The most senior Muslim policeman in Britain has complained about the treatment which he was facing at the highest level of the Metropolitan police department. He said that he has been subjected to discrimination over a long period by the present Commissioner Sir Ian Blair.

Tariq Ghaffur has lodged a complaint with employment tribunal over this discrimination and has said that he has nothing to do with unhappiness at not being promoted.

In our own Islamic Republic of Pakistan where we always hear about Islamic brotherhood, such complaints are not uncommon. There is a quota system for government jobs in the country which discriminates between the people on the basis of birth, religion and language.

According to BBC, Warner Bros is suing and Indian film company over the title of an upcoming film, Hari Puttar, A comedy of terror. The film is about to be released in September. Warner Bros says that the name of the film is too similar to their world famous child wizard Harry Potter. A lawsuit has been filed in the Bomby High Court which will start hearing the case soon.

I think that there is not much resemblance in Hari Puttar and Harry Potter. There isn’t any similarity in the story either. Hari is a common name in India which is not even similar in pronunciation to the English Harry.

The senior most journalist of the country Ardeshir Cowasjee in his column has written that issuing of National Reconciliation Ordinance is the greatest sin of President Musharraf and veteran leader Mumtaz Ali Bhutto have said almost the same thing.

President Musharraf should say sorry to the nation and withdraw this ordinance, sooner the better. This will flatten many balloons.

It is said that prevention is better than care. It perfectly fits obesity. If proper care is taken in diet and physical exercise is made a habit, obesity can be prevented without using any diet pills. What happens is that in the heat of our work and busy life we do not pay proper attention to what we are eating. In this age of fast food, we consume high calorie food that deposits extra fat in our body. When we do not burn the extra calorie that we take, the fat continues to deposit at odd places in our body and a time comes when we look into the mirror and find ourselves fat.

Everyone knows that it is not good to be fat. It can lead to serious health problem. There is a greater probability for a fat person to contract diseases such as diabetes, heart problems, hypertension etc. A fat person gets tired very easily. So I would advise you to prevent fatness so that you do not need diet pills to burn fat.

Is the Pakistan Army going to ask Pervez Musharraf to resign? According to a report which is published in the Telegraph the Pakistan Army is going to ask Pervez Musharraf to resign within a week. The newspaper has quoted an undisclosed former military aid of the president according to whom the army leadership does not want the president to face the humiliation of impeachment.

The source says that the army is neutral but is expecting the president to resign. It will influence the president’s safe passage as the senior leadership of the army would not want him to be punished It further says that the ruling coalition decided to impeach the president because he had started to plot against the government with the help of intelligence agencies.

I think that there is not much substance in this report. Zardari wants to become the president and Nawaz wants to settle personal score. There is no other reason for bringing the impeachment motion against the president. I would also say it here that the day Zardari becomes the president of the country, it will be the unfortunate day in the history of Pakistan

According to a CNN report the United States fears that the move to impeach President Musharraf may harm the war on terror in which Pakistan plays a pivotal role. The CNN report contradicts the statement issued by the spokesman of the Statement Department according to which the impeachment would not affect the war on terror.

The CNN has said quoting senior State Department officials that the internal turmoil which has resulted from the impeachment move will harm the efforts to defeat militants hiding in the tribal areas of Pakistan.

The signals which we are getting from Washington regarding the impeachment move are conflicting. I believe that United States would not stand behind its most important ally in the war on terror. This is not a new thing with the United States. They always leave their friends high and dry, when they have served their purpose.

This is a fact that President Musharraf was the most important person and the driving force in the country against the war on terror. If his towering personality is removed, the efforts to defeat the rising insurgency in the country will not succeed and I fear that it may spread to other parts of the country as well.

The leaders of the ruling coalition in Pakistan have said that they would start impeachment proceedings against President Pervez Musharraf. This was said in a joint press conference by Asif Ali Zardari and Nawaz Sharif. Zardari derided the economic policies of the president and held him responsible for the economic travails of the country.
Zardari also accused the president of undermining the transition to democracy. Someone must tell Zardari that democracy does not mean change on clothes only. Pervez Musharraf has done a lot for the country and if the people do not realize it, it would be better for him to step down. If the President was responsible for bad policies, why is it that his policies have not been reversed so far?
If it was wrong to send forces in tribal areas and Baluchistan, why has the new democratic government not called the military back?
The new government has thrown the country into an abyss from where it would not be easy to jump out. I believe that the main reason for bringing the impeachment motion is this that Zardari does not want to restore judges and hence in order to detract the attention of the people, he has started a new show. I think that Zardari should have the moral courage to say that he would face all the corruption and murder charges against him in the courts instead of getting everything clean with the infamous NRO. The NRO was also issued by Pervez Musharraf.

The leader of Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) has warned against the presence of Taliban in Karachi. He has warned about the activities of Taliban in Karachi and this is borne out by the statement issued by Taliban spokesman Maulvi Umer that they can take over Karachi.

Strangely the Sindh government has brushed aside the threat as baseless and has accused MQM of baseless propaganda. Karachi is the most important and largest city of Pakistan and is rightly called the revenue engine of the country. It is necessary that the government takes such threat seriously instead of resorting to party politics. The fate of the city cannot be left in the hands of inept provincial home minister who has nothing to recommend him besides being a close friend of Asif Zardari.

Karachi has seen massive development work in recent years and is emerging as an important city in the region. It has the potential to grow and attract foreign investment. If proper steps are not taken to check the presence of Taliban in the city, it can be harmful for the whole of country in the long run.

Local government elections are being held in Bangladesh under the military backed caretaker government. This is the first election since the caretaker government imposed a state of emergency in the country. In order to facilitate the election process the government has relaxed emergency measures. General elections which were due last year could not be held because of political violence. I hope that the local government elections are conducted in a free and fair manner.

Despite every step taken by the caretaker government to find a new leadership in the country, it is the same Awami League versus Bangladesh National Party once again. This is the same situation which we saw in Pakistan where General Pervez Musharraf took a number of steps to introduce democracy in the country, but in the end it was Pakistan People’s Party versus Pakistan Muslim League.

I think that so long as the people of the country do not try to find an honest and true leadership, their problems are not going to be solved. If the people are satisfied with corruption and inefficiency what can be done? People themselves seal their fate when they vote for corrupt people.
