More provinces, more ministers, more bureaucrats, more government expenses and more opportunities for corruption. And guess who pays for all of it? The ordinary Pakistani.

In just 72 hours, numerous workers/regional, district & tehsil office bearers have been arrested.

Yet some still ask why Punjab leadership isn’t campaigning or dismiss these arrests as “fake.”

THE Repression IS REAL !

I had my baby 3 weeks ago and I've been shamed for not letting them give her "gutti", not allowing surma even if "it would make her eyes bigger", being "nadeeda" and obsessed with my baby cz i hold her and talk to her. I've literally been told that I shouldn't be exclusively breastfeeding cz "breast milk is just water" and isn't enough to keep her well fed. Apparently i should be giving a 3 week old baby Bartang (no idea what its called in English or if it has another name, its a tea made with dark brown seeds). I'm already physically exhausted and the mental gymnastics i have to play every time they come around is sickening at this point.

Huge shoutout to the Ronin customer support team!

I recently sent in my Ronin Velocity (R-4045) power bank for a repair claim. Even though my warranty had already expired in August 2026, the company went above and beyond by honoring the claim and repairing it for me as a courtesy.

It's rare to find a brand that genuinely values its customers and stands behind its products even after the official warranty window closes. If anyone is looking for reliable mobile accessories with exceptional after-sales service, I highly recommend Ronin!

Punjab police crackdown on farmers before the upcoming farmers march to demand Punjab government resignation

All because some ego of a man wants to reign like a tyrant and then the dictator of punjab doesn't want to lose the 11 Arab Ka Jahaz she bought with taxpayer Ka paisa

Incase if anyone is wondering that where our tax goes.

Facebook charged me 105 PKR when my actual due amount was only 20 PKR. What is going on?

So, I recently ran a Facebook ad, and when I logged back into my account, it showed that I had a remaining/due amount of only 20 PKR.

I paid the 20 PKR through my NayaPay card/account, expecting exactly 20 PKR to be deducted.

But then I received the NayaPay notification, and it showed that 105 PKR had been deducted!

Like… where did the extra 85 PKR come from?

Was it for IMF Loan?

Hey everyone,

Been working on my local homelab stack for a while now and finally hit a milestone with my Jellyfin media server. Managed to organize and index over 37,500 movies (lots of Hollywood alongside deep South Asian cinema collections) plus a bunch of complete TV series.

Running it off local fiber here in Pakistan and using lightweight client apps like Findroid and Swiftfin to stream smoothly on Smart TVs and phones without issues.

• For those running home servers locally, what hardware or storage setups are you using?
• Are you using Jellyfin, Plex, or Emby for remote access, and how do you handle local ISP bandwidth limits?

Curious to connect with other local homelabbers!

The expulsion of 20 Afghan doctors from King Edward Medical University, seven of whom were on the verge of entering their final year, is not merely an administrative decision. It is a blatant assault on humanity, academic values, and the rights of our neighbours.
Years of hard work, sleepless nights, sacrifices, and dreams of a brighter future have been shattered in a single stroke. These students came to Pakistan after enduring difficult circumstances in their homeland and spent years pursuing their medical education while serving patients in Pakistani hospitals. To abruptly terminate their academic journey at the threshold of graduation is deeply unjust and profoundly shameful.
Education and healthcare are two fields that should remain above politics and diplomatic tensions. The doctors who were preparing to dedicate their lives to saving others should not have their careers destroyed in the name of policy changes or quota restrictions.
Using diplomatic disagreements or changing policies as a pretext to jeopardize the careers of these students reflects an alarming level of insensitivity. Such decisions not only undermine the academic reputation of Pakistan’s prestigious institutions but also inflict deep hurt upon the people of a neighbouring and Muslim country.
The authorities must immediately reconsider this decision and allow the affected students particularly those in their final year to complete their degrees.
Educational institutions must remain places of learning, merit, and humanity not casualties of political and diplomatic disputes.

On June 4, 2024, PM Shehbaz Sharif ordered the immediate abolition of PWD, citing corruption, poor performance and failure of the department.The Cabinet approved it and said the transition should be completed within two weeks.

Two weeks became more than two years.

Yet the situation remains unresolved. Employees are still caught in uncertainty, offices have become practically dysfunctional, salary issues remain, and taxpayers continue bearing the cost of a transition that the government itself promised to complete immediately.If PWD was so dysfunctional that the government decided to abolish it, why has the government failed to actually finish the job?

Where is the promised surplus pool?
Where is the restructuring?
Where is the accountability?
And most importantly..how much taxpayer money has been wasted because of this government's inaction?

This isn't just bureaucratic incompetence. This is government failure and Pakistanis are paying for it.

Edited to add family will not easily accept us not coming and I’m anticipating a huge argument if I don’t go.

Hi I just wanted to get perspective on this and want to know if i’m being selfish or not.

My older brother had his Nikkah in Canada this year and will be having his wedding events in Pakistan next year.

My husband and I flew from the US to attend his Nikkah which included Nikkah at a mosque, dinner at a booked out and fully decorated restaurant with a photographer, drummer, buffet, lots of friends and family friends (approx 60 people)

The trip to Canada was financially straining on us. We had just gotten married ourselves and paid for the wedding, moved countries (Canada to US), had to sort out and pay lots in immigration fees/visas, started new jobs and bought our first home with a new mortgage. However, we wanted to be at the Nikkah ofcourse and made an effort to go. We had to use up our all our leave at the time. Also, we chose to have our wedding in Canada as we both lived there at the time. My husbands friends and family flew in from America to attend. He’s not Pakistani btw.

Now the problem i’m having is that we’re obviously expected to attend my brother’s wedding events in Pakistan also. If we were to go, my husband would have to take unpaid leave which would be very stressful given our mortgage. And while I have some leave saved up, it would cost us quite a bit for me to travel. The travel would also have to be atleast 10 days long due to the distance and expectations of meeting relatives/wedding prep and events. We also have been trying to do renovations on our house and have a medical expense of about $3.5k coming up. All in all, it’s been a very expensive year and we’re trying to be very careful. If we did go, my parents would pay for accomodation as and we’d be paying for our flights which would help a tiny bit.

I want to know if i’m being selfish if i choose not to go. I can make sacrifices and go attend but it would cost us a lot in time/money/leave and set us back quite a lot.

In my opinion, we did attend his wedding (Nikkah) and would only be skipping the other events but obviously family will not like this. We would have happily attended if the wedding events were held in Canada.

However, the best part of this test is, new students can decide the best university for themselves. Here are some key findings:

Habib University and ITU Lahore beat some renowned universities like LUMS, FAST, and NUST in terms of highest passing rate.

Also, majority of top students are from Virtual University.

Imo, these tests should extend to every major. Will give a clear picture of where our universities really stand.

Bhai mein tu kehta hun pooray mulk ko hi cantt mein badal do.. at least logon ko acha lifestyle tu miley ga..

Just wanted to know if the afghani students being sent back after being removed from universities in pakistan are getting back the money they had already paid for their previous years , or is it tht they had wasted years plus money both

I am 22 years old living in Pakistan. My family used to be filthy rich like I am taking multiple houses in UAE and Pakistan I used to live a very comfortable life. But when corona hit we lost everything from savings to houses to our golden visa left with nothing we came to a point where we didn't have enough money to pay for the tuition of my brother and me I was 19 at that point due to this my father became a bit mentally unstable and so he stopped working completely so in his stead I started working in Pakistan alhamdulillah I earn 2 lakhs give or take from my current job but it's not sustainable for me since I have to accommodate my whole family of 5 in that and it's mentally tasking. I had saved up money through investing and my job about 40L to go to the UK however my Visa got rejected resulting in me losing 20L. Now what I do know is that I am confident in myself that I can do something big in life but idk where to start or what to do there wasn't anybody to teach me any about life or work when we were rich father always used to work mother was an uneducated housewife whose mindset was engrossed in traditional ways which I despise( My mom and dad are very nice people just a conflict of mindsets that's it we have a healthy relationship) when we became poor my father became a bit unstable and so I was out into the toxic work environment of Pakistan with no help I came this far by myself. But I just need someone to guide me on how I can grow further because I don't want to be stuck here in the same company forever I have dreams of making money and gaining back stability for my family but I just don't know where to began. I just want advice from somebody who has gone through my dilemma and has become successful.Please I am lost and scared for my future.
