ARGH!! The mail to the city nazim bounced back because the inbox appears to have reached its limit and I receive an error page after submitting the form at the Ministry of Enviroment website. This all is making me even more stubborn. Are there no peaceful protests taking place against it in the city?

``The government and provincial and local bodies are servants of the people not their masters. ``
That should get the Nazims and others rolling on the floor with laughter.

temp, this approach may or may not work (if by work we mean affect policy or repsonse-ability). On the other hand, if it jst serves to sound notice to certain quarters that ppl aren`t completely indifferent to it all, it will have been a start to the change process, however miniscule.
And it sure as hell makes us feel a little less helpless and frustrated.

shandy: wrong approach…won’t work…(shaking me head)
try this:
ablute
after sunset prayer, face towards mecca, hands raised, heads bowed repeat in chorus
Ya Allaa:
tu BaRa meharbaan hay
tu baRa rahim hay
sOnn lay humari du’a iN…
Ya Allaa:
naik hidayat day
nakhuda-ouN ko
naik hidayat day
khudadad mamlukat e Pakistan kay
tamam chotay baRay nakhoodaouN ko
tu sirat e mustaqeem dikha
islamabad, karachi aur sind
kay sub na-khudaouN ko
naik hidayat day
naik raah dikha
woh mul’k, soobay aur sheh’r ki kashti
theek say chala’aiN
zul’m karain na honay daiN
ad’l o insaaf qayaam karaiN
aur haaN AllaamiaN
is tail ka bhee kuch ilaj kar!

umm, maybe it is a national security issue..
India had offered help but Pakistan said they are okay. I would like India to help because Pakistan sent aid when we had the earthquake. But if it is a national security isuue, I understand their refusal.

It is an environmental disaster ... I can`t believe the admiral in charge calmly saying ... oh its nothing a few thousand tonnes of oil... thats it... its nothing.

I think we should not interfere in the government business. I dont think that we have any authority to do so. Besides they told us several times that everything is under total control. It is best for us if we just dhania pee kar so jaiN; government told us to do so too. There is no constitution so your application is wrong and rejected. You should have said ``I beg your majesty, in the name of LFO``. You have to beg under LFO. You don`t have no rights. I think you are already on some kind of dhania or something. For your own sake use only that dhania that government prescribes.
