    ‘Imran Khan insists that armed forces should bring him back into power’: Bilawal

    Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that former Prime Minister Imran Khan insists that the armed forces should bring him back to power.

    “He [Imran Khan] doesn’t say how dare you remove me through a democratic means. He insists that the army, armed forces and intelligence agency should intervene to bring him back into power,” said Bilawal while speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York.

    “If they do not, they are in the wrong. For anyone who understands the history of Pakistan and watched our turbulent history, and our struggle for democracy, they will understand how dangerous it is for us,” said the foreign minister.

    It is pertinent to mention here that Pakistan’s parliament voted out Imran Khan in a no-confidence motion on April 9, capping a month-long political crisis that gripped the nation of 220 million.

    It is the first time a Pakistani prime minister has ever been ousted by a no-confidence motion put forward by the Opposition.

    Since then, Imran Khan and his party have become more popular but have criticized the security establishment in thinly veiled words, critiquing their “neutrality”.

    Shaking off his recent poor form, the star batsman managed to score 105 runs off 64 balls, becoming the top player to hit most international centuries as the Pakistan captain. Babar has now also become the first Pakistani to score two centuries in T20 Internationals.

    Pakistan’s opening duo of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan have become the most successful batting partners as they are the first-ever batting pair in T20Is to amass 1,800 runs as batting partners.

    Shortly, after the victory, Twitter was in all praise for the two.

  • What did Angelina Jolie do in Pakistan?

    What did Angelina Jolie do in Pakistan?

    United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Special Envoy and Hollywood actor Angelina Jolie arrived in Pakistan on Tuesday, September 20, to support communities affected by devastating floods.

    Jolie has arrived to witness and gain an understanding of the situation and to hear from people about their needs and steps to prevent such suffering in the future.

    Jolie will highlight the need for urgent support for the Pakistani people and long-term solutions to address the multiplying crises of climate change, human displacement and protracted insecurity we are witnessing globally.

    She will see first-hand how countries like Pakistan are paying the greatest cost for a crisis they did not cause.

    “The IRC hopes her visit will shed light on this issue and prompt the international community — particularly states contributing the most to carbon emissions — to act and provide urgent support to countries bearing the brunt of the climate crisis,” it said.

    IRC’s latest needs assessment shows people are in urgent need of food, drinking water, shelter, and healthcare. Every person the organisation surveyed reported women and girls have no access to menstrual hygiene products.

    Jolie, who previously visited victims of the 2010 floods and 2005 earthquake in Pakistan when she was the UNHCR’s goodwill ambassador, is scheduled to visit the IRC’s emergency response operations and local organisations assisting displaced people, including Afghan refugees.

    The Government of Pakistan stated that it finds Jolie’s gesture heart warming.

  • ‘World renowned Mufti Menk visits Pakistan for flood victims

    ‘World renowned Mufti Menk visits Pakistan for flood victims

    Leading Islamic scholar, Mufti Dr Ismail Menk, is visiting Pakistan to help flood victims after the natural catastrophe wrecked havoc across the country, turning one-third of the country into inland seas.

    The famous cleric, who is loved across the world by millions of Muslims, visited flood affected areas of Sindh.
    After his visits he noted that the situation is “unimaginable” and urged people to give as much charity and aid as they could to ease people’s suffering.


    “Please do whatever you can with any reliable charity or partner for those affected. We will have to assist for the next few YEARS,” he said in a video posted on his Instagram.

    Devastating floods in Pakistan have wreaked havoc across the country, leaving a path of destruction and loss in their wake. More than 1,599 people have lost their lives, one-third of whom are children.


    Record monsoon rains and melting glaciers triggered the disaster. The United Nations (UN) and Pakistan have linked the extreme weather to climate change; some 600,000 people have fled their homes.

    As many as 33 million people of the 220 million South Asian nation have been affected in some way by the floods that swept away houses, roads, railways and bridges and submerged around 4 million acres of farmland.

  • Shaista Lodhi, Ken Doll, Mathira blast Dananeer Mobeen for sharing dangerous beauty hacks

    Shaista Lodhi, Ken Doll, Mathira blast Dananeer Mobeen for sharing dangerous beauty hacks

    The ‘Pawri’ girl, Dananeer Mobeen who recently made her acting debut in Nadeem Baig’s Sinf e Aahan, recently shared a lip-plumping hack.

    Mobeen’s beauty hack has garnered scrutiny by the local celebrities and influencers. Make-up artist and influencer Ken Doll aka Adnan Zafar posted a video in which he criticised Dananeer for sharing a very dangerous kitchen trick to make lips fuller.

    Dananeer told her fans to put Vaseline, red pepper, and cinnamon powder on their lips. She said that this trick can make lips look perfectly full. Well, Ken Doll didn’t like this kitchen hack at all. He said that if someone wants fuller lips, they should spend money and go to a doctor. He went on to talk about a few products that can easily make the lips look full and perfect. He has told the girls that they can’t put red pepper on their lips or in their mouths because it can cause allergic reactions. He has said that these cheap kitchen tricks are too dangerous and that you shouldn’t fall for every one of them.

    Celebrity and dermatologist Shaista Lodhi has also slammed Dananeer in a podcast, “I don’t understand that how a person having a mobile becomes a doctor or a influencer herself. It’s very dangerous, please don’t do such things. Don’t apply red chilli direct on your lips at all, use a pink or red colored blush for such beauty hacks.”

    “If a person becomes a doctor or an expert, it happens through a process like I became a doctor through a process. I’m sure that if the internet of this country goes down for a day, 90% of the influencers will vanish away”, added the Pardes star.

    Actor Mathira also commented on the matter, “Omg wow why would anyone guide someone to put chillliiii on the lips pls everything on google babaaaaa ain’t always right and okay for all people some peoples skin are really sensitive”
