    I, along with countless other parents, represent no MAFIA and take PERSONAL offence to this. SNC has no spirit and no utility for us and we don't want it. and 'make no mistake', we will fight it.

    The MAFIAS against the implementation of Single National Curriculum are launching personal attacks on me to deter me from my path. Make no mistake about it, SNC will be implemented in its full letter and spirit. These MAFIAS have only personal interests and Slave Mentality.

    I don’t care how accurate the AQI readings are, the city this morning is just gray, we are breathing in soot and no this is not fog!

    Most of us blame Zia for islamisation of Pakistan, but wasn’t Bhutto really the most divisive political leader we have had? Declaring Ahmed’s non Muslims for one, amongst several other steps

    Pakistanis are flocking to cities faster than any other country in South Asia. Resultantly, a fifth of all Pakistanis now live in just 10 cities. pakistangrowthstory.org/2019/05/20/urb… @UNDP_Pakistan @CDPRPak @The_IGC

    Half the people I know have not been able to vote. If this is not pre poll rigging than what is.

    Why was Qamar Zaman Kaira informed the way he was about his son’s death? If there is anything more shocking than such a young death is the way he was told about it. Have we no dignity or humanity as a nation? So insensitive. #QamarZamanKaira

    Apparently smog has now been declared an “emergency” by the @GovtofPunjabPK. Today AQI is above 500 for Lahore, so what actions have been triggered by that? None. As a citizen I am very disappointed by the governments indifference to this and #Dengue

    Replying to @NidaKirmani
    Social protection was revamped, creation of NCOC, national health insurance program was started. To name a few things. Many things didn’t go right but some that did

    With everyone flocking to the mountains, is the government thinking about any form of sustainable tourism? Crazy tourist influx, flights, hotel development, without a overall plan is I’m afraid going ruin these places. What eco friendly steps are being taken by the government?

    Is there anyone other than the privileged, elite, “liberal” class that consider Musharraf a true and brave leader of Pakistan?

    Climate change is real but governments should not use this term to free themselves of all responsibility. It was a natural calamity made MUCH MUCH worse by unregulated human activity and poor governance.

    Why is there NOTHING on reducing expenditures, curtailing the size of government and military expenditures? Aren't citizens doing enough already? Wouldn't that also be a quick way to create some fiscal space to pacify IMF. I would say it is also a need of the hour. #IMF

    Banning imported goods is only going to give a boost to the black economy as borders are open and will make us lose our only source of foreign exchange at the moment, coming in through formal channels : remittances !
