MAJOR SHIFT IN POWER POLITICS IN PUNJAB -Insaf Blog
How can you miss the elephant in the room ! I am so shocked and surprised that like the media and morons in opposition most of our Facebook brothers on these forums have neither noted nor understood what has happened. I am talking about IK’s press conference on the new local government system in Punjab last evening. Most people have failed to understand the gravity, ...
ENDOGENOUS ECONOMY - Insaf Blog
Just like Rome was not built in a day, Pakistan was not de-structured in a day. The seeds for the prevailing mess were laid with the Economic Reforms Act of 1992. Thereafter PMLN and Zardari governments have worsened the rot. The government of President Musharraf led by Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz squandered a post 9/11 opportunity when Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves blew...
A History of Pakistan And Its Loans - Insaf Blog
We all have been listening to all the big opposition parties in the assemblies giving big speeches about economy and how the current government is responsible for the inflation and increased taxes. What they are not talking about in their speeches is the harsh reality that the current government has nothing to do with the instability in the financial scenario. All the hustle and bustle is...

VULTURES PERCH WHERE EAGLES DARE - Insaf Blog
There are glaring aspects of Pakistan’s economic negatives that despite repeated rejoinders constantly go unnoticed. Why is it that from 2005 onwards, Pakistan’s economy suddenly began to become non-productive and in reds? This is despite the fact that astronomical amounts in local and foreign currency have been injected into the system. This includes over 30,000 billion in public and...
Next generations dream of a better Pakistan - Insaf Blog
"There was a generation that sacrificed and gave us a homeland - They even contributed to build it within meagre resources. Then came a generation that elected the likes of Zardari, Nawaz, Altaf, Fazlo and gave the next generation an impression that loot, ethnicity, corruption, fighting for basics is your destiny. This 3rd generation of Pakistan became detached to Pakistan, its...
Seeing is Believing - Insaf Blog
After many counter attacks on the biggest mega project of the PTI government in KP’s "Billion Tree Tsunami" by the opposition parties & finally after the initiation of a Parliamentary Committee by Speaker of Provincial Assembly KP, we, a group of Female MPs from the treasury benches decided to visit one of the spots of this mega project to have an eye witness account of the progress...
OPENING SALVOS NOT BATSMEN - Insaf Blog
Asad Umar has resigned as finance minister of Pakistan. He was provided an exit he availed gracefully. My advice to him would be to stick to the core and resist temptation to become a sacrificial lamb for red herrings. The widely acclaimed poster boy was never cut for this job. Finance is a middle order position while opening batsmen are the home led growth and production. With his...

Waqt Chahiey - Insaf Blog by Hboor Fatima
وقت چاہیے. پاکستان لا الہ الا اللہ کے نظام کے نفاذ کے لیے دیکھا جانے والا وہ خواب ہے جو ستر سال پہلے پایہ تکمیل کو پہنچ چکا۔ خوابوں کو حقیقت کا متضاد سمجھا بھی اور کہا بھی جاتا ہے؛جو کہ سچ بھی ہے۔ الحمداللہ چشم فلک نے اقبال کے اس خواب کو جناح کے ہاتھوں حقیقت بنتے ہوئے دیکھا۔ گویا اس کو پانے کے لیے مسلمانوں کو عبرت ناک سزائیں برداشت کیں ۔ املاک تو گیا سو گیا۔۔۔۔۔...
Healthy criticism or mudslinging? Insaf Blog
Ever since PTI came into power, a strange and peculiar behavior has been observed spurting among a few fellows from our journalism community. As resentful as it may sound but a community that is ethically responsible for bringing the truth to masses holds a secret dark history which dates back to the era of Sharif’s, real and fake Bhutto’s and other minor political crooks. On one hand,...
Production and Consumption-led growth - Insaf Blog
The Minister of State for Revenue, Hammad Azhar’s article ‘The Economy in 2019’ is a brave attempt to justify many hard decisions of his government. Do his explanations of a consumption led growth, fiscal ill-discipline, domestic borrowing, exchange rate overvaluation, fiscal deficit and import export imbalance serve the ends of arresting the rot? This is an over simplification like...
A little piece of Heaven in Pakistan - Insaf Blog
While the chattering, thumbing, typing, opinionated, full stomached, overly wealthy, overly stupid and ignorant, so called elite of this country bitches and moans every day on WhatsApp and Facebook in drawing rooms and meeting rooms, many angels quietly slog away at making a difference in the life of the extremely vulnerable, poor and most at risk, in Pakistan! They impact the lives of...

Our hopes and aims are still high - Insaf Blog
ہمیں فخر ہے کہ ہم تحریک انصاف کے فرنٹ لائن مجاہدین میں رہے ہیں۔ آپ ہمیں نہ بتائیں کہ خدانخواستہ ہم پی ٹی آئی کی جیت کے لئے لڑنے پر شرمندہ ہیں۔ ہرگز نہیں ہم نے یہ جنگ چار ماہ چھ ماہ اور آٹھ ماہ کے پروپیگنڈوں کے جواب دینے کے لئے نہیں لڑی ۔ ہم نے یہ جنگ آٹھ ماہ سال کی ڈیڈ لائن کے لئے بھی نہیں لڑی۔ لیکن حیرت ان پر ہوتی ہے جن کی صبر کی ٹرین تین ماہ بعد ہی پٹری سے اتر گئی تھی اور...
