Just recently went past two news items; one was on a renowned international newspaper where the author discussed how Pakistan was beginning to turn around. He shared his experience how during his trip from Islamabad to Lahore he had seen huge infrastructure being built, witnessed heavy machinery alongside the roads, thousands of workers working on these projects worth billions of rupees. Second story was shared on a micro blogging website Twitter by an Indian journalist who visited Lahore for a few days to attend a conference. As soon as she touched the Indian soil, she tweeted she wished that one of our (Indian) rulers could build a city like Lahore. She just wished to have such wonderful infrastructure in one of the Indian cities.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
I just got stunned by these stories, in fact whole international press, donor and rating agencies are sharing good stories regarding Pakistan economy. Read Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, The Economist, New York Times, Khaleej Times, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, IMF, JETRO, Standard & Poor (improved Pakistan Rating), MISC’s thinking about bringing Pakistan stock market among emerging economies, Moody’s etc. But unfortunately when you tune in to Pakistani TV channels, it feels that all hell has already broken loose and we are about to vanish from the face of the earth.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Now let’s find out what exactly is happening. Are we really going to go bankrupt soon or there is a light at the end of the tunnel?</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Three years back, when this government took over, Pakistan’s foreign reserves were hovering around 3 billion dollars, international institutions were predicting a default, Pakistan was suffering from worst ever power crisis (industry faced long hours outages in Punjab while domestic consumers faced 16-18 hours of power breakdowns), fiscal deficit was 8-8.5%, public entities were draining hundreds of billions yearly, gas shortages were holding back the industry across the country but Punjab industry faced worst, hardly any growth in revenue, Karachi was handed over to target-killers, bhatta mafia and criminal gangs, while terrorism wave across the country shook Pakistan to its core. Thousands lost their lives in terror incidents. Government machinery was marred by corruption charges, every second minister was a regular visitor of courts on corruption charges, and ministers got jailed in corruption scams, looted money found in their bank accounts while one PM was disqualified.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
It was important to waste one paragraph on history as we in Pakistan have short memories and few of us live on very few brain cells. First thing first; three years into the government and not a single mega corruption scam surfaced despite repeated stories built in media by anchors of mega corruption. I will give 2 examples here:</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
1) LNG deal was made controversial, corruption worth hundreds of billions of rupees was found even before the deal was signed, when not even a single LNG cargo had anchored on our ports. Guess what happened. This government inked a historic deal, one of the cheapest deals even made in LNG sector In the entire world.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
2) NandiPur was made controversial despite knowing well that this government had nothing to do with the deal signed with the Chinese company. Some even claimed to have exposed corruption worth Rs 100-150 billion in a project worth Rs 58 billion. Government went ahead with independent audit and then the whole media went quiet, no one bothered to rectify their blunder.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: q_serif, Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Load shedding came down from 16-18 hours to just 6-8 hours, industrial feeders declared load shedding free across Pakistan, after years of industry getting uninterrupted gas supplies after landmark LNG deal made by this government. As I told you, we, as a nation, suffer from short-term memory loss. Previous two governments failed to seal the deal as corruption charges surrounded it, but this LNG deal will prove our lifeline in the years to come. During the last 15 years, not a single energy project was initiated by Musharraf or Asif Ali Zardari. The country continued to suffer heavy losses, almost 1% of GDP every year due to this power crisis but nothing was done except expensive rental power plant deals. As we speak, Pakistan energy sector is going through a revolution. Through a range of energy projects launched under CPEC, Pakistan will finally get rid of these power outages by the end of 2018, a total of 10-12k MW energy projects shall be commissioned by the end of 2018 and work on many other projects will start that will finish during next decade.</div>

When this government came into power, fiscal deficit, which is considered backbone of any economy, was hovering around 8-8.5%, now it has come down to 5% this fiscal year. Pakistan’s Tax-to-GDP ratio is lowest in the world yet during the last three years, major headway were made and this year Pakistan will successfully gather 3100+ billion rupees as tax. It is 20% increase in this fiscal year alone while in first two years, revenue increased by 30-31%. Tax-to-GDP will cross 10% this year. Pakistan’s reserves are touching 21 billion dollars and the stock market has been declared one of the best performing markets.</div>

FDI is finally improving as well. This year, almost 15.7% jump was witnessed almost reaching 1 billion dollar in first eight months of this fiscal year, and may witness significant jump in coming months/years as projects under CPEC are going on at full speed. Agricultural credit is touching all time high, local investment after years is showing healthy growth due to all-time low interest rates, inflation hovering around at acceptable levels of 3 to 4 percent (hope you all remember it was around 10% in PPP era). Yes, worrying sign is the continuously falling exports but, then again, exports are continuously falling for the last 6 months in India too. But FDI is improving dramatically, even surpassing China, and their GDP is touching 7% that is fastest in the world while Pakistan’s GDP touched 4.8% that is eighth fastest in the world, and is all set to touch 5% at the end of this fiscal year because Large Scale Manufacturing is also putting up some strong numbers. Hope you all remember the negative growth rate in PPP’s 5-year tenure. Remittances are showing continuous growth despite global slowing down of oil prices and low inflation numbers, this year again shows 4.4% growth, crossing 20 billion dollars.</div>

Apart from not declaring our sitting PM a RAW agent, there is a lot more that we can learn from our neighboring country. How Modi gets welcomed across the globe despite a poor reputation among middle classes due to Gujarat massacre? How Indians stand behind their PM when he visits abroad? How Indian media, immigrants, locals carry the shining India slogan? If my memory serves me right, in 1999 Indians faced the same economic challenges, were in miserable condition post nuclear blast sanctions. Pakistan faced a military coup and India faced the challenges with democracy. Now India is a 2.1 trillion dollar economy while Pakistan is 285 billion dollar economy, of which 50 billion dollar increase came during the last three years. Pakistan is turning around. Hope we all realize it and start accepting it and start contributing in its growth.</div>

<b><br /></b>
<b>I got My Driving Licence in 3 months in First Test,So this can be the case with you too, Inshallah</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Opening The File:</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Before you go to EDC (Emirates Driving Company) in Mussafah Make sure following documents are ready<br />
<ol>
<li>Passport Copy</li>
<li>Visa Copy</li>
<li>Emirates ID card Copies</li>
<li>NOC from your Employer </li>
<li>Keep 8 Photos</li>
<li>1000AED cash and some coins for photocopy machines</li>
</ol>
<div>
Take your documents with you early morning to Mussafah EDC and go to Traffic file opening building (The Building Where lots of Private training cars are parked out side the gate) ,ask from any guard they will guide you to right direction,go to first floor and on right side there is one counter they will check your documents and issue one token for eye test, Wait near the eyesight test room on your number pay 25 AED to the person and get a certificate and a token for next procedure, Take this token and go to waiting room once your token number is called/Shown on screens go to appropriate counter,their they will take your photo and after checking all the documents again your file will be opened with traffic section after paying the fee,they will issue you an appointment sheet,keep this with you and proceed to EDC training building Next building behind the costumer parking. (Again Asking the Guards is a good Idea)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Booking Theory Classes:</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
In EDC training building you will need to go to first counter to take your booking token and wait (this can be very long sometime more than 4 hours) on your turn go to counter book the theory classes fee is approximately 850 AED. Ask them to give you suitable time evenings or morning they will accommodate you as per your needs and the available seats in classes.they will issue a Theory book and theory classes schedule sheet</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Theory Classes:</b><br />
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Theory classes are conducted on first floor of same building and guard can guide you the way,make sure you reach the school 10 minutes in advance as the school is very strict on timings,on completion of theory classes you need to book theory test</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Theory Test:</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Book the Theory test from the same front desk and mostly you will get it after a few days,come on time on same first floor,the test will be mostly on 35 questions and very easy one,just read whole book at least once before you come to theory test,I passed with 35 marks out of 35 questions,after the test they will give you result in 45 minutes on the same floor,now if you have already your home country license (Must be a Card,not a book) you can go for direct road test booking,and like me if you don't have any , then opt for PEP test,book this test only if you have prior experience but not the license in any country,this test will cost you some 65 AED,this will be booked from the same front desk.make sure all the bookings which require payment should be done before 5 PM as they close the cash register on 5 PM.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>PEP Test:</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
PEP test is taken by EDC (Emirates Driving Company) Instructor in Parking Training Yard 2,which is near to central building, come 10 minutes early at least,go behind the booking counter a guard will guide you to transfer bus,the bus driver will stop at parking 2 and ask you to go to the office in yard,two instructors will sit with you and ask you drive as you know in the yard,don't touch any line,don't overtake,don't go very close to next vehicle, practice U-Turn on low width roads before you come for test,then based on your performance they will suggest how much practical training you require,if they give you AREA-2 you will pay 2350 AED approx and you have to book the Yard training from the same booking counter before 5 PM,very long wait is expected, so come early on working days, Friday is off, Yard is very busy so you may end up getting a booking after 3 months and there is nothing you can do to speed it up,</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Practical Yard Training:</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
From Area 1 to Area 5 you will learn basics of parking,turning in short radius and how to cross junctions,roundabouts,signals with an instructor siting beside you all the time</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Once the AREA 5 is completed your tower training will start from tower 2 to tower where you will repeat all the Area lesson but by your own,alone in the car,instructor will instruct you by wireless sets if they see anything wrong,be careful learn as much you can especially parking and leaving the parking is very important,don't drive to close or too fast although the driving speed is controlled,there will be a parking refresh class after Tower 5, Please note be careful if you make many mistakes or deadly one instructor will recommend you to go back to Area 1-5 again to train more with instructor in the car, which means more money and more time</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Parking Test:</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
After Tower 5 and Parking refresh class you can book your Parking test or Yard test both are same,you can book this any time even in evening,come 10 minutes early test is taken in the same area where PEP test is taken Parking 2,their will be two chances for each type of parking I cleared in first try,if you follow the parking tips this both parallel or 90 degree (Bay parking) is very easy,after passing the parking test instructor will give you practical training passing certificate,which you can use to book a road test.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Road Test:</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Before going to road test booking get a road training contract from any one of the instructors available on outside of the EDC,I prefered Mr Farman Sarwar 0529699046, he is very experienced and has a first try passing rate of 95% of his students,he will not give you useless lectures just ask you to drive and he will observe you very carefully and guide you all the way,call him and ask him to make a contract for you ,He will charge 50 AED,take this contract with EDC certificate attached to it to same building where you opened your File in first place,now instead of going to first floor go to same ground floor customer service counter a policeman will issue you a token and wait,on your turn take everything to the counter and they will book you road test and give you your training licence,keep this all the time during you road training,for first timer i suggest to take at least 10 classes from Mr Farman,he will make you perfect,and then have good sleep in prior night of test and pray in the morning,dress well,wear close shoes,look professional and greet the inspectors,i will write more once my test is done,wish you very good luck<br />
<br />
<b>Final Road Test:</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
The Day is here we talk much about, you need to go to Same building where you booked your test,go to counter they will assign you the bus you need to sit in,go out in the parking and pay around 25 AED to get a ticket for that bus ,lots of buses will be waiting for students came for tests, the number of buss will be written on your receipt sit in there, once all buses are full, the police inspectors will come with a list in hand they will call names one by one and confirm if you are present for the test, if your name is not called go out and ask any inspector about your name,they are very nice people and will help you to find correct bus, first student will take the test car one inspector in front and other in back seat will be the seating, pull out the car the bus will follow with remaining applicants, Drive very carefully keep your eyes scanning the area in front of you and on the back with the help of mirrors, inspectors may ask you to change lane,make a U-Turn or pull over for emergency,no matter what dont go above 60 if you are in Mussaffah Area, beware of heavy truck they usually dont care about you stay away from them their mistake can put your test results in danger, You will surprisingly find the inspectors very nice,gentle and kind,if they think you are good they can normally ignore small mistakes so dont panic if you made a mistake,dont make major but small is OK they will note how confidently you controlled the situation after making mistake. after two or three minutes driving the inspector will ask you to pull over,look mirrors,shoulder and everything you learned and select a safe place to pull over, use of indicators is very important as you are being tested for these, be confident not over confident as you will look irresponsible,<br />
<br />
I wish you Good luck,Just remember inspectors are not there to Fail you,they are very qualified for their jobs, so dont pay anyone anything, everything is on merit. dont get fooled by thugs outside of school,if you think you are not confident for the test take more classes on Musafah roads with instructor, practice makes you perfect,extra one hundred paid to training instructor can save you thousands in case you fail the test just because you did not train well<br />
<br />
Wish You Good Luck</div>

NEW DELHI: Adviser to Prime Minister on Foreign Affairs Sartaj Aziz has revealed that one of the mobile phone numbers linked to those who attacked the Pathankot airbase had been traced to the Jaish-e-Mohammed group’s headquarters in Bahawalpur.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #252525; font-family: Merriweather, serif; font-size: 1.28571rem; line-height: 1.65; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">
Mr Aziz called the lodging of the FIR in connection with the Pathankot assault a “logical and positive step” in bringing the perpetrators to justice.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #252525; font-family: Merriweather, serif; font-size: 1.28571rem; line-height: 1.65; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">
JeM chief Masood Azhar has been named by India as the mastermind of the airbase attack and Mr Aziz confirmed media reports that he (Azhar) had been under “protective custody” since Jan 14.</div>

جماعت اسلامی کی داخلی جمہوریت، پلڈاٹ رپورٹ اور صحافیوں کے تبصرے</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: right;">
پلڈاٹ نے پاکستان کی 8 بڑی سیاسی جماعتوں کی داخلی جمہوریت کے بارے میں رپورٹ پیش کی ہے اور اس میں جماعت اسلامی کو پہلے نمبر پر قرار دیا ہے ۔ یاد رہے کہ گزشتہ سال بھی جماعت اسلامی ہی پہلے نمبر پر رہی تھی۔ پلڈاٹ اس وقت پاکستان میں جمہوریت، پالیمانی نظام اور انتخابات کے جائزے کے حوالے سے سب سے معتبر اور غیرجانبدار ادارہ ہے اور اس کی رپورٹس اپنی اسی غیرجانبداری کی وجہ سے ہر دائرے میں قبولیت کا درجہ حاصل کرتی ہیں۔ اگرچہ پلڈاٹ رپورٹ میں جماعت پہلے نمبر پر رہی ہے مگر یہ ایک پہلے سے معلوم حقیقت ہے، ہر ذی شعور پاکستانی اس بارے میں جانتا ہے۔ جماعت بھلے سیاسی میدان میں بوجوہ کامیاب نہیں ہے اور اسے وہ عوامی مقبولیت حاصل نہیں ہو سکی جو کہ اپنی خوبیوں کی وجہ سے ہونی چاہیے مگر اپنی تنظیم، داخلی جمہوریت، امانت و دیانت، احتسابی نظام اور خدمت کی وجہ سے دوسری جماعتوں میں نہ صرف ممتاز ہے بلکہ ان حوالوں سے بطور پارٹی دور تک اس کا کوئی مقابل نہیں ہے۔</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: right;">
پلڈاٹ جیسا ادارہ ایسی رپورٹ پیش کرے اور ایسی رپورٹ مسلسل آنے لگیں تو بھلے سیاسی مقبولیت حاصل نہ ہو مگر پڑھے لکھے طبقے بالخصوص نوجوانوں اور انٹیلی جنیشیا میں ایک تاثر ضرور ابھرتا اور متبادل ضرور ذہن میں آتا ہے اور دیگر کئی عوامل اس لے کو آگے بڑھا سکتے ہیں۔ میرے خیال میں یہی وہ چیز ہے جو ہمارے بعض کرم فرمائوں سے ہضم نہیں ہوتی۔ شاید کوئی ان دیکھا یا انجانا خوف ہے کہ وہ جماعت اچھائی کو بھی برائی بنا کر پیش کرنے پر مجبور ہیں۔ کل یہ رپورٹ میڈیا میں آئی اور رات مختلف ٹی وی چینلز پر اس حوالے سے تبصرے ہوئے۔ ایک معروف ٹی وی چینل پر دو معروف اینکرز اس رپورٹ پر تبصرہ کر رہے تھے اور دونوں کا کہنا یہ تھا کہ جماعت کو پہلے نمبر پر قرار دیتے ہوئے پلڈاٹ سے ضرور کوئی غلطی ہوئی ہے، ان کا دل تو اس رپورٹ کو نہیں مان رہا۔ بنیادی اعتراض یہ تھا کہ جماعت میں تو امیدواران کا ہی معلوم نہیں ہوتا کہ کون امیدوار ہے اور الیکشن لڑ رہا ہے۔ اعتراض سے ہی اس کی حقیقت واضح ہے اور میرا نہیں خیال کہ اس سے کوئی بودا اور بے معنی اعتراض بھی ہو سکتا ہے، اس پائے کے صحافیوں سے اس بات کی توقع نہیں کی جا سکتی کہ اتنی بنیادی بات کو نہ سمجھتے ہوں۔ بھلا یہ کسی انتخاب میں ہوتا ہے کہ امیدواران ہی نہ ہوں اور انتخاب بھی ہو جائے؟ پھر کیا جماعت کا ابھی حال ہی میں امارت کا انتخاب نہیں ہوا اور اس میں نام معلوم نہیں تھے؟ کیا انھی ناموں میں سے ایک نئے امیر کا انتخاب نہیں ہوا؟ اور کیا ان پائے کے صحافیوں کو اس کی خبر نہیں ہو سکی۔ کیا یہ معلوم حقیقت نہیں ہے کہ جماعت میں موروثیت نہیں ہے، یہ دیگر تمام پارٹیوں کی طرح کوئی خاندانی جماعت نہیں ہے اور اس کے پانچوں امرا مختلف جگہوں سے منتخب ہوئے، آنے والے کا گزشتہ کیا پچھلے کسی امیر سے بھی کوئی رشتہ داری کیا علاقے کا بھی تعلق نہیں ہے۔ اس معلوم حقیقت کے ہوتے ہوئے بھی بھلا کوئی ایسا اعتراض کر سکتا ہے؟</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: right;">
جماعت قیام سے لے کر اب تک اپنے لکھے دستور کی پابند ہے، انتخاب امیر کا واضح طریق کار اس میں لکھا ہوا موجود ہے۔ ملک میں آمریت ہو یا جمہوریت ، حالات سازگار ہوں یا نہیں، جماعت کی تنظیم اور انتخابی نظام ایک لمحے کے لیے متاثر ہوا نہ کبھی اس سے انحراف ہوا ہے۔ مرکزی مجلس شوری انتخاب امیر و مجلس شوری کے لیے ایک مرکزی چیف الیکشن کمشنر اور ان کے ساتھ صوبائی الیکشن کمیشن کا تقرر کرتی ہے۔ تمام ارکان الیکٹورل کالج کی حیثیت رکھتے ہیں۔ ان تمام ارکان (اس وقت 35 ہزار سے زائد) کو بیلٹ پیپر جاری ہوتا ہے اور وہ اپنی رائے کا اظہار کرتے ہیں، امیر اور اپنی مجلس شوری کا انتخاب کرتے ہیں۔ یہی عمل صوبے، اضلاع ، تحصیل اور یونین کونسل میں ہوتا ہے اور ہر سطح کی قیادت منتخب ہو کر سامنے آتی ہے۔ مرکزی امارت سمیت ہر سطح کے انتخاب میں 3 نام معلوم ہوتےہیں، متعلقہ شوری ان ناموں کو تجویر کرتی ہے۔ مگر کوئی رکن ان تین کے علاوہ بھی کسی رکن جماعت کو ووٹ دینا چاہے تو دے سکتا ہے۔ دستور اس کی اجازت دیتا ہے۔ اس طرح ہر رکن ایک لحاظ سے امیر بننے کا اہل ہے اور اسے ووٹ دیا جا سکتا ہے۔ ایک جماعت کیا، اس کی قائم کردہ ہر برادر تنظیم میں یہ عمل ہوتا ہے؟ طلبہ تک اپنی قیادت کا انتخاب خود کرتے ہیں، اور اس میں کسی قسم کی کوئی مداخلت نہیں ہوتی۔ کیا کسی ایک بھی دوسری جماعت میں ایسا انتخابی نظام اور کوئی ایسی مثال موجود ہے اور کوئی خاندان کے خلاف جرات کا ارتکاب کر دے تو اس پارٹی میں رہ سکتا ہے؟ اور کیا اتنے بڑے صحافی اس حقیقت سے بےخبر ہیں؟ ایک اور امتیازی وصف اس نظام کا یہ ہے کہ تمام امرا کی مدت مقرر ہے، امیر جماعت 5 سال ، امیر صوبہ 3 سال اور امیر ضلع 2 سال، اس میں پھر امیر صوبہ اور امیر ضلع کے لیے قید ہے کہ وہ دو دفعہ سے زیادہ منتخب نہیں کی جا سکتے ؟ کیا یہ پابندی کسی دوسری جماعت میں موجود ہے؟</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: right;">
جماعت کے مقابل عوامی نیشنل پارٹی کی مثال دی گئی اور کہا یہ گیا کہ جماعت سے تو زیادہ اس میں جمہوریت ہے۔ سبحان اللہ کیا کہنے۔ مثال ہی اپنی حقیقت بیان کر رہی ہے۔ مزید اس پر کیا کہا جائے۔ باپ، بیٹا، بیوی اور پھر بیٹا، یہ ہے وہ مثال جسے جماعت اور اس کے شفاف نظام کے مقابلے میں پیش کیا گیا ہے۔ مرکز میں یہ حال ہے تو نچلی سطح پر جمہوریت کا کیا حال ہوگا؟ پھر یہ کہا گیا کہ کیا پلڈاٹ نے جماعت اسلامی کے انتخابی عمل کا جائزہ لیا ہے جو پہلے نمبر پر قرار دیا ہے؟ یہ اعتراض بھی تب ہو سکتا تھا جب دیگر 7 جماعتوں کے نظام کا جائزہ لیا جاتا اور جماعت اس جائزے میں رہ جاتی۔ ظاہر ہے کہ کسی پارٹی کے انتخابی عمل کا جائزہ نہیں لیا گیا کہ بیلٹ پیپر گنے جا رہے ہوں اور پلڈاٹ کے نمائندے وہاں موجود ہوں۔ پوائنٹس کے ایک نظام اور جائزے کے مطابق انھوں نے پوائنٹس دیے جس میں جماعت کو پہلے نمبر پر پایا۔ ویسے جماعت کے انتخابی نظام کا تو کسی وقت بھی جائزہ لیا جا سکتا ہے مگر مقابل جماعتوں میں تو سرے الیکشن ہی نہیں ہوتا تو کس چیز کا جائزہ لیں گے؟</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-align: right;">
جماعت سیاسی طور پرمقبول نہیں، اس میں دیگر ہزار خامیاں ہوسکتی ہیں، قیادت سے پالیسی تک کوئی بھی اعتراض وارد ہوسکتا ہے اور بہانے بہانے سے میڈیا میں کھلے طریقے سے اس کا اظہار بھی ہوتا ہے مگر کوئی خوبی نظر آئے اور پلڈاٹ جیسا معتبر ادارہ پیش کرے تو اسے بھی اپنی قلبی و ذہنی وابستگی اور نظریاتی مخالفت کو بالائے طاق رکھتے ہوئے کھلے دل سے تسلیم کرنا چاہیے۔ کوئی بڑا صحافی ہو تو یہ بات اور بھی <span style="line-height: 19.32px;">ضروری ہے، ساتھ میں غیرجانبداری پر اصرار ہو تو اور زیادہ ضروری۔</span></div>

ہماری حکومت بھی عوام کو ایسے ایسے خواب دکھاتی ہے کہ اگر اسکی
ہربات پر یقین کر لیا جائے تو محسوس ہو گا کہ پاکستان چند ہی دنوں میں جنت بن جائے
گا۔</div>
<br />
اب پنجاب حکومت کو ہی لیجئیے چودہ اگست کو ایوان اقبال میں ہونے والی ایک چکا
چوند تقریب میں خادم اعلیٰ نے صوبے میں سو فیصد خواندگی کا ہدف حاصل کرنے کے لیے
مہم کا آغاز کردیا۔واہ ! سننے میں تو یہ ایک ایسا منصوبہ ہے کہ حکومت کے نقاد بھی
اس کی مخالفت نہ کرپائے لیکن کوئی پوچھے یہ ہدف حاصل کیسے ہوگا۔<br />
اس گتھی کو سلجھانے میں تو شاید بہت وقت لگے لیکن حال ہی میں ضلع گجرات کی یونین
کونسل ماچھی وال کے گاؤں چھوکر میں ایک ایسا واقعہ پیش آیا جس سے لگتا ہے کہ حکومت
کی پالیسی کے باعث کم از کم بچیوں کی خواندگی میں تو کمی ہی آئے گی۔<br />
<br />
چھوکر میں لڑکے اور لڑکیوں کے دو پرائمری سکول تھے۔ حال ہی میں ریشنلائزیشن
پالیسی کے تحت یہاں دونوں سکولوں کو ضم کر دیا گیا۔ نتجہ یہ نکلا کہ والدین نے اپنی
بچیوں کو سکول بھیجنا ہی بند کردیا ہے۔<br />
محمد عباس چھوکر کے رہائشی ہیں ان کی سائیکلوں کو پنکچر لگانے کی دکان ہے۔ عباس
کہتے ہیں کہ’ آپ کو پتہ ہے آج کل ماحول کیسا ہے۔ اب انھوں نے بچیوں اور لڑکوں کا
ایک ہی سکول کردیا ہے اور یہ ہم برداشت نہیں کرتے۔ اس لیے میں تو بچیوں کو سرکاری
سکول نہیں بھیج رہا۔ دو بچیوں کو پرائیویٹ سکول داخل کروایا ہے۔ اس سے زیادہ خرچہ
اٹھانے کی ہمت نہیں، اس لیے دو بچیاں مدرسے میں ڈال دی ہیں۔‘<br />
<br />
حکومت کے نزدیک تو ریشنلائزیشن پالیسی وسائل کے بہتر استعمال کا نام ہے۔ پنجاب
کے وزیرِتعلیم رانا مشہود احمد خان کہتے ہیں۔<br />
<br />
’ایک پرائمری سکول پر حکومت کا بہت زیادہ خرچہ ہوتاہے۔ ایک ہیڈ ماسٹر کو ستر سے
اسی ہزار روپے تنخواہ دی جارہی ہے اور کم سے کم ایک سکول کو چلانے کے لیے حکومت کو
ماہانہ چار پانچ لاکھ روپے خرچ کرنا پڑتے ہیں تو اگر کسی علاقے میں بچوں کی تعداد
ہی کم ہے تو اس کے بارے میں فیصلہ ہوا کہ وہاں اساتذہ، سکولوں اور وسائل کو اکٹھا
کردیا جائے۔‘<br />
<br />
اکنامک سروے آف پاکستان کے مطابق ریشنلائزیشن پالیسی کے تحت پاکستان میں سنہ
2006 سے 2012 کے درمیان پرائمری سکولوں کی تعداد میں تقریباً پانچ ہزار تک کی کمی
کی گئی۔<br />
<br />
چھوکر کے نمبردار غلام رسول کے مطابق گاؤں میں لڑکے اور لڑکیوں کے الگ الگ سکول
ایک عرصے سے موجود تھے اور لوگ بہت شوق سے اپنی بچیوں کو تعلیم حاصل کرنے کے لیے
پرائمری سکول بھیجتے تھے تاہم مخلوط تعلیم مقامی لوگوں کے لیے قابل قبول نہیں۔<br />
’ہمارے گاؤں میں بچیوں کے سکول کی عمارت بھی موجود ہے اور لڑکوں کے سکول کی بھی۔
ہمیں سمجھ نہیں آتا کہ ان سکولوں کو ضم کیوں کیا گیا۔ ہمارے گاؤں کا ماحول بہت
مذہبی ہے۔ اس لیے لوگ اس بات پر آمادہ نہیں کہ پرائمری سطح پر بھی اپنی لڑکیوں کو
لڑکوں کے ساتھ پڑھائیں۔ اس وجہ سے کچھ لوگوں نے تو بچیاں سکول سے اٹھا لیں ہیں اور
کچھ اٹھانا چاہتے ہیں۔‘<br />
<br />
چھوکر کے رہائشیوں کے مطابق یہاں ایک سو تیس بچیاں پرائمری سکول میں زیرِتعلیم
تھیں۔ گجرات کی ڈی سی او آصف لودھی کا کہنا ہے کہ کچھ والدین کی جانب سے مخلوط
تعلیم پر اعتراضات سامنے آئے ہیں۔<br />
<br />
’ ایسے چند واقعات ہمارے نوٹس میں آئے ہیں اور ہم انھیں سلجھانے کی کوشیش کر رہے
ہیں۔ کچھ والدین نے ہم سے رابطہ بھی کیا ہے ۔ تعلیمی اعتبار سے گجرات میں لوگوں کا
رویہ بہت بہتر ہے۔فی الحال یہ اتنا سنگین مسئلہ نہیں ہے۔ ہم نے محکمہ تعلیم کے ساتھ
بھی یہ معاملہ اٹھایا ہے کیونکہ تعلیمی پالیسی ضلعی حکومت کے دائرہ اختیار سے باہر
ہے۔‘<br />
<br />
خواتین کی تعلیم پاکستان میں ایک حساس معاملہ ہے۔ صرف انتہا پسندوں کے حملے ہی
نہیں بلکہ کبھی کبھی تو سماجی رکاوٹیں اور معاشرتی مسائل بھی خواتین کو تعلیم کے حق
سے محروم کردیتی ہیں۔<br />
<br />
سکولوں کے ادغام سے صرف مخلوط تعلیم کا مسئلہ ہی پیدا نہیں ہوا بلکہ کئی علاقوں
میں بچیوں کے گھروں سے سکولوں کا فاصلہ بھی بڑھ گیا ہے۔<br />
<br />
حال ہی میں یونیسکو ادارہ برائے شماریات کی جانب سے شائع کی گئی رپورٹ کے مطابق
سنہ 2005 سے 2009 کے دوران پاکستان میں ناخواندہ بچیوں کی تعداد میں 10 لاکھ کا
اضافہ ہوا۔<br />
<br />
پنجاب حکومت نے سو فیصد خواندگی کے لیے صوبے میں مہم کا آغاز تو کردیا ہے تاہم
ریشنلائزیشن کے نام پر سکولوں کی تعداد میں کمی سے بچیوں کی شرح خواندگی میں اضافہ
تو نہیں کمی ہوتی ہی دکھائی دے رہی ہے۔Everything Smarthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09025218215719647945noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7853399296422064714.post-91197727470577962942013-09-18T05:20:00.000-07:002013-09-18T05:20:32.347-07:00VC Punjab Mujahid Kamran University Scandal with Student Girls<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">A billboard depicting Altaf Hussain at the headquarters of his political party in Karachi<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: small;">LONDON — For two decades, Altaf Hussain has run his brutal Pakistani political empire by remote control, shrouded in luxurious exile in London and long beyond the reach of the law.</span></strong><br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-size: small;">He follows events through satellite televisions in his walled-off home, manages millions of dollars in assets and issues decrees in ranting teleconferences that last for hours — all to command a network of influence and intimidation that stretches from North America to South Africa. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">This global system serves a very localized goal: perpetuating Mr. Hussain’s reign as the political king of Karachi, the brooding port city of 20 million people at the heart of Pakistan’s economy. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">“Distance does not matter,” reads the inscription on a monument near Mr. Hussain’s deserted former house in Karachi, where his name evokes both fear and favor. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Now, though, his painstakingly constructed web is fraying. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">A British murder investigation has been closing in on Mr. Hussain, 59, and his party, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement. His London home and offices have been raided, and the police have opened new investigations into accusations of money laundering and inciting violence in Pakistan. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">The scrutiny has visibly rattled Mr. Hussain, who recently warned supporters that his arrest may be imminent. And in Karachi, it has raised a previously unthinkable question: Is the end near for the untouchable political machine that has been the city’s linchpin for three decades? </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">“This is a major crisis,” said Irfan Husain, the author of “Fatal Faultlines,” a book about Pakistan’s relationship with the United States. “The party has been weakened, and Altaf Hussain is being criticized like never before.” </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Mr. Hussain’s rise offers a striking illustration of the political melee in Pakistan. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">His support stems from the Mohajirs, Urdu-speaking Muslims whose families moved to Pakistan after the partition from India in 1947, and who make up about half of Karachi’s population. Since the 1980s, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement has fiercely defended Mohajir interests, and in turn it has been carried to victory in almost every election and to an enduring place in national coalition governments as well. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Mr. Hussain fled to London in 1992, when the movement was engaged in a vicious street battle with the central government for supremacy in Karachi. The British government granted him political asylum and, 10 years later, a British passport. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">London has long been the antechamber of Pakistani politics, where self-exiled leaders take refuge until they can return. The former military ruler Pervez Musharraf lived here until recently, and the current prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, lived here until 2007. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Mr. Hussain, however, shows no sign of going back. The Muttahida Qaumi Movement has an office in Edgware, in northwest London. But these days Mr. Hussain is mostly at home, in a redbrick suburban house protected by raised walls, security cameras and a contingent of former British soldiers he has hired as bodyguards. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">From there, he holds court, addressing his faraway followers in a </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0vkvvnC6l0" title="YouTube article"><span style="font-size: small;">vigorous, sometimes maniacal style</span></a><span style="font-size: small;">, punctuated by jabbing gestures and hectoring outbursts. Occasionally </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqQOqtYSefw" title="YouTube video"><span style="font-size: small;">he bursts into song</span></a><span style="font-size: small;">, or tears. Yet, on the other end of the line, it is not unusual to find tens of thousands of people crowded into a Karachi street, </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCX_wftl2Uc" title="YouTube article"><span style="font-size: small;">listening raptly</span></a><span style="font-size: small;"> before an empty stage containing Mr. Hussain’s portrait, as his disembodied voice booms from speakers. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">“The cult of personality surrounding Altaf Hussain is quite extraordinary,” said Farzana Shaikh, an academic and the author of “Making Sense of Pakistan.” “He is immensely charismatic, in the way one thinks of the great fascist leaders of the 20th century.” </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">In Karachi, his overwhelmingly middle-class party is fronted by sharply dressed, well-spoken men — and a good number of women — and it has won a reputation for efficient city administration. But beneath the surface, its mandate is backed by armed gangs involved in racketeering, abduction and the targeted killings of ethnic and political rivals, the police and diplomats say. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Other major Pakistani parties indulge in similar behavior, but the Muttahida Qaumi Movement frequently brings the most muscle to the fight. An American diplomatic cable from 2008 titled “Gangs of Karachi,” which was published by WikiLeaks, </span><a href="http://tacstrat.com/content/index.php/2011/09/07/wikileaks-on-karachi-gang-wars/"><span style="font-size: small;">cited estimates</span></a><span style="font-size: small;"> that the party had an active militia of 10,000 gunmen, with an additional 25,000 in reserve — a larger force, the dispatch notes, than the city police. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Many journalists who have criticized the party have been beaten, or worse, driving most of the news media in Karachi to tread lightly. In June, the Committee to Protect Journalists, a lobbying group based in New York, accused the party of organizing the killing of Wali Khan Babar, a television reporter</span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">In the West, the party has avoided critical attention partly because it has cast itself as an enemy of Islamist militancy. In 2001, Mr. Hussain wrote a letter to Prime Minister Tony Blair of Britain, offering to help Britain set up a spy network against the Taliban. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Critics of the party have frequently questioned the role of British officials in facilitating its unusual system of governance. Pakistani exiles from Baluchistan, also accused of fomenting violence, have faced criminal prosecution. But Britain is not the only node of Mr. Hussain’s international support network. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Through the Pakistani diaspora, the Muttahida Qaumi Movement has active branches as far afield as the United States, Canada and even South Africa, which has become an important financial hub and a haven for the group’s enforcers, Pakistani investigators say. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Two police interrogation reports obtained by The New York Times cite militants from the movement who say they traveled to South Africa in between carrying out political assassinations in Karachi. One of those men, Teddy Qamar, confessed to 58 killings between 2006 and 2012, the police say. In an interview, Anis Hasan, the party’s joint organizer for South Africa, denied any link to organized violence. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">But if Mr. Hussain seemed immune to scrutiny at his London stronghold, his luck started to turn in September 2010 after Imran Farooq, a once-influential leader in the movement who had split from the party, </span><a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/the-murder-in-suburbia-that-sent-shockwaves-across-the-world-2082697.html" title="Article in The Independent"><span style="font-size: small;">was stabbed to death</span></a><span style="font-size: small;"> near his house in Edgware. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Soon after, Mr. Hussain appeared on television, </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wk7yTeKW230" title="YouTube video"><span style="font-size: small;">mourning Mr. Farooq</span></a><span style="font-size: small;"> with a flood of tears. But over the past year, the police investigation has turned sharply in his direction. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">In December, officers from Scotland Yard’s Counter Terrorism Command searched the movement’s London office. Then in June they went to Mr. Hussain’s home and arrested Ishtiaq Hussain, his cousin and personal assistant, who is now out on bail. The police impounded $600,000 in cash and some jewelry under laws that target the proceeds of crime. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Mr. Hussain was not available for an interview, his party said. But a senior party official, Nadeem Nusrat, speaking at the movement’s London office, denied any link to Mr. Farooq’s killing. “Our conscience is clear,” Mr. Nusrat said. “We have nothing to do with it.” </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Mr. Nusrat said the impounded money had come from political donations. And he rejected accusations, also the subject of a police inquiry, that Mr. Hussain has directly threatened political rivals, in some instances by warning that he would arrange for their “body bags.” </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">“It’s all taken out of context,” Mr. Nusrat said. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Mr. Hussain has receded from public view during the recent furor. There have been rumors about mounting health problems, which Mr. Hussain’s aides deny. But he cannot return to Pakistan, they say, because the Taliban could kill him. “In Pakistan,” said Muhammad Anwar, a longtime aide, “nobody can guarantee your life.” </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Then there are the legal threats: over the years, dozens of murder charges have been lodged against Mr. Hussain in Pakistan, although some have been quashed in court. A more pressing question, perhaps, concerns the impact on the streets of Karachi if Mr. Hussain is forced to step down. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Some fear that without his guiding hand, tensions within the movement could split it into hostile factions — a frightening prospect in a city where political violence already claims hundreds of lives a year. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">“However viciously the party conducts itself, there is an order within the apparent disorder,” said Ms. Shaikh, the academic. </span></div>
<div align="justify" itemprop="articleBody">
<span style="font-size: small;">Even if the British government wished to crack down on Mr. Hussain, she added, it might find itself subject to appeals from the Pakistani authorities. “The fear of Karachi going up in flames is so great,” Ms. Shaikh said, “that no government can take that risk, as long as Altaf Hussain is alive.”</span> </div>

<strong>PESHAWAR: A month-long cleanliness drive formally initiated by Ji's Minister for Local Government and Rural Development Inayatullah Khan in Gor Gathri commenced in the district from Wednesday.</strong><br />
Workers of the Peshawar Municipal Corporation (PMC) were seen removing sludge from drains and canals while bus stands, markets, offices, school premises and construction sites were also being cleaned.<br />

The government has appropriated Rs1.5 million for the city’s uplift, out of which Rs1 million will be spent on the cleanliness campaign. The Peshawar Development Authority (PDA), PMC and other organizations have been instructed to play their due role and facilitate the process of keeping the city clean.<br />
“We will make Peshawar the city of roses,” promised Jamat e Islami's Inayatullah the Minister of PTI led Govt of KPK while addressing PMC workers. “Today is the beginning of changing the city, which has been ignored for decades by rulers.” PDA was also directed to ensure greenery in the city.<br />
Inayatullah said the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) government will implement the drive in all towns of the city, adding they will try to promote healthy competition between municipal committees. Those who surpass others will be awarded, while those who show negligence will be brought to task, he added.<br />
Funds have been set aside for an awareness media campaign on cleanliness. Billboards are being used for the purpose and many are already sporting messages displayed across the city.<br />
“The government efforts will prove meaningless if residents and traders do not support us,” stressed the minister. “It is not only immoral, but also against the law to spoil and litter public places. If necessary, the police will be used against citizens found guilty of littering or encroachments in public places.”Everything Smarthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09025218215719647945noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7853399296422064714.post-69876887096483482172013-09-10T06:34:00.002-07:002013-09-10T06:34:40.527-07:00Next Android mobile software version dubbed 'KitKat' <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>SAN FRANCISCO: Google on Tuesday said the next version of Android will be called "KitKat" in keeping with its penchant for giving tasty names to its software for powering mobile devices.</b><br />
<br />
"Since these devices make our lives so sweet, each Android version is named after a dessert," the California-based technology titan said in a blog.<br />
<br />
"As everyone finds it difficult to stay away from chocolate we decided to name the next version of Android after one of our favorite chocolate treats."<br />
<br />
The list of Android software names over the years includes Cupcake, Donut, Ice Cream Sandwich, and Jelly Bean.<br />
<br />
In a promotion deal, Google is enticing people with chances to win Android-powered Nexus 7 tablets or credit at its online Play shop by buying KitKat candy bars featuring Android robot icons on wrappers.<br />
<br />
Android software powers more than a billion smartphones or tablets worldwide, according to Google.<br />
<br />
Smartphones powered by Google's Android software increased their global market share as iPhones lost ground in the absence of new models being unleashed by Apple, the International Data Corporation reported last month.<br />
<br />
Android's share of the smartphone market grew to 79.3 percent in the second quarter while that of iPhone slipped to 13.2 percent from 16.6 percent in the same three-month period last year, according to IDC figures.<br />
<br />
Apple is "well positioned" to recapture market share with the release later this year of a new iPhone and the next-generation iOS mobile operating system, according to IDC mobile phone research team manager Ramon Llamas.<br />

Apple on Tuesday sent out invitations to a September 10 event at its California headquarters where new iPhones models were expected to be unveiled.Everything Smarthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09025218215719647945noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7853399296422064714.post-33496642783145596512013-09-10T06:31:00.003-07:002013-09-10T06:31:47.333-07:00Karachi: Several held in police, rangers operation <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Apple is holding a special event today in the US but is keeping the purpose of it a top-secret - which only fuels fan speculation.<br />
It has been <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/iphone%20rumours">widely-rumoured online</a> that the event will see the launch of a higher-end new phone, probably <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/iphone%205s" target="_blank">named the iPhone 5S</a>.<br />
<a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/technology-science/technology/iphone-5s-leaked-pictures-show-2261192" target="_blank">Speculation and leaked images also suggest it will have a fingerprint scanner</a>, but it is also expected to have several other <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/iphone%20rumours" target="_blank">exciting tweaks</a>.<br />
Nobody outside of <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/apple" target="_blank">the Apple circle</a> knows for sure what will come out of the conference, but the company released a teaser invite last week as it hopes to go two steps ahead of <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/smartphones" target="_blank">its rivals</a>.<br />
As you can see above, it cryptically stated 'This should brighten everyone's day' and showed several different coloured circles blended into the background.<br />
So what does this mean, when is the announcement and what can we expect from it?<br />
We have all the details you need to know...<br />
<strong>What time is the announcement?</strong><br />
The announcement is scheduled for 10am Pacific time or more importantly 6pm UK time.<br />
<strong>Where is it happening?</strong><br />
It has been scheduled to take place at the Apple Campus in Cupertino, California, today - the eyes of the world's media are patiently watching and waiting.<br />
<strong>Can I watch it live?</strong><br />
You can keep up-to-date with all the latest news, pictures and reveals by watching our Mirror live blog nearer the time. There will also be a live stream where you can watch the announcements in real time.<br />
<strong>What does the invitation tell us?</strong><br />
Coloured circles and the phrase 'this should brighten everyone's day' clearly suggests <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/iphone">the next set of iPhones</a> will be given not only a digital makeover but an image revamp.<br />
iPhones have traditionally been black and then more recently white. Whether this change will be the primary colours in the invitation we are yet to find out - but rumours <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/technology-science/technology/iphone-5c-plastic-handsets-leaked-2245275" target="_blank">suggest so</a>.<br />
<strong>What are we expecting to be announced?</strong><br />
Many believe the main reveals will be the iPhone 5S - a slightly more upmarket and improved version of the iPhone 5. Rumours again are that it will come in new colours. There has also been suggestions that <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/iphone%205c">a cheaper version</a> will be announced, known as the iPhone 5C.<br />
The iPhone 5S is expected to feature a fingerprint scanner along with several improvements that have not yet been leaked.<br />
There could be more information on the new iOS7, which is scheduled for Autumn and will be a 'new chapter' for iOS. The software is expected to be primarily focused on phones with bigger screens, which leads us to <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/iphone%206">the iPhone 6</a>.<br />
The Wall Street Journal said Apple are "testing phone devices with screens ranging from 4.8in to 6in" - rumours already suggest this could be the iPhone 6 but it is not expected to yet be revealed this early.<br />
It is unlikely (but not impossible) that there will be <a href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/ipad">a new iPad</a> released.<br />
But things have been quiet on the iPod front so it wouldn't come as a surprise if there was a new MP3 player introduced at some point.<br />

<strong>Apple will launch two new products on September 10</strong><br />
<strong></strong><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OnM0NnFrlh4/Ui7WfmHFoBI/AAAAAAAAAa4/fDuTNG0aUwo/s1600/603139233.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OnM0NnFrlh4/Ui7WfmHFoBI/AAAAAAAAAa4/fDuTNG0aUwo/s1600/603139233.jpg" height="400" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The countdown to one of the biggest product launches of the year has begun.<br />
Tomorrow, Apple will announce two new devices the iPhone5S or iPhone 6, and a budget iPhone that is being labelled the ‘iPhone mini’ or could even be called the iPhone C.<br />
The website makes specific mention of the round circle around the home button and points out that it is the fingerprint recognition technology.<br />
The frenzy has already started.<br />
9to5 mac has published leaked images of an iPhone5S packaging. The images were originally uploaded by a Chinese blog <a href="http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ctechcn.com%2Fiphone5s-case-leak%2F">Ctechcn.com</a>.<br /><br /> There are reports of fans already queuing up in front of stores in the US in an effort to ensure that they are the first to buy the latest iPhone when it is released, although Apple is yet to announce when the device will go on sale.<br />
Meanwhile, there has been almost near-unanimity among industry experts as to what Apple will announce tomorrow, September 10.<br />
<strong>iOS7</strong><br />
To begin with, Apple for sure will announce its improvised OS the iOS7 that boasts a much cleaner and simpler design.<br />
Several, or most of the icons have been redesigned and a beta version was showcased during the Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco.<br />
Fans are expecting that the new OS will be ready for use in all three formats, iPhone, iPad and iPod.<br />
New iOS 7 software will debut with a free iTunes Radio Service featuring more than 200 stations "and an incredible catalog of music from the iTunes Store," Apple announced earlier this year.<br />
The service will be integrated with Apple's personal voice-assistant software program Siri, so users will be able to find out "who plays that song?"<br />
The streaming radio service is part of what Apple chief Tim Cook branded the biggest change to iOS -- Apple's mobile operating system -- since the introduction of the iPhone in 2007.<br />
<strong>iMini</strong><br />
There is definitely going to be two new devices that will be announced. Apart from the iPhone5S, Apple has been working towards building a mini or budget iPhone.<br />
It has been more or less confirmed that the iPhone 5C, as it could be finally called, will have a plastic build, a four-inch screen and A6 processor.<br />
<strong>Screen size</strong><br />
Meanwhile, there has been immense pressure on Apple to increase the screen size of its next flagship model.<br />
While Android and Windows counterparts are constantly upgrading products with a five+ inch screen, Apple has continued to limit its screen size to 4 inches.<br />
Although some reports suggest that the new model will have a 5-inch screen, several leaks have claimed that Apple could continue with a 4-inch display.<br />
The new phone will have a similar look and feel of the iPhone5.<br />
<strong>Finger print scanner</strong><br />
A fingerprint scanner has been expected in Apple devices since Apple acquired AuthenTec - a Florida-based firm specialising in mobile and network security.<br />
It is now more or less confirmed that Apple plans to use scratch-proof sapphire crystal for the iPhone 5S’s home button that will also be capable as acting as fingerprint sensors.<br />
<strong>Camera</strong><br />
Another significant improvement that we are expecting to witness in the new device is in the camera.<br />
Will Apple follow Samsung and HTC and opt for a 13 MP camera or retain its 8MP in the new device?<br />
Various leaks have also pointed towards a new slow motion camera, thanks to a new feature called ‘Mogul’ that enables video recording at 120 frames per second.<br />
The crucial question that's on every one’s mind is how much Apple could price its iPhone 5C for. Some rumours suggest Apple could price it between Dh1,000 and Dh1,500, making it attractive enough for a first time user to latch on to Apple`s new budget phone.<br />
<strong><span style="font-size: x-small;">No iWatch or iTV</span></strong><br />
Analysts did not foresee any talk of Apple watches or TV at the Tuesday event.<br />
"I don't think these are things that Apple wants to get into at this point," Gartner analyst Ken Dulaney said of persistent rumors of an "iWatch" or revolutionary advancement in Apple TV set-top boxes.<br />
The smartphone market is now dominated by Android devices, with roughly three-fourths of all handsets, but a forecast by research firm IDC suggested Apple will increase its share this year to 17.9 percent from 16.9 percent.<br />
Cantor Fitzgerald expressed optimism that Apple would enter new product categories in the coming 18 months.<br />
Cantor noted that it was six years after the iPod launched in 2001 that the iPhone made its debut, and another three years before the iPad arrived.<br />
"As such, if Apple were to introduce 'iTV' or 'iWatch' over the next year, this would be slightly ahead of historical cycles," Cantor reasoned. "Clearly, we believe Apple's innovation engine remains in full force."<br /> <br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><strong>iChina</strong></span><br />
Apple has also invited press to a Wednesday event in Beijing that analysts believe signals a deal to add iPhones to China Mobile's massive telecom network in that country.<br />
China Mobile has more than 700 million subscribers, according to Barclays Equity Research.<br />
"The only real potential to surprise investors seems to be in the scope and velocity of a new China strategy and any new features within iOS 7 and fingerprint scanner technology," Barclay's said in a note focused on what is expected from Apple..<br />
Apple's iPhone franchise has historically focused on premium products at premium prices, essentially leaving the company "unable to address" approximately 60 per cent of the opportunity in the smartphone market, the investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald said in an analyst note.<br />
"We expect this to change with the introduction of the plastic-encased iPhone 5C," Cantor Fitzgerald said.</div>

Latest buzz claims Apple Cupertino-based firm is already working on a phablet-sized device<br />
In less than 24 hours Apple is set to announce two new smartphones, including a budget version of its iPhone.<br />
A series of almost credible leaks have already given the world an idea of what to expect at tonight’s announcement – with a fingerprint sensor embedded into the home button being the key upgrade in the latest edition of the iPhone.<br />
However, according to the latest buzz on the internet, Apple is to come out with models with various screen sizes and the Cupertino-based firm is already working on a phablet-sized device.<br />
According to a report in <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324577304579057262388733816.html?mod=WSJ_hppMIDDLENexttoWhatsNewsSecond" target="_blank">The Wall Street Journal</a>, the company is evaluating a plan to offer iPhones with screens ranging from 4.8 inches to as big as 6 inches.<br />
Quoting people familiar with the matter and with inputs from component suppliers the report adds that tests are already underway for a 4.8-inch screen.<br />
This set the rumour mill going and tech blogs and sites were soon abuzz with rumours that Apple might even launch tonight’s iPhone 5S (or 6) with a 4.8 inch screen.<br />
It took Apple several years of deliberations to finally come out with a smaller form of its popular iPad.<br />
Amid intense competition and growing popularity of Samsung Galaxy series of Tabs which range from 7-inch to 8.9-inch, Apple in 2012 launched its 7.9-inch iPad mini.<br />
The iPad mini was a major success and today, sells more than the traditional iPad.<br />
<strong>New, new, new</strong><br />
Forrester analyst Charles Golvin told AFP the consensus is for Apple to unveil a new high-end phone, "most likely called the 5S, with the same look and feel physically but with a speed boost; new processor, and new graphics capabilities".<br />
A lower-cost iPhone has been dubbed the 5C, "because it would come in multiple colors analogous to today's iPod touch", Golvin said.<br />
Speculation about the iPhone 5S included the debut of gold colour and fingerprint recognition for enhanced security.<br />
"For most part, we view the iPhone5S as an evolution of the iPhone5 and as such do not view it as especially innovative," Citi Research said in a note to investors on Monday.<br />
"However, with the inclusion of a fingerprint reader, Apple opens itself up to new opportunities, most notably mobile payments."<br />
At the heart of any iPhone announcements on Tuesday would be a dramatic overhaul to the iOS software powering Apple handsets.<br />
New iOS 7 software will debut with a free iTunes Radio Service featuring more than 200 stations "and an incredible catalog of music from the iTunes Store," Apple announced earlier this year.<br />
The streaming radio service is part of what Apple chief Tim Cook branded the biggest change to iOS - Apple's mobile operating system - since the introduction of the iPhone in 2007.<br />
<strong>Price war</strong><br />
Analysts believe a special event at Apple's headquarters in Silicon Valley will spotlight a more economical iPhone priced to compete in emerging markets where money is tight, along with a beefed-up top-end model.<br />
"The key challenge for Apple this week is to demonstrate that it can maintain momentum in overall iPhone sales, and to do so in a way which won't drive down margins significantly," said Ovum chief telecoms analyst Jan Dawson.<br />
"It's key for Apple to be able to find ways to drive growth at a higher rate again, and getting China's biggest carrier on board and launching a cheaper version of the iPhone are both key to doing that."<br />
<strong>Wall Street darling</strong><br />
Apple became a Wall Street darling by pairing blistering sales of culture-changing gadgets such as iPods, iPhones, and iPads with enviable "margins," the difference between cost and price.<br />
Apple shares were up nearly two per cent to $506.17 at the close of the trading day on the Nasdaq exchange.<br />
Apple has also invited press to a Wednesday event in Beijing that analysts believe signals a deal to add iPhones to China Mobile's massive telecom network in that country.<br />
The smartphone market is now dominated by Android devices, with roughly three-fourths of all handsets, but a forecast by research firm IDC suggested Apple will increase its share this year to 17.9 per cent from 16.9 per cent.<br />
It remained unknown how low a price Apple would be able to hit with the 5C.<br />
Gartner estimates that mobile phones priced $300 or more accounted for only 13.7 per cent of overall phone sales last year, according to Citi.<br />
Analysts were keenly focused on the promise of a 5C to win over buyers in China and other developing markets, where there is fierce competition from low-priced smartphones powered by Google's Android operating system.<br />
FBN Securities on Monday predicted that launching two new iPhones would reverse gains made by Android-powered rivals in the market</div>

Check it out here<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<br />
Samsung has announced the Note 3 and the phablet could well outdo the sales of Galaxy S4 or any other Samsung phone in the market.<br />
The phone features 5.7 inch display, a size that is increasingly gaining popularity as the accepted form for a large sized phablet and best suited to be used with the just announced smart watch Samsung Gear.<br />
The phone is powered by 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 processor, 3GB RAM and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.<br />
Expect the phone to be priced around Dh2,500 and it should launch in the UAE by the end of September. In fact Samsung has announced that the device will launch on September 25th in more than 140 countries.<br />

The S Pen has been significantly improved to unlock several features within the smartphone to enhance the note taking experience.<br />
According to Samsung a simple click of the S Pen button while hovering over the screen introduces users to Air Command, a palette of five powerful features that truly make tasks easier and faster.<br />
What’s Air Command?<br />
The Air Command feature provides access to the a range of features such as:<br />
· Action Memo that allows users to handwrite a note, and automatically execute a function or convert that handwritten information into formatted content. Action Memo can instantly initiate a call, add to contacts, look up an address on a map, search the web, save a task to a to-do list, and more<br />
· Scrapbook enables users to organize or track down content and information from various sources including the web, YouTube and Gallery in one place so that users can easily look back at collected content all at once. When consumers save content for future use, Scrapbook also collects source material or URLs allowing them to easily refer back to the original source.<br />
· The Screen Write feature captures the full screen image of the current page on the device and allows users to write comments or additional information onto the captured image.<br />
· S Finder allows users to expansively search for content on their device regardless of the type. By putting in keywords or filters such as date, location, and content type, users can search related documents, events, communication threads, and even the Help page – all in one place. In addition, users can also search for hand-written content in their Notes and memo applications, as well as symbols and formulas.<br />
· Pen Window allows users to use the S Pen not only for drawing sketches or writing notes, but now also for opening a small application window for a true multitasking experience. Simply by drawing a window of any size, anywhere on the screen, users can easily and quickly open another application window such as YouTube, calculator or Browser without pausing current activity on the screen.<br />
The Galaxy Note 3 has a full HD Super Amoled display and is slimmer (8.3mm) and lighter (168g) with a more powerful (3,200mAh) battery.<br />
The camera is similar to the one found on the S4 with a 13 megapixel rear camera with Smart Stabilization and high CRI LED flash.<br />
What’s more Samsung has improvised the design element by adding a soft and textured-touch back cover.<br />
The phone will be available in Jet Black, Classic White and Blush Pink.<br />
What’s more the My Magazine feature enables customization of news content, social media and other feeds through Flipboard.<br />
JK Shin, CEO and President of IT & Mobile Division at Samsung Electronics, maiking the announcement said “Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is a powerful, original approach that enables users to tell the stories of their lives through dynamic and seamless expressions of their passions across work, play and life experiences.”<br />
Samsung also says the new Note 3 features a multi window that enables users to toggle seamlessly between applications without closing the window or opening a new page<br />
Users can also run one application in two windows at the same time.<br />
“For instance, users can read the news in one browser while conducting a web search in another, or send an instant message through ChatON to a friend while reading a message from another friend,” Samsung’s introduction said.<br />
There is also an improvement to group Play that was introduced along with the S4. Group Play allows users to play the same music, to play games together, and to share documents. It now enables consumers to share videos and play content together with their friends simultaneously. Users can also connect up to five devices alongside each other to create a "big screen" viewing experience.<br />

<br />
شمالی وزیرستان میں مقامی انتظامیہ کے ایک اہلکار نے میڈیا کو بتایا کہ ڈرون
حملہ سنیچر کو شمالی وزیرستان کی تحصیل میر علی کے علاقے مسوکئی میں ہوا۔<br />
<br />
حکام کے مطابق ایک مدرسے پر ڈرون سے دو میزائل فائر کیے گئے جس میں تین افراد
ہلاک جبکہ دو افراد زخمی ہوئے ہیں۔<br />
<br />
حکام کے مطابق ہلاک ہونے والے تینوں افراد غیر ملکی تھے تاہم ابھی تک ان کی
شہریت کے بارے میں معلوم نہیں ہو سکا ہے۔<br />
<br />
یہ ڈرون حملہ ایک ایسے وقت پر ہوا ہے جب ملک کے ایک اعلیٰ سرکاری عہدیدار نے بی
بی سی کے ساتھ بات کرتے ہوئے حکومت اور پاکستانی طالبان کے درمیان مذاکرات کی تصدیق
کی تھی او کہا تھا کہ ’ان سے پہلے ہی فائدہ ہونا شروع ہوگیا ہے‘۔<br />
<br />
اہلکار کے مطابق رواں سال مئی میں امریکی ڈرون حملے میں کالعدم تحریک طالبان کے
دوسرے اعلیٰ رہنما مولوی ولی الرحمان کی ہلاکت سے مذاکراتی عمل کو جو نقصان پہنچا
تھا اس کا منفی اثر اب ذائل کر دیا گیا ہے۔ ’اس کے بعد کافی تگ و دو کے بعد مذاکرات
کے لیے رابطے دوبارہ بحال کر دیے گئے ہیں۔</div>

<br />
<strong>LAHORE: </strong><br />
<strong>The Punjab Assembly has taken up a bill to amend the police recruitment process and set up district-level, unified investigation offices.</strong><br />
A special committee presented its report on the Punjab Police Order Amendment Bill 2013 in the assembly after question hour on Wednesday.<br />
The opposition proposed four amendments to the bill, two of which were defeated and two put off till Thursday, when the house is also expected to approve the legislation.<br />
The amendment bill will allow the government to recruit some 600 sub inspectors (SIs) across the province through the Punjab Public Service Commission (PPSC). The bill aims to encourage the recruitment and promotion of educated youths and to improve the quality of criminal investigations.<br />
<strong>Recruitment</strong><br />
Under an amendment to Article 7 of the Police Order of 2002, the PPSC will be able to recruit policemen, other than to the ministerial and specialists cadres, in the rank of constable, SI and assistant superintendent of police (ASP). Earlier, direct recruitments could be made only up to the assistant sub inspector (ASI) and ASP ranks.<br />
The selection of constables will be made on the basis of district of domicile. The PPSC will recruit SIs to police regions which cover the candidates’ district of domicile and shall not exceed 50 per cent of the total SI posts. This would mean that, if Lahore say has 500 SIs, then the PPSC will recruit another 250.<br />
Under the amendment bill, 25 per cent of the quota reserved for departmental promotion to the rank of SI shall be filled through selection on merit by the PPSC from among head constables and ASIs who hold bachelor’s degrees. And 25 per cent of departmental promotions to ASI shall be decided by the PPSC from amongst constables and head constables who hold bachelor’s degrees.<br />
Law and Parliamentary Affairs Department Director Mohsin Abbas Syed told <em>The Express Tribune</em> that currently, 100 per cent of promotions from constable through to SHO are departmental promotions; the amendment bill would reduce this to 37.5 per cent. Fifty per cent of SIs would be recruited through the PPSC, 12.5 per cent through promotions decided by the PPSC, and the rest through promotions decided by the department itself. The amendment bill will also allow SIs to be appointed as station house officers.<br />
<b>Investigation </b><br />
The government also aims to separate the investigation functions of the police through the amendment bill. Currently, each police station has a separate investigation branch. The bill would set up a district investigation branch (DIB) in each district which would function independently of police stations. The DIB would have specialist investigators for each type of crime. Minor offences would be investigated by staff at police stations, but serious offences like murder, terrorism, sectarianism and armed robbery would be investigated by specialist investigators at the DIB. SHOs would be required to hand over such cases to the DIB after registering an FIR.<br />
The inspector general (IG) may notify which offences are to be investigated by officers at the police station and which by the DIB. Each branch will be headed by a superintendent of police (SP), except in the provincial capital, where it will be headed by a deputy inspector general (DIG). The head of the DIB shall be answerable to the district police officer (DPO).<br />
Except for the IG, no officer has the power to assign duty of DIB staff to officers of the operations wing. Earlier, the DPO concerned could change their duty from investigations to operations.<br />
Within seven working days of the filing of an application, the DPO may, after consulting the district standing board and explaining his reasons in writing, transfer the investigation of a case from one investigation officer to another officer or team of officers of an equal or higher rank. Similarly, the regional police officer may transfer a case after consulting the regional standing board, and the IG may transfer a case after consulting the standing review board.<br />
The opposition proposed two delaying amendments – for the bill to be circulated to elicit opinion, and for it to be sent to a select committee. Both were defeated. Two other amendments, proposing that the 25 per cent quota set by the bill for departmental promotion to SI and ASI be doubled to 50 per cent, are to be taken up today (Thursday), after the assembly session resumes.<br />
Speaker Rana Iqbal adjourned Wednesday’s session in the evening so members could attend a dinner in honour of 17 MPAs from Sindh. Law Minister Rana Sanaullah and opposition member Sibtain Khan welcomed the visiting MPAs to the house<br />
