Why did Malala have a fight with his father today morning???

Special Report: In the Noble Prize distribution where Malala was rewarded with that prize one of my very close friend who is a journalist by profession was also there.  I am not giving his name because he has my words that I would not tell his name.  Yesterday night he was on skype with me and we were discussing some personal issue.  We were laughing on some point when he told the whole story of that noble prize distribution with a laughter.  He said for the last one week I am with Malala.   When I arrived at the Norway Reninge Heliport, Malala and his father come to welcome me out there.  When we were on our way I felt there is very little conversation is going on between Malala and his father and even they were not showing any gesture to each other.  Malala liked to sit on the back seat of the car besides sitting with his father with this Ipad and she started reading the speech which she had to deliver on that ceremony.  I was tal...

Pakistan and its Democracy

Pakistan and its Democracy:  The annual meeting of All India Muslim League for the year 1930 was organized at a big Haveli in Allahabad. When the official proceedings of the meeting began, there were less than 75 people in the enclosure, causing panic among the ranks of party officials. According to the party laws, the minimum requirement for meeting quorum at an annual meeting had to be at least 75 people. As a last resort, a famous Urdu poet was tasked with reciting one of his long poems until new members could be recruited by the officials—a process that took two hours. Finally, the official meeting commenced and the Presidential address was read by a Punjabi poet and politicians. The presidential address contained six references to democracy and all of those arguments were against the democratic system of governance. That particular address has been quoted ad nauseum by right-wing commentators and writers of Pakistan’s textbooks—very often the same people—as the first t...

Homeland recap: season four, episode eight – Halfway to a Donut

‘Carrie has no real option but to let the Taliban take Saul, but it  doesn't  make the act of doing it any less unpleasant.’ Photograph: Twentieth Century Fox/Ilze Kitshoff/Showtime Spoiler alert: This blog is for people watching Homeland series four. Don’t read on if you haven’t seen season four, episode eight Read the episode seven blog here. ‘There are only wrong choices’ A taut hour of spy games shot through with moral complexity and character-driven drama – Halfway to a Donut is the strongest episode of Homeland we’ve seen in quite some time, and certainly the best of the post-Brody era. It’s also, not coincidentally, the first time in a long while that Homeland has properly used its other great central relationship, Carrie and Saul. In Homeland’s early seasons, that pairing – Saul as the bruised mentor, Carrie as the self-destructive mentee – felt no less watchable than the relationship between Carrie and Brody. So I’ve been quite disappointed b...
