After thunderous applause on promotion/extension is over, take a pause. Spare a thought also to distortions & imbalance in power structure. Titles are not merely ceremonial. They can tilt structures. Give a thought to terrorism, the enemy within, that has wrecked Pakhtunkhwa

Tahira Abdullah & Samina Omar may be free now, but the very act of detaining them is most reprehensible. Claiming to uphold cause of Palestine but detaining two female activists for wearing scarfs of Palestinian flag in solidarity with women & children of Ghaza is hypocrisy

Sen Mushtaq sent to jail today without due legal process. Earlier, his wife Humaira sent to jail while Tahira Abdullah & Mrs Umar detained/released after public outcry. Their common 'crime'; raising voice against Ghaza massacre. Condemn it in strongest terms. Demand release.

Deeply grieved over death of Senator Abbas Afridi. He was a dynamic, active senator & minister and a compassionate, well-meaning & sincere human being who reached out to others. He will be missed for a long time. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Deepest condolences.

Shocked over brutal killing of Khan Zeb, a man of peace, critic of militants. A few weeks ago, shared with him platform demanding provincial rights & against Mines & Minerals Bill, KP. He spoke with clarity & conviction. Loss not only of ANP but all. RIP dawn.com/news/1923407

Barbaric, most condemnable. But after condemnation, expressing resolve to fight militants & routine blame games, let us also pause and ponder over the issues people of the province face. Shutting eyes to grievances of a people is an invitation to disaster dawn.com/news/1923411
