The SHC registrar had placed an official note before Chief Drought-Hit Areas Justice Faisal Arab along with media reports regarding non-provision of wheat and other relief The News, May 2, 2015 goods in drought-affected areas. Media reports said nearly 55,000 bags of wheat provided by the provincial government were still lying in warehouses and the delay was attributed to the availability of relief commissioner and revenue board member. The SHC chief justice ordered to convert the media reports into constitutional petitions and directed the provincial authorities concerned to file reports regarding the suspension of official food supply to the families affected by famine in Thar. They were also directed to file reports by May 4, explaining the wastage of official wheat and suspension of its further supply to affected parts of the deserted region. It is pertinent to mention that some constitutional petitions had already been filed to the SHC by different non-governmental organisations, seeking court’s directives for the provincial government to mitigate the situation where over 300 deaths reportedly took place due to hunger and lack of basic health facilities. The petitioners submitted that most areas of Tharparkar district, including Mithi, Chachro, Diplo, Islamkot and Nagarparkar were facing a famine-like situation and over 200 people, most of them being malnourished children, died in its wake. They said around 175,000 families were reported to have been affected and some of them were forced to leave their homes due to the famine. They stated that the Sindh chief minister had reportedly acknowledged negligence and failure of local administration in the tragedy and said that lives of children could have been saved if doctors, paramedical staff and health department officials had taken the matter seriously and shifted them to hospitals of Hyderabad for timely treatment and proper distribution of wheat bags. Theft of constitution document: The SHC once against directed the federal law officer, secretaries of law, justice and parliamentary affairs and the National Assembly to file comments on a petition seeking the registration of a case against the theft of original document of the Constitution of 1973. The direction came on petition by the Raah-e-Raast Trust which cited reports on news websites stating that the original constitution manuscript bearing signatures of all constituent assembly members and the then president had been lost. The petition, filed through Agha Syed Attaullah Shah, claimed that parliamentary sources had also confirmed that the original document was not available in the records of the National Assembly. He said it was an undeniable fact that during the late Zulfikar Ali Bhutto’s first government, the National Assembly of Pakistan had approved the first constitution of the country on April 10, 1973 , and on April 12, 1973, the National Assembly in its special session held at the State Bank Building in Islamabad had marked the signing ceremony on the new constitutional draft.

By Kiyya Baloch May 15, 2015 Despite considerable rhetoric and months of effort, the operations Pakistani paramilitary forces have been carrying out in Karachi still appear to be far short of bring peace to the port city. On Wednesday, six gunmen armed with sophisticated weapons gunned down at least 43 people and wounded 13 others in a busy market in the city. The attackers were able to flee unhurt from the scene. The attackers opened fire inside a bus carrying members of the Ismaili community, a sub-sect of Shiite Muslims known for their liberal views. In the wake of the attack came chaos, as mobs took out their anger on local police. Hundreds of men, women and children took to the streets, blaming Pakistan’s paramilitary forces and police for not targeting Jundullah, which claimed responsibility for the deadly attack. Jundullah is a splinter group of the Pakistani Taliban, allegedly based in a Pakistani tribal area and Quetta. According to senior Pakistani journalist Umar Farooq, Jundullah has very strong links with the Islamic State (IS), pledging allegiance in a November 2014 video message. Asked about the attack, Gulam Haider Jamali, Sindh Police Chief said, “We are in the process of investigation, if it was a security lapse we will act against police officers within the parameters www.afgazad.com 1 [email protected] of the Constitution.

The four names of great men from Sindh that he gave, included three former students of Sindh Madressah. Today, in 21st century, it gives pleasure that Sindh Madressah has kept alive that tradition of producing great men to serve the humanity.
  • Honour Killing in Sindh Men's and Women's Divergent Accounts

    Honour Killing in Sindh Men's and Women's Divergent Accounts

    Honour Killing in Sindh Men's and Women's Divergent Accounts Shahnaz Begum Laghari PhD University of York Women’s Studies March 2016 Abstract The aim of this project is to investigate the phenomenon of honour-related violence, the most extreme form of which is honour killing. The research was conducted in Sindh (one of the four provinces of Pakistan). The main research question is, ‘Are these killings for honour?’ This study was inspired by a need to investigate whether the practice of honour killing in Sindh is still guided by the norm of honour or whether other elements have come to the fore. It is comprised of the experiences of those involved in honour killings through informal, semi- structured, open-ended, in-depth interviews, conducted under the framework of the qualitative method. The aim of my thesis is to apply a feminist perspective in interpreting the data to explore the tradition of honour killing and to let the versions of the affected people be heard. In my research, the women who are accused as karis, having very little redress, are uncertain about their lives; they speak and reveal the motives behind the allegations and killings in the name of honour. The male killers, whom I met inside and outside the jails, justify their act of killing in the name of honour, culture, tradition and religion. Drawing upon interviews with thirteen women and thirteen men, I explore and interpret the data to reveal their childhood, educational, financial and social conditions and the impacts of these on their lives, thoughts and actions.

At the conference, there was a collective recognition of the unfolding impact of digitalization on various aspects of social, cultural, and political life in South Asia. We had a keen sense of how much things had changed in the South Asian mediascape since the introduction of cable and satellite television in the late 1980s and early 1990s. We were also aware of the growing interest in media studies within South Asian studies, and hoped that the conference would resonate with scholars from various disciplines across the humanities and social sci- ences.

My interest in Pakistan was first aroused when, as a child, I used to hear stories from my late father, an air force officer, about two Pakistan air force officers. In undivided India they had been his flight commanders in the Royal Indian Air Force. They and my father had fought in World War II together, flying Hurricanes and Spitfires over Burma and also after the war. Both these officers later went on to head the Pakistan Air Force.

    Budget Speech by Murad Ali Shah Minister for Finance on 7Th June 2012

    BUDGET SPEECH BY MURAD ALI SHAH MINISTER FOR FINANCE ON 7TH JUNE 2012 Budget Speech 2012-13 Honorable Mr. Speaker, I am grateful to Almighty Allah for the honour that he has bestowed upon me. Sir, I feel privileged to stand before this august house to present the fifth budget of this democratically elected government in Sindh. It is with pleasure that I present this budget free of anynew taxes. It is indeed a tribute to our great leaders Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto that the PPP-led coalition government in Sindh has been able to bring perceptible improvement in the lives of our people. The visionary ideals laid down by Quaid-e-Azam inspired our leaders and guided each and every member of our government to reach this milestone. Mr. Speaker, over the last four years, the PPP-led government at the Centre and here in Sindh, has faced a multitude of challenges. Many of these were legacies of mismanagement passed down from previous regimes. Natural calamities the likes of which have not been seen at least in the recorded history also hampered our development. Despite these obstacles, under the brave and pragmatic leadership of the Honourable President of Pakistan Mr. Asif Ali Zardari and the Honourable Prime Minister of Pakistan Syed Yusuf Raza Gillani and the guidance of Chief Minister Sindh Syed Qaim Ali Shah, we have successfully moved ahead and overcome the challenges with unflinching democratic will and commitment. We have remained steadfast in our resolve to strengthen democratic institutions in the country and have pursued the agenda based on reconciliation and consensus building with the broader objective of serving the people of Sindh to the best of our abilities.
