    Celebrities go crazy after Arshad Nadeem’s historic Olympic gold medal

    Arshad Nadeem made history by winning an Olympic gold medal for Pakistan after 29 years, after he pulled off an Olympic record breaking 92.9 meters throw.

    In a highly tough competition, India’s Neeraj Chopra who was defending his gold medal from Tokyo 2020 threw his best of 89.45 meters for silver, while Grenada’s Anderson Peters took bronze with a throw of 88.54 meters.

    The win has sent waves of happiness and pride across the country as celebrities and fans took to social media to congratulate Arshad on his historic performance.

    Many celebrities shared stories on their Instagram to congratulate and appreciate the national hero.

    Here are some stories shared by the celebrities:

    Twitter goes wild after Arshad Nadeem’s record breaking gold medal

    Arshad Nadeem created history, smashed records, won a medal and lifted 24 million people to the height of joy, all in one memorable night.

    Pakistan’s star javelin thrower won The country’s first athletics and individual gold medal at the Games with his Olympic record breaking 92.9 meter throw. He then set the second record after just twenty minutes, with a 92.97 meter throw.

    Twitter went crazy as the Mian Chunnu boy swept through the record books. Here are some reactions:

  • Electricity prices increased by Rs2.56 per unit under fuel cost adjustment

    Electricity prices increased by Rs2.56 per unit under fuel cost adjustment

    In a move likely to compound the financial difficulties faced by inflation-burdened citizens, the federal government announced a Rs2.56 per unit increase in the power tariff on Thursday.

    This adjustment, pertaining to fuel cost adjustment (FCA) for June, will be reflected in electricity bills issued in August.

    This tariff hike is part of a strategy to bolster Pakistan’s chances of securing a new programme from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) has officially notified the increase, which will exclude lifeline and K-Electric consumers.

    The new tariff adjustment is expected to impose an additional financial burden of Rs33.45 billion on consumers. With the inclusion of an 18 per cent GST, this figure is projected to rise to Rs39 billion. The Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA) had proposed a slightly higher increase of Rs2.63 per unit under the FCA.

    The surge in electricity costs, coupled with escalating taxes, has sparked significant public dissatisfaction, leading to protests and sit-ins from communities already struggling with the rising cost of living.

    This public outcry has pressured the government to explore options for reducing electricity rates in an effort to alleviate some of the financial strain on the populace.

    Last month, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s administration had already implemented a substantial increase in the base electricity tariff for domestic consumers, raising it to Rs48.48 per unit. Consumers in Karachi were also affected by this hike.

    However, a temporary reprieve was granted to those using up to 200 units per month, who will not see their rates increase for the next three months.

    Additionally, the power regulator has approved the federal government’s request for tariff increases affecting commercial, general services, bulk, and agricultural consumers.

    Resham reveals why she supports Rahat Fateh Ali Khan after leaked video

    Resham, a renowned actress in the entertainment world has always managed to win her audience with talent on both the big screen and television. She’s also known for her open opinions and unwavering support for her friends.

    Recently Resham appeared on Ambreen Fatima Youtube channel where the host, Ambreen asked, “ Resham, tell us about the viral video of Rahat Fateh Ali Khan where he was seen hitting his employee. Many people spoke out against him. When you defended him and spoke positively about him, you faced criticism. What do you have to say about that?”
    Resham replied, “Even if I face criticism 100 times, I don’t care. I know Rahat Fateh Ali Khan very closely and I can confidently say that his family is exceptional and deeply committed to charity. I recall how Rahat once generously covered the wedding expenses for a young girl. He’s a global icon, not just a Pakistani star. When someone of his stature apologises, we should learn to forgive.”

    Rahat Fateh Ali faced severe criticism after a video of his went viral, where he was seeing beating up a member of his staff.

  • SBP governor says debt rollovers will ease Pakistan’s FY25 financial burden

    SBP governor says debt rollovers will ease Pakistan’s FY25 financial burden

    State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) Governor Jameel Ahmad assured the public on Wednesday that friendly nations will roll over nearly $16 billion of the country’s outstanding debt for the fiscal year 2025.

    This crucial support is expected to provide the government with significant breathing room amid ongoing financial challenges.

    In his testimony before the National Assembly Standing Committee on Finance and Revenue, chaired by MNA Naveed Qamar, Ahmad revealed that Pakistan’s total debt obligations for FY25 amount to $26.2 billion. Following the planned rollovers, the remaining debt to be settled by June next year will be reduced to $10 billion.

    Ahmad also highlighted that the central bank has already repaid $1.5 billion in debt last month, leaving an outstanding amount of $8.5 billion for the rest of the fiscal year.

    Secretary of Finance Imdad Ullah Bosal added that Pakistan is set to receive its first tranche from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) following the rollover of approximately $4 billion in Chinese commercial loans. Additionally, $4.4 billion is expected from the Asian Development Bank and the World Bank.

    The SBP Governor further stated that there is no immediate pressure on external payments, which should contribute to the stability of the Pakistani rupee. He projected that foreign exchange reserves could reach $13 billion by the end of the fiscal year.

    With improved economic conditions, further reductions in the policy rate are anticipated. However, he warned that inflation might rise to 13.5 per cent this fiscal year due to budgetary policies and energy price fluctuations.

    In his presentation, Ahmad outlined a comprehensive five-year plan to the Finance Committee. The plan focuses on restoring price stability, managing the current account deficit, ensuring that foreign exchange reserves cover three months of import needs, and achieving greater financial stability and transparency.

    He noted that GDP growth has been constrained to 3.5 per cent over the past decade and emphasised the need to boost exports by 10 to 15 per cent. Ahmad also assured that there are no restrictions on imports, aiming to foster a more balanced economic growth.

  • Why do Pakistanis want to leave their country?

    Why do Pakistanis want to leave their country?

    To understand the reasons, we first need to understand the accelerating crisis in Pakistan. A big number of people are trying to leave Pakistan as economic conditions worsen day by day. The country is drowning in debts.

    According to the Business Recorder, Pakistan’s external debt and liabilities have soared to 130.179 billion dollars in May 2024 and total public debt at the end of Mar 2024 was 67.525 trillion rupees. Plus Consultant, a research organization, says that 74 percent of Pakistanis cannot meet their expenditures.

    Economic stability comes with political stability. The country is facing political instability from inside and outside its borders. There is no political consensus on defining national interest and political rivalry creates more chaos.

    The impact of this situation can be seen in different social entities. Worst kind of intolerance is being observed in the society. An alarming situation for rapidly growing population and very limited opportunities. Conclusively, multiple factors linked to the economic and political instability in Pakistan are being observed the middle class. They try to find ways to avail opportunities available in the global market.

    According to Bureau of Immigration and Overseas Employment, 13.65 million skilled and educated people were working abroad till June 2024. Among those, 78185 are accountants, 36731 doctors, 10932 engineers, and 23027 teachers. 13 million of them went to Gulf countries. These are the registered number of employees. Remittances data shows that in the FY23, total remittances were 2187.1 million US dollars which increased to 3158.3 million US dollars in the FY24.

    This year, more than 700,000 people already left Pakistan for a better future. This number was 862625 and 832339 in the years 2023 and 2022 respectively. However, politicians consider overseas Pakistanis as an asset as they contribute a lot in the economy of Pakistan.
