. And, mind you, the people of Pakistan are not just any old neighbours. We were family once and are still bound by lingering ties of kinship and old friendships.

Moreover, for much of the past seven decades or so, it's the people-to-people contacts that have essentially sustained India-Pakistan relations whether through cricket, travel or exchange of writers and artistes; though lately they have all been dispensed with one by one. This is a great opportunity to go back to the people: the people of India reaching out to friends across the border in a time of crisis.

But the biggest argument in favour of averting Pakistan's economic collapse is that if it goes bust it could have serious strategic and security implications for the entire region, India not excluded.
As Farzana Shaikh, associate fellow of Asia-Pacific Programme at Chatham House, London and a strong critic of Pakistan's ruling elite warned: "Pakistan is not a small country — it is 220mn people, it's nuclear armed and if this economic crisis fuels instability, the spillover and effect on neighbouring countries could be quite serious. There is really no underestimating that.". A view echoed by many Indian analysts.

"If the Pakistani economy tanks completely, there is a possibility that India will have to face a refugee influx. And if Pakistan turns into a failed state, there is a possibility that terror networks will increase their influence within Pakistan, and that has the potential to directly harm India's interests," Sourish Ghosh, an independent researcher, told Moneycontrol .com.
There's an Urdu saying, "Hum to doobenge sanam, tum ko bhi le jayenge" (When we sink, my dear, we will drag you down with us too).

Let the message go out to Islamabad, that Delhi remains a city of dilwalon ki whose heart is still in the right place, irrespective of what they plot in Islamabad.

Gunmen kill 2 policemen in attack in southwestern Pakistan

QUETTA, Pakistan — Gunmen attacked a police post in Pakistan’s insurgency-hit southwestern Baluchistan province on Tuesday, triggering a shootout that killed two officers, police said, the latest sign of increasing violence in the country. Barkat Baloch, a government administrator, said a search was underway for the assailants who fled after the attack in Mastung, a district in Baluchistan.

No one immediately claimed responsibility for the shooting, but previous such attacks have been blamed on Baluch separatists and Islamic militants who have a strong presence in the province and elsewhere in Pakistan.

Kaptaan Imran to the rescue of Pkhistaan

Hundreds aim for jail as ‘court arrest’ begins

ISLAMABAD: Supporters of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) will take to the streets in Punjab’s provincial capital today (Wednesday) to kick off the ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ wherein “more than 200 supporters” would court arrest.

In preparation for the drive, the social media wing of the PTI remained busy throughout the day, with party workers and leaders sharing messages motivating supporters to become part of the “phase-wise” court arrest drive.

“Fill up prisons and shatter the idols of fear,” said PTI chief Imran Khan in a video message on Twitter. In an apparent bid to muster up support for the movement, the former ruling party also took out rallies in multiple cities, including Faisalabad, Kasur, and Sheikhupura, on different pretexts.

In Lahore, PTI central provincial president Yasmin Rashid chaired a meeting to take stock of the situation in light of the court arrest drive to be launched today. The top brass of the PTI, however, will not give up their freedom on day 1.

Section 144 imposed in Lahore; Sana says govt will arrest miscreants, not ‘women and poor workers’

Some mid-tier leaders, including former Punjab governor Umer Sarfraz Cheema, Senator Waleed Iqbal, former provincial minister Murad Raas along with more than 200 workers would court arrest in the first phase of the movement.

Pak govt officers face 50% pay cut for Turkey fund

Without any formal orders by the Pakistan government or the provincial governments, officers of the Balochistan government have found a fifty per cent cut in their salaries this month on the grounds that they are required to contribute to the Turkey relief aid, as per the report by the Asian Lite.

This comes at a time when the Pakistan government is witnessing a severe economic crisis amid allegations of corruption and coercion of being rampant in the country.

The Asia Lite reported that Grade 19 to 21 officers in Balochistan have protested the unilateral salary cut, saying that they were already facing problems feeding their families, faced by a 33 per cent rise in prices of essential commodities. These salaries were their only source of income.

They could not be deprived of their legitimate earnings without any consultation.

“That message was conveyed to the government delegation, which did not show any relaxation in its demand. The PCB is wary that once such a huge amount is paid for PSL matches, it would set a precedent for the future and the government would ask for it in every international series”.

The minister also claimed that a whopping Rs 1.2 billion (USD $ 4.6 m) were collected in salaami at the wedding of the first daughter of the same bureaucrat, who he said is a grade 21 public servant.

Cross border action into Afghanistan. This is going to be fun.
Pakistan’s ‘plan B’ to tackle TTP

What transpired during the visit, as per official sources, was that Pakistan took a far clearer stance. The Afghan Taliban were confronted with hard evidence about the presence of TTP and shared the precise location of its leadership. The Afghan authorities gave a briefing to the Pakistani side. They listed actions they took against certain groups of the TTP and their future strategy. One of the plans given by the Afghan Taliban to control the TTP includes disarming the terrorist outfit and their relocation from the border areas. However, the Afghan Taliban wanted Pakistan to bear the cost of that plan.

It is believed that the Afghan authorities made a similar offer to China, which is also concerned over the presence of East Turkestan Islamic Movement (ETIM). But the problem of TTP is far more challenging and complex given the fact that the number of ETIM fighters is around 300 while anti-Pakistani terrorists range between 8,000 and 12,000. The number goes up to 30,000 if TTP family members are included.

The Pakistani delegation, on return from Kabul, was hopeful that the Afghan Taliban would do something about the TTP. But they are not complacent either. While there is a push to seek the resolution of the TTP issues through appropriate channels, Pakistan is also working on a contingency plan. The sense is that Pakistan is preparing for the worst. In case the Afghan Taliban fail to address our concerns, there is a possibility of cross-border strikes targeting the TTP sanctuaries. Pakistan did carry out such strikes once in April last to put pressure on the Afghan Taliban, though it never publicly owned those raids. This may be the policy going forward — targeting the TTP hideouts across the border without publicly acknowledging it.
