Pakistan is the 5th populist country in the world. Lahore as the capital of Punjab; everybody must visit Lahore for work, business or education. Health is the most important factor of a human being. Taking a breath in the atmosphere of Lahore bad.
Everybody is bound by its fate, no one can deny the facts or change his/her ethnicity; one must compromise one way or other. Lahore is the Third largest city of Pakistan and 15th largest city in the world. It has everything that one needed for his survival such as medical facilities, Government departments and educational institutes.
Traffic jam is on the main routes is everyday activity; the people of rural areas surrounding Lahore must face on their daily commutes. After eight hours of work being stuck in traffic, a blockage is equal to torture physically and mentally.
People of other political parties usually make fun of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) by saying “Mian Sahib ‘ik pul hor bnaa devo’. But as a rational writer, if all the work on the infrastructure of the Lahore was not done, Lahore would not be a livable city.
In conclusion, the lack of effective Sewerage system makes every street and road flood; a person must wait hours or switch his route in case of a little rain.
School plays a crucial role in forming the nation. It adds life-lasting impacts on the children.
In all parts of the World, east and west, parents send their children to school for their growth. The infant starts learning the moment he born, he tries to memories things, the faces he sees. When he grows up the parents send him in school. So that when he grows up he can live within a human being.
All schools do not provide quality education. Everywhere, a few schools are famous for there quality education. But, those schools are not affordable by common citizens. Sometimes, political influence is used to get into school. For example, MBBS admission.
“Elite class Education; only for Elite class.” -Waqas Gondal
When we look at the list of the leaders of the country or the bureaucracy of Pakistan. The major chunk is occupied by foreign graduates. Why it is so? The ninety per cent of the CSS aspirants are qualified from the institutes of Pakistan; however, the threshold of CSP’s is not like that.
In order to bring Pakistan in a developed nation, improvement in education is necessary. And this step must be taken from the grass-root level. There are 200 million children out of school at the primary level. How can anyone expect them to secure a good job in this community without education?
Lahore is famous for many things, and dacoity is one of them. The people of different parts of the world have heard stories about the cleverness of Lahories. However, for the novice or the ones who visit Lahore occasionally; often deceived here. No one can deny the fact, God made all of us equally. but, some of use it negatively. Before I came to Lahore, I often asked about Lahore, culture, people and the places to visit.
It is been a while, I have settled in Lahore to pursue my career in press. Daily I have to interact with a diverse range of people; who work in different departments and who speak their regional languages.
A few days ago, I bought a new motorcycle. I visit the petrol pump for fuel and asked to fill it up. Honestly, it was the first day, I parked it outside my residence. On the next day, in the morning, I was on my daily commute. My bike did not drove more than five kilometres when I checked my petrol gauge was on reserve and, the bike tank was empty.
Lahore is a congested city, thousands of people living in a town which is for hundreds. thousands of the people live under the bridges for shelter. They sleep on the footpath without any roof. This community exist in other cities. They usually ask for money and often involved in petty crimes. The government should also pay heed to the people of these communities. Having all said, we cannot blame the city for wrongdoings of people, but, we cannot hide the reality.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), an Islamic state, is known for its judicial system. Many individuals from different countries travel to KSA for work, aiming to earn a stable income to support their families and provide them with a comfortable life. However, some individuals face challenges that hinder their aspirations.
Muhammad Imran was among those who sought a better future but, unfortunately, faced difficulties. He was subjected to capital punishment in KSA. His family, however, was unable to receive his remains. While the Islamic justice system upholds principles of fairness, some situations raise concerns about legal representation and communication barriers.
Many individuals, including Muhammad Imran, have encountered difficulties navigating the legal system. Language barriers posed a significant challenge, as trials were conducted in Arabic, which he could neither understand nor speak fluently. His story is one among many, with approximately 7,000 individuals currently in detention across various Arab nations, including around 3,400 Pakistanis in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had previously expressed intentions to facilitate the release of Pakistani prisoners. However, the process remains complex. Diplomatic ties between KSA and Pakistan are generally considered strong, with both nations maintaining friendly relations.
Islam promotes principles of justice and humanity, and there is always room for efforts to enhance legal transparency and accessibility for all individuals, regardless of nationality. It is hoped that continued dialogue and cooperation will lead to positive developments in ensuring fair legal representation for expatriates in need.

This history of libraries dates back to ancient times. The main objective of libraries are access to the books. People travel hundreds and thousands of miles to acquire knowledge. However, after the introduction of computer and Internet technology; it is declining continuously.
Amazon Kindle, an e-reader, launched in 2000. This gadget helps in reducing the burden of heavy books. Therefore, a man can carry millions of books in his pocket.
Good leaders focus on the education. They educate their nation and enhance the skills of the labor force. As a result, the economy of the country flourish. The existing libraries are not maintained as they were. Certainly, they are not required anymore.
Above all, the main object of library is to provide books and space to read them. After the introduction of Web technology; it is totally changed. Students and researchers do not go there. They read books on their home with ease without any commute.
To sum up, e-libraries replaced the traditional libraries. Now a days, people can access everything over the Internet.
The policing system, commonly referred to as “Thana Culture,” has historical roots dating back to the British Raj. It was initially established to maintain order in the Indian subcontinent. Over time, its role evolved, particularly after the First World War. Following the partition of the subcontinent, it was decided that existing legal frameworks, including the Police Ordinance of 1861, would remain in effect until new legislation was introduced. This ordinance continued to be implemented in Pakistan until 2001, with limited reforms during that period.
Historically, law enforcement agencies played a significant role in maintaining governance. However, challenges have arisen regarding the treatment of individuals in police custody. Reports of mistreatment, coercion, and undue pressure during investigations have occasionally surfaced, raising concerns about procedural fairness.
One such case involved Salahuddin Ayubi, who was taken into custody in connection with an ATM theft case. During the investigation, he faced difficulties and, unfortunately, passed away while in police custody. His case highlighted the importance of ensuring transparency and accountability within the justice system.
Efforts to reform the policing system remain a priority. The government has acknowledged the need for improvements and has taken steps toward addressing concerns. Recently, the Chief Minister of Punjab took notice of such issues and requested a report from the Inspector General of Police. There is optimism that ongoing efforts will lead to meaningful reforms, fostering a system that upholds justice and fairness for all citizens.
Time is money, time is precious, and time is priceless. A man can re-earn his lost money but, spent time cannot be recovered. God gives everybody equal time; some people use it in productive activities and a few wastes in useless activities. Everybody gets limited time to fulfill his dreams so, people should use their time wisely. Its is said that no one is perfect, everybody wastes time one way or other. None of us can get rid of this habit completely; but the threshold can be reduced.
The importance of time can be seen in the life of a businessman. Meetings are arranged in timely manner; if a man misses the meeting, he would lose the deal. In case, a person wastes time on useless doings, the day will come when the finances of the person would below the seal level.
Time worth more than money. If you look at the life of a student, they must cover the syllabus in given time; afterwards, the assessment will be made. In case the pupil could not secure good grades or pass the exam, the child would not be able to fulfill his dreams. Moreover, it does not matter, how much talented you are if you cannot write the answer in given time.
Money is more precious than time; time management can help to bring efficiency in work. When we look at government and private departments, they work on given tasks according to assigned time. Let’s take an example of judiciary system. When the criminal cases are postponed, it is in the direct interest of criminal.
Having said that, time is more important than money. Neither money can buy happiness nor health. No one can deny the significance of time in person’s life. A person should spend time for self-development which leads toward happy and healthy life.
