  In a notable turn of events, the political landscape of PK-72 witnesses a significant shift as Azmat Khan, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz's (PML-N) candidate, secures another victory by welcoming Tajik Muhammad Abrar Amin, a former leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), into the PML-N fold. This development underscores the growing appeal of PML-N in the region, with Azmat Khan attributing this trend to the party's commitment to national development and the welfare of its people. Azmat Khan's Political Journey: Azmat Khan, recently nominated as the PML-N candidate for the PK-72 seat, has rapidly emerged as a formidable political force in the region.

  In a stunning turn of events that could rival Shakespearean tragedies, the political landscape in Pakistan has taken a darkly comedic twist. The latest episode features Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Vice Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), as the unwitting star of a tragicomedy that would leave even the Bard scratching his head. Qureshi, recently released and re-arrested with a flair for dramatic exits, entered the courtroom like a protagonist in a gripping play. Handcuffed, he walked towards justice with the poise of a man who had just discovered the script was written by Kafka. As the courtroom drama unfolded, Qureshi pleaded with the judge to record his statement first, a request that likely had the writers of this tragicomedy rolling in laughter. He recounted a harrowing tale of being tortured and ridiculed, transforming the courtroom into a stage where the lines between tragedy and farce blurred like a poorly subtitled foreign film. In a surprising twist, the judge ordered t...

  In a stunning twist of political poker, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) seems to be dealing cards from a deck of alliances and seat adjustments, with one notable exception – the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). It appears that the PTI is the black sheep of the political family, facing a colder shoulder than a snowman in the desert. Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari, the puppet master of this political theatre, recently visited Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where he played the role of a stern parent forbidding his provincial leaders from cozying up to Imran Khan's PTI. The reason? The PTI has apparently been in the eye of the storm since the May 9 incidents, whatever those may be – perhaps a political barbecue that got out of hand. While PPP leaders in Punjab were contemplating a political dance with the PTI to counter the PML-N, Zardari has decided to pull the plug on this potential tango. Talk about leaving Imran Khan on 'read.' The real winner in this political soap opera? The Jamiat ...

  In a dramatic turn of events at the Lahore High Court (LHC), the release of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Senior Vice President Sher Afzal Marwat has ignited a fervor in legal and political circles. Marwat's arrest on December 14, under the Maintenance of Public Order (3MPO), raised eyebrows and led to a legal battle that culminated in a significant court order for his release. The unfolding events underscore the delicate balance between political dynamics and the rule of law in the Pakistani landscape. The Arrest: On that fateful December day, Marwat found himself in the crosshairs of law enforcement as he exited the Lahore High Court premises after attending a lawyers' convention. The arrest, captured in a viral video shared on social media, depicted a chaotic scene with police officials physically apprehending Marwat, while indignant lawyers attempted to intervene. The incident not only sparked outrage but also triggered a cascade of legal proceedings that would ultimatel...

In a surprising turn of events, the Supreme Court of Pakistan has taken on the role of the ultimate makeover guru for constituencies, leaving citizens wondering if they've accidentally tuned into a political reality TV show. Move over, Project Runway; it's time for Project Run the Country! In a recent episode of "Constituency Couture," the Supreme Court, led by the fashion-forward acting Chief Justice Sardar Tariq Masood, teamed up with Justice Mansoor Ali Shah and Justice Athar Minallah to address the crucial issue of constituency glam-ups just in time for the highly anticipated general elections scheduled for February 8. The show kicked off with a jaw-dropping ruling – no objections allowed after the election schedule release. It seems the Supreme Court bench has decided to throw out any fashion critiques or makeover suggestions once the election catwalk is set in stone. The contestants? The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and the Balochistan High Court (BHC),...

  In recent diplomatic developments, Pakistan has taken a proactive stance on the global stage, addressing critical issues that affect not only its own security but also the broader landscape of international peace and justice. Pakistan's Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Usman Jadoon, highlighted the alarming trend of banned terrorist organization Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) acquiring modern weaponry for carrying out attacks in the country. Simultaneously, Pakistan's Permanent Representative, Munir Akram, urged the establishment of a special tribunal to investigate Israel's alleged war crimes against Palestinians. These initiatives underscore Pakistan's commitment to global peace, security, and justice. Addressing the Threat of Terrorism: During a UN Security Council open debate on the threat posed by the diversion, illicit trafficking, and misuse of small arms and light weapons, Deputy Permanent Representative Usman Jadoon brought attention t...

  In a surprising turn of events, it seems that the political heat in the country is not the only thing on the rise – so is the temperature of the comedic climate! As major political parties gear up for the upcoming general elections, they've inadvertently launched what could only be described as the greatest comedy show on Earth. Picture this: politicians engaging in a 'poster war' so intense that even Banksy would be impressed. The streets are now a vibrant canvas of smiling faces, promises of prosperity, and the occasional awkward politician caught mid-sentence on a campaign poster. Forget Netflix – the real entertainment is happening on every lamppost and street corner. The battle for electoral supremacy has reached new heights, and it seems the contenders are leaving no stone unturned, or in this case, no poster unprinted. Printing presses, normally just churning out mundane documents, have now become the unsung heroes of this political circus, cashing in on the surgin...

  In a jaw-dropping plot twist that would make even seasoned soap opera writers blush, Pakistan is about to embark on a hilariously unconventional political journey. The PPP has decided to spice things up by casting PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari as the aspiring prime minister and his father, the charismatic Asif Ali Zardari, as the presidential pick. Move over, political pundits; it's time for a laugh-out-loud family comedy in the world of Pakistani politics! Faisal Karim Kundi, the party's information secretary, broke the news, leaving the nation in stitches and wondering if they accidentally tuned into a political satire channel. "Bilawal can be the [candidate] and I can be too … Khurshid Shah also says he can be made [the prime minister]," quipped Asif Ali Zardari earlier, as if they were playing a game of 'Who Wants to be a Politician?' With aspirations to recreate the magic of 2018, the PPP is clearly on a mission to prove that politics isn't ju...

In a stunning turn of events, the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa recently expressed his regret over the delayed fixing of a presidential reference regarding the controversial 1979 death sentence of former Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. The case, which has been likened to a legal soap opera, was described by CJP Isa as the "oldest pending remaining presidential reference," making it the Methuselah of legal disputes. As the nine-member larger bench of the apex court convened, it resembled a star-studded cast with CJP Isa leading the charge, supported by a lineup including Justice Sardar Tariq Masood, Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah, and a host of other legal luminaries. One can only imagine the behind-the-scenes drama as the legal eagles prepared for this epic episode. The presidential reference, filed in 2011 by none other than former President Asif Ali Zardari, sought the Supreme Court's opinion on revisiting Bhutto's death sentence. This reference, ...
