May24-2026--PTI Friday protests fizzle out...heat was excessive they say...
Political analyst Raza Rumi said the weak mobilization stemmed from multiple factors rather than a single cause. According to him, repeated protest cycles, fear generated by arrests, surveillance and legal crackdowns over the past two years, along with organizational strain within opposition ranks, have collectively undermined street mobilization. He said many supporters may still sympathize with the opposition's narrative but remain reluctant to participate physically due to the political and legal costs involved. Street politics in Pakistan historically depends not only on public anger but also on organizational coherence, anti govt feelings, government mobilization against the protests.... local networks and confidence that mobilization can produce tangible political outcomes. PTI had once demonstrated an unmatched ability to mobilize crowds rapidly, often prompting pre-emptive state action even before protests materialized. Crackdowns on PTI's leadership, workers and a crumbling-daily changing organizational structure(people just being stupidly appointed to posts without any real responsibility) after May 2023 had significantly reduced its ability to organize open mobilization on the scale previously witnessed. The state may now believe that PTI's capacity for disruptive street power has diminished, reducing the urgency for aggressive preventive measures. He added that the party's main challenge now was whether it could transform its electoral and digital support into a sustainable on-ground political structure under prevailing conditions.
Another analyst Hassan Askari Rizvi said the outcome was unsurprising that people are not coming out, pointing to two key reasons: economic pressure and fear of the state. And no real change in politics of the party
PTI has been attempting to get Imran released in the most stupidest ways...initially they suggested they would attack the jail..and than mounted a dharna attack on islamabad and than literally ran away... they than tried toget foreign support/interference...all they had needed to do was sit and talk peacefully/cooperatively to the government...massive numbers of those involved joined other parties and were not even targeted...than they had imrans sister turn into a radical and organise meaningless protests...
PTI had theories in two or three key opponents the police, the army/army chief and the government...all have improved their images...biggest Pti real protests were against the USA and in Imran fighting a police war against arrest and being anti army as well as the initial attempts to get him released...those issues have subsided and many believe Imran is getting what he propagated for and deserves tobe in jail...he visits his wife daily in jail and his children are in England...a family does not mean an entire clan...his politics from jail increasingly looked like being anti state treachery and begging for foreign intervention and even army coups when they were hell bent against the army and ISI cadres
Pti might need a new shining leader who does not have many anti state, religious ideology, ethnic, sectarian tags...Its Shiite and pukhtun politics has technically collapsed
May24-2026--govt approves Rs5.3billion helicopter for diamer-bhasha dam...Wapda had requested for three helicopters two years ago...the govt also increased cost of Tarbela 5th tunnel extension project cost from Rs.82 billion in 2016...the new cost is stated tobe Rs.316 billion...consultancy services cost increased to Rs.19 billion...diamer bhasha approved in 2018 at Rs.480 billion...confusion on the picture as it shows very low elevations...The planning minister tried to prove that he was not responsible and that Wapda was some independent organisation from another country..if the govt is responsible than it must coordinate on a daily basis to get projects moving..and not sit on approvals for two years...Wapda is amazing that it is arranging costs from its own resources and a couple of helicopters in the terrorism related situations should have been easy to approve...military bosses are not usually wapda oriented and previous ones have also been at times corrupt...while this one wanted much higher salaries

May24-2026--Trump says deal largely negotiated...iranians say some points still contested...
The US and Iran are close to signing a deal involving a 60-day ceasefire extension, during which the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened, Iran would be able to freely sell oil and negotiations would be held on curbing Iran’s nuclear program , Axios reports, citing a US official. According to the Axios report, during the 60-day period, the Strait of Hormuz would be open with no tolls and Iran would agree to clear the mines it deployed in the strait to let ships pass freely, Reuters noted.
In exchange, as part of the proposed deal, the US would lift its blockade on Iranian ports and issue some sanctions waivers to allow Iran to sell oil freely, the report added.
The draft agreement also includes commitments from Iran to never pursue nuclear weapons and to negotiate over a suspension of its uranium enrichment program and the removal of its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, the Axios report said.
generally such a deal which leaves the Hormuz under Iranian control and key nuclear issues yet tobe negotiated looks like a Iranian victory and very much like the Obama deal...Trump wants the petrol price to fall quickly so that americans can enjoy a little...americans have been dismayed and depressed as the media attacks the war on Iran and the prices at the gas pump...The US was keen on a free Hormuz without tolls...this has come about after a unique trump unified call to all USA regional associates about the Iran war....most of the region are US allies of one type or another whatever the nature of their relations with Iran

May19-2026--KP makes meaningless complaints about a few CNG stations closure due to constraints on SNGPL...The reason is probably because of high petrol prices...SNGPL should respond to the complaint...about wheat not being allowed to proceed to Kp and atta still being available the reasons might be the nasty CM attitude to Punjab and the federation...Wheat currently has just completed harvesting and the Punjab government has reduced its purchases...purchases of KP in the private sector can be made..as for water not being made available wheat acreage is quite low and in small plots of land in Kp...KP should allocate land in the Chasma canal areas for it to increase...Center should allow KP to import wheat from abroad...Kp should reduce intake of too many naans...some say they eat upto three naans at each meal...many say that KP should also connect its hydel stations to the national grid...If they have first right to their hydel and gas than Punjab also has first right to its wheat...zardari should straighten out his governor

May16-2026--why is PTI blamed for terrorim in KP and not the balochistn govt...the PTI chief minister is a known arsonist and heads the apex committee which has the corp commander and IG's and decides how to tackle things in the terrorism sphere..The terrorism in KP mostly originating in tribal areas and involves people friendly to the tribal Sohail afridi and with new phenomenons of tribals launching drones...The KP police and judiciary does almost nothing...no arrests or convictions...and than they blame the federal govt...the balochistan chief minister is a PPP man and does not make lying complaints against the center...there is also a completely controlled assembly and jirgas in Kp...The Baluchistan chief minister takes responsibility and does not get released 72 PTI arsonists...there is no need for police and KP judiciary since they are just bystanders...might as well dispense with them...If the corp commander is not helpful replace or retire him...most pukhtuns are also PTI supporters and hence the PTI and KP government are blamed...terrorism mostly suicide bombs and IEDS and drones ...are used and made in KP and it should be easy to control if the intelligence depts, paramilitaries and police work efficiently...which is totally under the control of PTI government..Interior minister must discuss terrorism with chief minister KP and corp commander rather than innocuous countries like Bangladesh, somalia , Iran and Egypt...!
