Imran deceitful, dances to others’ tune: Bilawal

SAHIWAL: PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Wednesday declared Imran Khan deceitful and Nawaz Sharif a liar.He said the PTI chief used to dance to others’ tunes. He said incompetent rulers had deceived the nation time and again.

He said neither Imran nor Nawaz had solutions to the problems faced by the country. He said reactionary parties were ruling Punjab and added that banned outfits had contested the NA-120 by-election.Addressing a rally at Zafar Ali Stadium, Bilawal said the Sharif family only cared about their businesses, not the poor nation. He added that although the people were the source of power, their rights had been usurped.

He said the scions of dictators were sucking the people’s blood by disguising as democrats. Bilawal claimed that the farmers were being deprived of their rights but the PPP, after coming into power, would give ‘Kissan Card’ to those who owned less than 30 acres of land.

“The PPP has always fought for the farmers’ rights,” he said, promising that the PPP would implement a ‘Kissan Support System’ to facilitate the farmers. The programme would allow the farmers to get interest-free loans, he said and also promised to increase salaries and pensions. The PPP chairman also claimed that his party was holding huge rallies but media owners did not give coverage to them although their journalists attended the gatherings.

Unique home that sits on US-Canada border

Unique home that sits on US-Canada border TORONTO: Selling a home in two countries is proving to be a challenge for the owners as it requires security clearance from both Canada and the United States. A 1782 fixer-upper with thick granite walls, 1950s decor, and armed 24-hour security provided by both two big countries are one of the major attractions for the buyers. The almost 7,000-square-foot house, cut into five currently vacant apartments, is on a lot of less than a quarter-acre that, along with the building itself, straddles the border between Beebe Plain, Vermont, and Stanstead, Quebec. The structure that has an estimated rebuild cost of about $600,000, is on the market for $109,000. It's structurally sound but needs lots of work. An inside view shows tape on the floor upstairs to indicate which side belongs to Canada and the United States. The house was originally built by a merchant in order to facilitate sales to farmers in both Vermont and Quebec. It ...

Prime Minister who is currently in New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly gave his first international media interview to the CNN. The interview was primarily based on Pakistan and US strained relations; however it ended on a rather amusing note when PM was asked about his interest in skydiving.

Musharraf’s statement riddled with self-contradictions

Musharraf’s statement riddled with self-contradictions ISLAMABAD: Former president General (retd) Pervez Musharraf triggered a national level debate when he alleged that the PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari had masterminded the murders of Benazir Bhutto and her brother Mir Murtaza Bhutto. Musharraf quickly rose to his defence when the finger was pointed at him for the murder of Ms Bhutto. Mincing no words, he said Zardari and some powerful elements in Afghanistan (Hamid Karzai and TTP leader Baitullah Mehsood) were behind the assassination of Benazir Bhutto. The PPP leader was martyred in a gun and bomb attack at Liaquat Bagh, Rawalpindi on December 27, 2007 while leaving the venue after addressing a rally. Musharraf appeared to be clear in his statements, but he may not have realised that it was riddled with self-contradictions, negating his own claims. The plain and simple fact is that being the president at that time he cannot absolve himself of his responsi...
