The Daily Pakistan Politics (aka Pakistan Punch/Political Punch) Mar16-31, 2025

Mar23-2025--a dubious judgement by a panel of dissenting judges already replaced by a presidential order...has top judges of the Islamabad district courts prepared to file a review. The judge's service tribunal had said appointment on deputation was illegal and ordered all of them tobe transferred back...

Mar23-2025--four police personnel killed in an armed attack in Noshki...four laborers killed in Kalat attack

Mar23-2025--parts of Baluchistan shut as police crackdown on BYC...government offers talks to arrested leaders...BYC protesting arrest of Bebarg Baloch, his brother vice principal of Bolan medical college and family. Participants in a BYC sit-in also protesting alleged burial of 13 bodies without identification from the recent railway attack...the sit-in camp uprooted and people dispersed some with three bodies killed in a police crackdown a day earlier

Mar23-2025--Torkham opens after a 27 closure after unagreed construction by Afghanistan...Afghanistan only wants trade and transit and not willing to resolve terrorism issues...people moved both ways at Torkham

Mar20-2025-- a IHC judge sardar Ejaz Ishaq khan contested the removal of a Imran visit case from his court and called the Deputy court registrar and advocate general to attend and explain who gave the ICJ CJ/larger bench such power for cancellation of the cause list. Judges are making fun on the issue of public confidence...he raised issues of interference and said that you might have just as well have demolished  my court room...these cases are not directly public related and deal with a political party that refuses to recognize the government or the super as an authority...prima facie the chief justice's ruling might be correct as PTI has made a joke/mockery out of visiting rights and jail facilities and the super can obviously not handle all 26 cases. The court should quickly establish order and allow specific lawyers, politicians and family to visit. Court could upgrade Imran to an a-class prisoner to solve some issues. Or transfer him to a jail in his home.

 Mar19-2025--In  plea by the adiala jail Superintendent about logistics of  attending all cases about Imran's visitation process and  jail stay the IHC formed a three judges larger bench and shifted all 26 pleas to it...the petitions filed by various lawyers pti mnas, sisters of Imran and wife etc...even somebody called Malala Yousafzai who is at best  a spokesperson for Bushra...in that case judge Ejaz had ordered his clerk to personally visit the jail and verify whether he had been denied to meet Malala who is not his legal counsel. Superintendent jail said that Imran refuses some meetings. The super says he has 8000 inmates despite which Imran has been provided all privileges and regular meetings with family, lawyers and politicians. He just wants a consistent ruling. Jail super has authority to regulate or restrict meetings under prison regulations...Imran's spokesman was instructed to follow legal proceedings under the larger bench...he also regretted that jail authorities were not arranging weekly phone calls to his children, mandatory 72-hour private meetings with his wife every 90 days. Jail had also discontinued tv and newspapers...

How it all started...coups and politics and islam and democracy...

how bhuttos got into politics in 1958...

debacle in Dacca

debacle in Dacca
total humiliation...India had steadily destabilized east pakistan over twenty years playing on ethnic, financial, development and military concerns...pakistan was not that rich at that time and the ethnicists played on phsychosis generated by cyclones, floods, tea and jute...the army and west pakistani politicians could not accept a bengali dominated government and a small army contingent could not defend against the mukti bahini and the indians as teh US withdrew its support as usual...When teh going gets tough teh US chickens out as usual...!! The indians have continued teh same themes in karachi, sindh and balochistan but similar tougher responses have not allowed their success although pakistan is now at best a divided land with a pathetic center...!!While it left pakistan numb at the time many now feel the seperation was a proper solution as east pakistanis did not get along with pakistan and they would be better able to solve their problems with india...others still pine away for the lost land of rivers, tea and jute...others suggest that india should handover kashmir in exchange...while some still want to repatriate those considered pakistanis and left stranded in bangladeshi camps...others however heave a sigh of relief as teh problems with the remaining provinces are generally insoluble.....and ethnic regionalism or provincialism mixed with economic and racial nonsense is not a pleasant mode of politics anyway...
