Question for Pakistani military: Will they finally recognise that the suppression of civic movements like the Pashtun Tahafuz Movement is a path to national disintegration?
Even though over 20% of Pakistan's military is Pashtun and they are well represented in the bureaucracy, the gap between the Punjab-dominated state and the Pashtun people is widening.
Singer, poet and scholar, Karan Khan’s music is derived from his experiences and lived identity as a Pashtun. A police 'attack' on his concert didn't go well with Pakistanis.
Like Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi, the Bhutto-Zardari siblings have been ghettoised by their parents’ politics. But unlike the Gandhis, they are also a symbol of hope for their people.
PTM's cause is Pakistan's cause. It is only asking for what’s in the Constitution, but the establishment has nothing to gain by implementing the Constitution.
If there is bad blood between the CEC and the Opposition leaders, it will shake the people’s faith in election results. It’s the worst thing that could happen to Indian democracy.
Indian toymakers are now exploring new markets, but they want govt to negotiate a trade deal with US soon, introduce incentives and subsidies to make the industry more competitive.
The deal, believed to be paid for by a third nation, will give the Sudanese Armed Forces access to light attack aircraft, engines, armoured fighting vehicles & unmanned aerial vehicles.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
