Good stuff. Well written, as always, Bina.

Tell me are things really this bad in Karachi or have taken a bit of artistic license?

HeLLO bINA

in this account we see you reflect upon the despair, despondency and the kind of quiet desperation (that elicits itself in a not so muffled fashion) which drives the present youth of Pakistan, giving me another chance to savor your keen insight and ofcourse your expressive
