  • Internet Censorship in Pakistan in February 2012, the Ministry of Information Technology Issued a Request for Tenders for a Nati
    Internet censorship in Pakistan In February 2012, the ministry of information technology issued a request for tenders for a national-level URL filtering system. The request, from the ministry’s Research and Development Fund, specified that the system must be capable of blocking websites at the domain and subdomain levels and of filtering specific files, file types and IP addresses. A petition by the digital rights organization Access called on providers of network filtering technology to state publicly that they would not tender for the contract. The petition won support among the main information technology companies, but five – the Chinese firms Huawei and ZTE, Blue Coat and McAfee based in the United States and Canada’s Netsweeper – refused to comment. Previously, the OpenNet Initiative (ONI), which monitors Internet filtering and surveillance, had found proof in the course of its research that blasphemous and anti- Islamic content was being filtered in Pakistan, as were sites promoting the rights of Baloch, Sindhi and Pashtun minorities (see the ONI report on Pakistan dated 6 August 2012). Blasphemous content has been posted on major sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube and the Pakistani authorities have on several occasions blocked the entire domains. Twitter and Facebook were eventually unblocked, but YouTube remains inaccessible. The authorities have also shut down all communication in the name of internal security. On Pakistan’s national day in 2012, the authorities cut cell phone communications in Balochistan for 14 hours. They were suspended again throughout the region several months later. In April 2012, a group of human rights activists filed a petition with the Sindh High Court contesting excessive website censorship by the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA).

SAMIA MANZOOR (Corresponding Author) Assistant Professor, Communication Studies Bahauddin Zaakariya University, Multan. Email: [email protected] NABILA SHAHID M.Phil Scholar, Communication Studies Bahauddin Zaakariya University, Multan. Abstract The core objective of the current research was to analyze recurrent frames used by Pakistani English language newspapers to present US during drone strikes. For this purpose Editorials of Dawn and The Nation published from 1st March 2011 till 31st March 2013 having terms "drone" "pilotless air craft" and “unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were analyzed. A census study of 168 editorials was conducted. Quantitative content analysis was used as the research design. Ten categories were constructed by conducting a rigorous literature review of the past research. The results depicted that Pakistani print media strongly criticized US on her polices of drone attacks in tribal area of Pakistan. Both selected newspapers gave 62.2% negative coverage to US on different issues but comparatively The Nation gave more negative coverage to US than Dawn. On the contrary 26.7% editorials had favorable, and 11.1% had neutral coverage. The results showed that although both newspapers have differing approach to cover the issue of drone Dawn and consider drone strikes against the sovereignty of Pakistan but The Nation showed a greater concern over drone strikes.

  • The Pakistan Federal Cabinet: More of the Same Or Something New?
    ISAS Insights No. 27 – Date: 11 April 2008 469A Bukit Timah Road #07-01, Tower Block, Singapore 259770 Tel: 6516 6179 / 6516 4239 Fax: 6776 7505 / 6314 5447 Email: [email protected] Website: www.isas.nus.edu.sg The Pakistan Federal Cabinet: More of the Same or Something New? Ishtiaq Ahmed1 The Islamic Republic of Pakistan is a federal, parliamentary democracy which exercises its authority within the limits imposed by Islamic injunctions. The Pakistan Constitution vests executive powers for the federation as a whole in the prime minister and his cabinet, but through a number of ordinances and amendments enacted during the dictatorships of General Zia-ul-Haq and General Pervez Musharraf, the president has been given extraordinary powers to dismiss the prime minister and to dissolve parliament in case he is convinced that the government is not functioning properly. It will be interesting to see if the newly-elected government will seek to change this situation in favour of a strong prime minister and make the presidency a titular office. The Pakistan Parliament is bicameral. It consists of an upper house, the Senate, elected by the provincial assemblies and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA), and a lower house, the National Assembly, elected directly by the citizens on the basis of universal adult franchise. After the recent elections in Pakistan on 18 February 2008, a coalition government comprising the two main winners the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), as well as the Awami Nationalist Party (ANP) Jamiyat Ulema-e- Islam-Fazlullah (JUI-F) and an independent member from FATA.

In the ongoing pattern of peace process, it is proposed that Pakistan should pave the way to bring the Taliban on negotiation table for peace and stability in Afghanistan. The recent steps taken in Key Words: the form of different Confidence Building Measures show Trust-deficit, flurry of diplomatic relationship in the emerging cordiality Peace Process, between the two countries. Diverse civil society groups of Pakistan are of the view that the drawdown of US forces Pakistan, from Afghanistan will ultimately create a power vacuum Afghanistan, and plunge the country again into yet another civil war. High Peace Pakistan’s efforts to use its influence to bring the Taliban Council, on table talk will smooth the way for peace, stability and Reconciliation prosperity of Afghanistan as well as security of the entire region. Keeping in view the geographical proximity of the two countries, Pakistan’s own vital interests are attached to peace and stability in Afghanistan. Pakistan took cognizance of this very fact and played highly constructive role in facilitating dialogue process in Afghanistan and improving bilateral ties of the two countries.

  • Constitutional History
    Page 1 of 11 CONSTITUTIONAL HISTORY (Application of laws framed by British Parliament to Pakistan) LECTURE DELIVERED ON 08.04.2013 BY SYED JAMSHED ALI, FORMER JUDGE SUPREME COURT OF PAKISTAN, DIRECTOR GENERAL OF THE PUNJAB JUDICIAL ACADEMY, TO DIRECTLY RECRIUTED ADDITIONAL DISTRICT & SESSION JUDGES. About forty nine years from today I joined the Chamber of my father Syed Mushtaq Ali, Advocate, at Multan after having been enrolled as a pleader of the subordinate courts, on 28.8.1964 as the practice then was in vogue. One question which immediately caught my attention was as to the authority under which the country was being governed also by the laws framed by the British Parliament and his reply brought out interesting events of history which I would like to share with you. Although, as a student of history, I had some idea of the Englishmen and other European companies growing their settlements in various parts of the world, Asia and Africa being of particular interest to the Europeans, yet I had no idea of the basis of application of the laws made by British Parliament to Pakistan. 2. It was under the Charter of 1600 that the East India Company was granted the monopoly for trading to and from India. Mughal Emperor Jahangir was then ruling the Sub-Continent. From 1600 to 1669 the Charters issued primarily related to the internal management of the Company and by way of Charter of 1669, the port and Island of Bombay were granted to East India Company with powers of Civil and Military Government.
