Food Street Gawalmandi, Lahore
Unfortunately in Pakistan, our leaders cannot see their poor countrymen enjoying and recreating. Lahore Food Street was established about 9 years ago with the efforts of Mr. Kamran Lashari, that time Director of Parks and Horticulture Authority Punjab. It was one of the mostly visited tourism sites in Lahore. One could get all types of continental and traditional dishes on his table no matter where he wanted to sit in the Food Street. Shops and houses on its sides were given beautiful touch with lights and decoration. Punjab Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif order to close this beautiful spot after coming in power. The reason was just that he felt smell of Musharraf and Pervaiz Illahi coming out of this place, just because this venue ‘unfortunately’ was selected during their government.
We highly condemn this decision and want to tell Shahbaz Sharif that he has played with the emotions of Lahoris who are live and loving people. Time will tell the present PML (N) government in Punjab that they took a very shameful decision.
MQM committed to stand with Musharraf 26 Aug 2009

For last 3-4 days, Mutahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) has come up with a new plan to divert public attention from Pervaiz Musharraf’s expected trial. They have started propagating that Nawaz Sharif took action against MQM in 1992, in which their 15,000 workers got killed. Now they are asking Nawaz Sharif to reply for this. It’s a pre-planned game being played with the full back support of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP). People of Pakistan still remember that Naseer Ullah Babar played a major role in crushing MQM during the PPP rule in early 90,s. People also remember what this killing political party did on 12th May 2007 in Karachi when dismissed Chief Justice of Pakistan landed at Karachi airport. If MQM is very neat and clean why their Quaid (head) Altaf Hussain does not come back to Pakistan instead of living in London for last 16-17 years.
In actual MQM wants that Pakistan Muslim League (N) must stop their movement against Musharraf, in which they are demanding the National Assembly for taking action against him for dismissing the constitution of Pakistan. Insha Allah a day will come when Musharraf will have to pay for his sins.

New York: the movie
Last week I got a chance to watch Bollywood movie New York. The story is based on Indo-American Muslims who are captured by the US FBI after 9/11 incident, just because they were Muslims. John Abraham, Katrina Kaif, Nithil Neil and Irfan Khan have given great performances in their roles. Film Director has done a great effort by giving a message that terrorism provokes due to unjust treatment of FBI with the innocent people, who are caught because of their religious beliefs only, without any solid evidence against them. Locations and characterisation is awesome.
Two beautifully shot melodious songs ‘Mere Sang’ and ‘Hey Junoon’ add to the grace of movie..

It has been heard that supreme leader of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan Mr. Bait Ullah Mehsood got assassinated in an attack made by the US spy plane (drone) in the night falling between 5th and 6th August.
This authenticity of this news is yet to be confirmed, however most of the reliable resources have confirmed the news. Indeed this is a great news for Pakistani nation, who has been paying a lot due to the extremicism and terrorism in Pakistan. This man was responsible for many attacks, including attacks on the Sri Lankan Cricket Team and many suicidal attacks on law enforcing agencies. This killing has proved very useful and after it there is a significant improvement seen in the country’s law and order situation.

Dr. Shahid Masood in 'Meray Mutabiq'
On Sunday 26th July, Dr. Shahid Masood presented a very good episode of his popular Geo TV documentary programme ‘Meray Mutabiq’. He focussed on the recent notice of Supreme Court of Pakistan issues to General (retd.) Pervaiz Musharraf in which he has been invited to defend his imposing of the notorious Provisional Constitutional Order (PCO) on 3rd November 2007.
Dr. Shahid Masood commented that USA would be doing the same with Musharraf that he did with other such dictators, like Saddam Hussain, Raza Shah Pehlvi, Marcos and many others. Then he showed the scenes from Iran when people came out on the roads against the dictator king Mr. Raza Shah Pehlvi asking for his quit. The king wanted help from USA, Panama and Egypt, but none of these countries provided him the shelter and he died in Cairo later. Some parts of his last interview to a French anchorman were also shown, in which the King was looking very dishearted.
Dr. Shahid also interviewed Dr. Sher Afgan Niazi, one of the loyal friends of Musharraf. Dr. Niazi could not reply Dr. Shahid’s questions properly and finally admitted that Musharraf took unconstitutional step on 3rd November 2007 and in reality it was a ‘martial law’.
Dr. Shahid Masood concluded that it was the time for Musharraf’s trial for all his unfair acts during his unconstitutional reign. He added that Musharraf’s future would not be very different from Raza Shah Pehlvi and other dictators.

Lawyers chanting slogans against Musharraf
Supreme Court of Pakistan yesterday issued a notice to ex-President of Pakistan General (retd.) Pervaiz Musharraf for appearing before the Court or submitting a relpy in the justification of his PCO imposing on 3rd November 2007. It is being said that its time for Musharraf’s accountability. US convoy Mr. Richard Halbrock, who is in Islamabad these days, has also commented that their Government is not going to interfere in this internal matter of Pakistan.
On the other hand, Attorney General of Pakistan Mr. Latif Khosa also has denied to defend Musharraf on behalf of the Government of Pakistan. People of Pakistan are very much eager to see the dictator behind the bars, who put our nation in big problem…..
