While global corporations setting up GCCs in India continue to express confidence in availability of skilled AI engineers, the panel argued that India’s real challenge lies elsewhere.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
Imran Khan may have his flaws foremost among them being his appeal to the Army and its subordinate Supreme Court to distort (destroy) democracy in Pakistan but this guy YLH has produced a hate filled bigoted article because people’s beliefs do not fit in with his own. Most of Pakistan does not agree with YLH or his belief system so cultural condemnation can be both ways especially since he legitimizes his own beliefs, irrational and stupid as they might sound to those of another culture based on Western values and sensibilities. Western values and sensibilities (read colonization) did more harm to Pakistan (historically as part of India and even currently) than Sufi beliefs or choice of marriage partner.
Dot on, Harvard man! Pretty realistic piece. One thing however has been missed. Pakistani generals are hellbent to sideline the populast, and majority leader Nawaz Sharif, and have planned to instal this puppet Imran in his place, who suiting their plans does not know his elbow from his ass. A sad state of affairs in that country that the boots wouldn’t let democracy take roots.
And so the dream of Pinki Pirni was also seen by a journalist or now journalists like you write articles on someone’s dreams !
Wow how low can you get and how low the publisher.
Next you will write about dreams of Reham Khan. Or any other politicians and their personal life. ?
ln this country it politics is a circus and jounalism a joke, Imran would have stayed away from this puddle of gutter water, but now since he is in it so obviously he would stink, as far as the rest are concerned they are filthy to the core.
People tahought of IK as a forward looking, educated leader but unfortunately, he has always been supportive of older system of justice in tribal areas, like “Jirga”, well wisher of Taliban (Rather he was nominated by Taliban to represent them in talks with Gov before action by Army) and now following this female “spiritual leader” whose mental status needs to be evaluated.
A nation can’t be lead on whims of someone’s spiritual revelations!
He would have earned more respect, like Eidhi if had continued with his welfare work!

Philander with irrational fits and a proved sesualist.A stigma! A laday of 5 childern with
two married now playing an ill- game in the pen of an old cock.Shame on both of them.
Critical comments are made about Imran Khan marriage with a political motive. He has been expressing his desire for marriage since long time. He has attempted to settle in a family life but has failed earlier. I pray for his happy married life.I hope that others also wish him same instead making him a target.
The article is quite factual and balanced.I fully appreciate the writer and agree with the contents therein.
Imran is pseudo character as his clan belongs to Naizi tribe.Therefore, he is a liar and deceiver ab initio.
It is unislamic to hide one’s caste and adopt a false one.It is a sin which is attached with him since long.He is not a simple muslim in charater as he never prayes or observe fasting.He is unnecessarily given a starhood by only defeated forces.His engagement in politics is strengthened by his supporters who are hooligans and themselves morally corrupted.Regarding his marriage on the notion of Sufisim is nothing but a polished fornication.At 66 he is like a stud to quench his lust rather than suffice the purpose of a real marriage.He is therefore ایک بدنر اور ناز
Rubbishly written with full of hates. All those who had done corruption in there lifes are against Imran Khan, they are internally scared that if he came into power he will catch us too, so get against him.
Insha Allah you will be answerable on the Judgement day.
Utter rubbish , lacks facts and more of imran phobia. Writer needs to stop trying to cashin to ruler party’s paid propaganda and try writing some thing tangible and relevant .
You became a lawyer to write fluff tabloid pieces for an adversary-state based newspaper.
Life sometimes demands introspection. One day you’ll be forced to sit down and wonder what you’ve become. I couldn’t care less about Imran Khan’s personal life, but I just want you to remember me when that happens.
Well written. It’s definitely made the upcoming elections that much more hilarious. Now trying to watch Imran fight will be interesting and for the sake of comic relief and satire, I wish he comes close to winning. The post loss saga will be another sight to behold, but not as much as when he leaves the rather terrifying looking soulless woman, and marries for the fourth time. Let the games begin.
it’s grotesque to see Pakistani media outlets/journalists are descending on the lowest level possible. This article is a mere propaganda narrative Nawaz league and cronies are trying to sell by spending billions of rupees of taxpayers money. The father of the nation was a principled man and despised mixing politics with personal life for political gains. Jinnah knew about Nehru’s ongoing affair with lady Mountbatten but not once did he raise the issue in public. Because the man had high moral standards and dignity. He envisioned a country with similar virtues. But unfortunately, Pakistan has hit rock bottom. They have absolutely nothing to criticize Imran Khan on corruption or money laundering etc. So, therefore, the dying urge to somehow bring him down leads to character assassination and personal attacks. SHAME ON YOU!!!!!
Basless and copy paste story from a lawyer must be Punjabi thinker lay down same agenda as his cronies chore Sharif s .and biased towards a selfmade political leader .it does not get any better his is the most honest and truthful person in Pkaistan he had seen so much he Don’t even care .بونے بونے ھی رھتے ھیں چاھے ھاورڈ سے پڑھ لیں
Sufism has long been a mystic dimension of Islam, a comparatively liberal and tolerant manifestation that, historically, in South Asia at least, bridged many differences with other creeds. Traditionally, authentic Sufis have kept away from politics and similar worldly activities- and it is quite bizarre to see Imran and his new wife with extremely dubious pseudo-sufi claims, trying to befool the nation with highly pretentious claims. It also seems highly likely that the new Mrs Imran Khan herself deliberately leaked the early details of her marriage to ‘Herr Kapitan’ to the press in a bid to garner fame. If so, then IK seems to have found his ultimately ambitious and unscrupulous match.
By calling it a mental illness, you’re trivializing the issue of mental health and the stigma associated with it. Sure, Imran Khan’s aberrant behavior raises eyebrows, but it certainly doesn’t qualify as a mental illness and you have no right to mock someone like this; you’re a lawyer and not a medical practitioner. Often, superstitions are not just a result of blind indoctrination, but a response from the brain which records the steps leading to favorable outcomes.
The terms used in this personal attack are sad and desperate. Rental liberals like Yasser should see who India chose as their PM not even a single elected/non-elected PM in Pak had such brutal credentials. I have never seem such harsh criticism on someone’s marriage. The “Seasoned Politicians” of Nawaz sharif’s party are famous notorious marriages. But let’s not questions this writer’s employers. I am sure this writer has a mindset as pathetic as his views on someone’s marriage.
yasser is racist and bigot. can i be racist too? wait… look yourself in the mirror. you are labeling them as an uneducated persons just because you are in Harvard now but, you need to consider your age as well besides that you can only be a journalist/lawyer.
We have known Imran Khan has defeated all and every challenge and challengers he ha encountered. You may write whatever with your mixed western and Hindustani values. Therefore, we wait to see if he shuts your mouth and pen or otherwise.
Even the compulsory grace time period between divorce and new marriage which is called iddat and lasts 3 months and 10 days was not spared. Bushra manika got divorced in mid November and was supposed to get remarried in mid February. Not only both parties lied about the marriage, they abused the iddat as well. What kind of sadiq amin and good character is this?
Bullshit. This gutter writer must hate Imran Khan. Never seen such a blunt article on the matrimonial life of anyone, ever. Totally throwing shit at IK on a personal level.
Depressing and Hilarious by an equal measure also applies to your narrow minded approach to a very personal issue. And mental problem is not when someone has a direct line to who ever or what ever they believe in, its when there is a direct correlation between corruption and incompetence, and your leader NS commands both.
Those in the Indian media who seem to be inordinately enamored of Imran Khan and report breathlessly on his various activities, should take a deep breath and take a clear-headed look at their hero. This man has moved down the path of madness.
I feel very sad after reading your article Yasir Sahib, though I am a fan of your ideology on religious freedom. I’m startled at the reaction of Imran Khan’s followers, it’s Imran’s choice to marry who ever he wants be it hijabi . How can Hijab offend his followers? Wearing a Hijab is a clear commandment in Surah Al Noor and Surah Ahzaab,Does Bushra Sahiba have the choice to fulfill that command of God? If yes, then no one has the right to complaint about it . It’s her choice and her life. As for Imran Khan , a nation which can not differentiate between corrupt and an honest ,straight forward people like Imran khan , They are choosing disaster for them .
Is not it an attempt to hoodwink more than two hundred millions people ? A interesting story which has many elements but the overwhelming one seems to be an obsessive quest for power. I reckon that the power equation in the country is too complicated to be solved by dreams. Let us be real and leave daydreaming.
I’m a huge supporter of IK but must admit his choice of marriage to the likes of Pinki Pirni has left many of us totally flabbergasted! Pinki in a red veil! I mean seriiusly! Khan has lost his marbles, I’m very sorry to say! The gorgeous Jemima, then the very attractive Reham Khan … and now Pinki Pirni??!!!
Jealousy is a curse which instigates the writer to poke his nose in other people personal matters. Speculation and hatred is clear. I hope sense pervails by the writer
You have badly mixed up Piri Muridi and spiritualism. Do some research before you go on to write such a column. Imran Khan’s support is intact and growing everyday. IK has performed a religious duty & you should be ashamed of yourself by making it controversial.
Very well written and totally agreed with your observations. Pro Taliban Imran Khan never fails to make a monkey of himself, his party and his followers. Unfortunately, they are left with only one job now i.e. to defend stupidities of their leader.
It was Nawaz Sharif who took the money from Usama bin Laddan, and Late Banazir Bhutto establish the Talibans.
Its you ppl who are defending rubblishly to Nawaz Sharif’s corruption but screwing baseless to the Chief Justice of Pakistan. Stupid ness of you people is that you won’t trust Your supreme court.
Choar kay Saathi b Choar.
Who defend Nawaz Sharif? Is there a single word about Nawaz Sharif and Chief Justice of Pakistan in this article????

If to the writer, Reham Khan appears as “the dignified former wife of Khan” then no more need to be said about the jaundiced vision of the writer.
And so the dream of Pinki Pirni was also seen by a journalist or now journalists like you write articles on someone’s dreams !
Wow how low can you get and how low the publisher.

I pray for happy married life of IK. Too much hatred by the writer.

To have sex without Nikah at your Farmhouses is sounds good but for libidos to Have a Nikah is Mental Illness. The irony is pathetically laughable.

Seems Imran Khan is too much into Games of Thrones…

Very well written and ik has serious mental issues otherwise every sane person knows how these peers make fool of others, rather ruin ppls lives.
Do you have personal experience of those peers?

couldn’t agree more, a core personality analysis, sadly disappointment for many. a very well written article, based on bare facts.

This guy is a visiting fellow at Harvard Law School.? Such a bigot.
Don’t you know Harvard chooses those among the “Third World” who can be manipulated and do the dirty work of Western imperialism? Why the surprise?
Lost him when he said “dignified”
You’re totally a bullshit, how much you got from PMLN for all this shit.
What can we expect from a cheap & paid journalist?
It’s fully funded story by the Govt of Pakistan nothing else

Reham Khan the dignified former wife????
She can be anything but dignity. You need to go to psychiatrist for your treatment
REaly bad patwari g keep it up for money .

Harvard Law School needs to improve its standards, if its visiting fellows write such baseless articles..
you need to do research on a lot things
Dont agree . He is just one more guy who thinks with his dick.

Some illiterate mentally sick person have written this pathetic article.

IK HAS REMARRIED?! SO WHAT … BUT MARRIED A BURKHA CLAD WOMAN! GIVE ME A BREAK KHAN JI!
I’m a huge supporter of IK but must admit his choice of marriage to the likes of Pinki Pirni has left many of us totally flabbergasted! Pinki in a red veil! I mean seriiusly! Khan has lost his marbles, I’m very sorry to say! The gorgeous Jemima, then the very attractive Reham Khan … and now Pinki Pirni??!!!
Seems like a hit job to me
I m an indian living in Saudia arabia.ur whole article is crap u r biased it’s quite clear from it this shit
Jealousy is a curse which instigates the writer to poke his nose in other people personal matters. Speculation and hatred is clear. I hope sense pervails by the writer
You have badly mixed up Piri Muridi and spiritualism. Do some research before you go on to write such a column. Imran Khan’s support is intact and growing everyday. IK has performed a religious duty & you should be ashamed of yourself by making it controversial.
A religious duty breaking up a 30 year old marriage????? haha!
Broke up was not on this wedding base.
Most of the things about the divorce of the Reham and Imran, Manekas are baseless. Too much hatred in this article.
*baseless* was also this wedding a month ago, now it is right there.
So well written and encapsulates it all.
Very well written and totally agreed with your observations. Pro Taliban Imran Khan never fails to make a monkey of himself, his party and his followers. Unfortunately, they are left with only one job now i.e. to defend stupidities of their leader.
*mockery*
It was Nawaz Sharif who took the money from Usama bin Laddan, and Late Banazir Bhutto establish the Talibans.
Its you ppl who are defending rubblishly to Nawaz Sharif’s corruption but screwing baseless to the Chief Justice of Pakistan. Stupid ness of you people is that you won’t trust Your supreme court.
Choar kay Saathi b Choar.
Who defend Nawaz Sharif? Is there a single word about Nawaz Sharif and Chief Justice of Pakistan in this article????
