Re: # 4 Thanks for pointing out an article that takes on the topic similar to mine. This is to clarify that mine was an individual attempt and the "Brides on the Roads" that the article talks about saying it was published in Dawn, I must my title is a sheer coincidence because I have translated this article from an Urdu version I wrote for the Quami newspaper (published) about 4 years ago. So, clarifying any doubts of plagiarism.

I liked this , a bit like a short bus ride? If the authorities refuse to take action against those that routinely kill men, women and children than bus burnings are the only way to go.
