Mint - Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif’s ‘will surpass India or my name isn’t Shehbaz’

Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has declared his ambition to make Pakistan a greater nation than India, vowing relentless efforts to achieve this goal. “If we don’t leave India behind, then my name is not Shehbaz Sharif.

We will work day and night. A day will come when we will make Pakistan a great nation and move ahead of India,” Sharif declared while addressing a large crowd in Dera Ghazi Khan.

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif has said that people can change his name if he does not take Pakistan ahead of its arch-rival India after coming into power.

Addressing a rally in Sargodha late on Saturday, the PML-N chief said: "If I do not end load shedding crisis in six months, you can change my name," adding "they (Indians) will come to Wagah Border and call Pakistani's their master."

So their leaders can utter such statements as there is hardly any social media or even MSM to make a larger than local area impact. For eg the awaam of KPK doesn't know or remember what he told the awaam of Punjab...

I remember many years ago someone on a panel discussion on TV had commented that just like PST is 30 minutes behind IST, Pakistan itself is 30 years behind India!
This was sometime in the late 90s. I'd say that Pakistan is still stuck in the same world, now 55 years behind India!

I concur

I have seen quite a few pakistani youtube blogs in urdu/punjabi in the past few months. And the scene seems to be the same (or worse) as the videos i had seen 10-15 years ago.

The extreme poverty and infra is reminiscent of India in the 70s. But the divide between the elites and the awaam is more well-defined and much wider and starker than in the India of the 70s-80s.

The last 2 years alone seem to have set the people back by 10-15 years!

Massive gold reserve worth 600 billion Pakistani rupees: Can it change the country’s fortune?

This natural process, known as placer gold deposits, has led to the accumulation of large quantities of gold in certain areas of the river. As per reports by various media outlets, including Nav Bharat Times and Daily Parliament Times, the Attock district, in particular, is said to have gold spread over a 32-kilometer stretch, with estimates suggesting a total of 32.6 metric tons of gold worth approximately 600 billion Pakistani rupees.

With news of the discovery spreading, local residents have begun mining the riverbed, particularly during the winter months when water levels are lower, making gold particles more accessible. However, this mining is largely illegal, with heavy machinery often used for extraction. According to Nav Bharat Times, the Pakistani government has enforced Section 144, a legal measure designed to prevent illegal mining.

Why is the gold only in Pakistan rivers? This news is widely reported in mainstream media. Another Times of India report quoted a Pakistani geologist on this issue that further enquiry is going on.

We should build a huge dam upstream and reduce the flow of the water in the river to a trickle

Gwadar International Airport News | Pakistan | Pakistan's New Airport |
The Gwadar International Airport in Pakistan has been built at a cost of a whopping $240 million. It's state of the art, it spans 430 acres, has a 4 lakh capacity and it was finished in October 2024.

However, even after over a month of its virtual inauguration in January 2025 .. the airport remains deserted.

There are no planes, no people and the airport is a stark contrast to the impoverished province around it. As per AP, multiple roads around the area are closed several days in a week .. and intelligence officers monitor journalists visiting Gwadar.

So what's really happening at that airport that's such a big mystery?

Eleven Arrested for Jihadist Terrorism in Catalonia: They Had Already Targeted Objectives
Radical Islamism is consolidating as the main threat to security across Europe. Meanwhile, Catalonia is the cradle of this phenomenon in southern Europe.

https://e-noticies.cat/en/politics/elev ... -catalonia

The Mossos d'Esquadra, in collaboration with the National Police and the Italian police, have managed to dismantle a terrorist organization linked to jihadist doctrine. This operation resulted in the arrest of eleven individuals, with most of the arrests made in Barcelona and its metropolitan area. One of the detainees was arrested in Italy.
...
Additionally, in their online publications, the network's members glorified terrorist attacks committed against people accused of blasphemy in Europe and Pakistan.
...
Barcelona and Catalonia have become an epicenter of jihadism in southern Europe. The presence of extremist groups throughout Catalan territory has increased in recent years.

This is more explicit:
WATCH: SPAIN NARROWLY AVOIDS ‘CHARLIE HEBDO 2.0’ AS ISLAMIST TERROR CELL IN BARCELONA IS CAUGHT PLOTTING ATTACK AFTER ‘HUNTING VICTIMS ON TIKTOK’
https://www.theolivepress.es/spain-news ... on-tiktok/

The Policia Nacional said 10 people cuffed in Barcelona had ‘encouraged the commission of violent actions through encrypted channels.’

It said the arrests were part of the ‘third phase of an investigation in which 30 more people from a radical Pakistani organisation have been arrested.’ One person was also arrested in Piacenza, northern Italy.

In a statement yesterday, police said the suspects are accused of glorifying and financing terrorism, indoctrination and of preparing an attack.

Disturbingly, sources close to the investigation told Spanish media that the terror cell is completely independent, meaning it was created and headquartered in Spain, without the help or encouragement of international groups like ISIS or Al-Qaeda.

Added: from elsewhere one finds out tha terrorist cell is associated with the Tehreek-e-Labbaik, Pakistan.

'Scholar' who helped ISI abduct Kulbhushan Jadhav from Iran shot dead in Balochistan

Mufti Shah Mir, accused of helping Pakistan's ISI in kidnapping Indian businessman and former Indian Navy officer Kulbhushan Jadhav from Iran, was shot dead on Friday night by unidentified gunmen in Turbat, Balochistan.
Mir, known to be involved in human trafficking, was leaving the local mosque after Taraweeh (night) prayers when bikers ambushed him and shot him multiple times at point-blank range. According to a report in Dawn, Mir was immediately shifted to hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
Mir, a human and arms trafficker, operated under the cover of a mufti (scholar) and was a member of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, an Islamic fundamentalist political party.
Mir had survived two attempts on his life last year

Sources said he was an important conduit linked with ISI-led death squads and played a significant role in the abduction and extrajudicial killing of numerous Baloch youths. He was also instrumental in spreading religious extremism in Balochistan.
In March 2016, Jadhav was abducted by a group led by Mullah Omar Irani of Jaish al-Adl from the Iran-Pakistan border and handed over to the Pakistan army through several intermediaries, including Mir. Irani was also killed, along with his two sons, in the same area (Turbat) in Nov 2020, allegedly by ISI.

Mir is also suspected to have been gunned down by ISI operatives in what is believed to be an internal conflict that has been brewing for some time. Last week, two others of JUI-F -- Wadera Ghulam Sarwar and Molvi Amanullah -- were shot dead by bike-borne assailants in what the local police described as targeted killings. The security guard of one also sustained bullet injuries. Mir had also survived two attempts on his life last year and had recently restricted his movements. "He was providing intelligence about Baloch fighters to the Pak army. In 2023, a teacher named Abdul Rauf was murdered over alleged blasphemy in Turbat. The killing was carried out on the instructions of Mir," a source informed.

Jadhav, who was running a business in Chabahar (Iran) after a premature retirement from the Navy, was abducted and incarcerated on false charges in Pakistan. He was intercepted in the Chaman area of Balochistan on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border on March 3, 2016. In April 2017, a Pakistani military court sentenced Jadhav to death, charging him with involvement in espionage and sabotage activities. India condemned the verdict as a premeditated murder. The International Court of Justice stayed the execution while asking the Pakistan government to review the conviction process besides grant consular access to India.

Interesting to note that the Lumber One fauj and intelligence agency personnel on the train were overpowered by the BLA.

Wouldn't army personnel be carrying weapons? Going by the reported numbers, there were quite a few army personnel on the train who were taken hostage. Why did they meekly surrender and not put up a fight? Maybe they did not have the ammo due to financial situation of Bikaristan.

In my opinion, that 200 plus fauj is on the train apparently gave up without a fight points to the use of overwhelming (possibly ruthless) force by the BLA, a lack of fighting spirit by Pakfauj or both

That said, this train (Quetta to Islamabad and Peshawar via Sindh) is commonly used by Baki soldiers posted in Balochistan, who are going on leave or coming back from leave.

While soldiers typically don’t carry weapons at these times, the incidents reflects a serious security flaw (was there force protection on the train and what was it doing?) as well as BLA’s meticulous planning.

Standard practise is adult males who are killed and not security forces are automatically militant (particularly if they are Baluchi/Pashtun).
That's why there have been suicide bombings that have killed more militants than others.

Apparently Baloch don't practice Islam, they are leftist. They accept mandirs on their land and accept their long history on the land of Balochistan. They are very tribe oriented and loyal to their own, their land is sacred. There is now a Baloch-Sindhi-Pashtun Unite happening in Puke land. The PakJabi dudes that are in charge in Puki Punjab actually got islamized due to Baloch, Pashtun invading them.
