Power crisis worsens as PM springs into action

Muhammad Younus Butt

Why the Caretaker P.M is so much negligect of common man`s severe problems of electricity,if he cannot do any betterment for the public,let him go home and enjoy a retired life with his kids.Why he is so much unaware of public basic problems Allah has awarded him 5 senses,is he using all his Allah-gifted blessings for the general public.Or he is only interested to have solutes and honours for him everytime.Dear P.M this is not the perfect duty awarded to you.on the Day of Justice,you will be asked for all your activities and actions given you to how serve the poor public.Mr.Khoso wakes up and see how innocent ibfants,helpless elders are suffering the peoblems and how their daytoday are going on be public servant and not try to act as the previous dictators have done their jobs and severely they will be sealt for their works.

Zardari believes PPP defeated per ‘script’

Nazia

Yes just like that as PPP was given top seat in 2008 election and he was elected as President for nothing but surely as per script.He had taken this choice at that time and now his term has been terminated along with lots of failure accounted in Zardari's account. He could surely pleased few groups in his time but couldn't please his nation even for a month in five years.Even BSIP programs beneficiaries didn't come out to vote for PPP.This was also written in the script?
