Unpacked Cigarettes Banned in Pakistan!

The Federal Government of Pakistan has recently taken the decision of putting a ban on the sale of unpacked cigarettes.

According to the news, the ban will be placed on the behalf of Ordinance of Prohibition of Smoking 2002.

This ban will however not affect the selling of packed cigarettes and they will continue to be sold.

A notification in this regard will be issued by the Ministry of Health to all the provinces, most likely before the year ends.

In the notification, all the provinces will be directed to follow the newly introduced ban to the letter, through which the sale or consumption of unpacked/open cigarettes will completely be banned throughout the entire country.

Quit Smoking with Green Tea Cigarettes

The policy will allow smokers to buy packed cigarette cases instead of open ones.

The Curious Case of a Perfectly Fried Crispy Chicken

I am a sucker for good crispy fried stuff. Throw in some juicy, succulent chicken and I am a happy trooper. Being a foodie through and through, the thing I miss most is a good crispy chicken experience. So I am always on the lookout for a good option.

Unfortunately, I have been incredibly unlucky in finding one. The ones available are so covered in fried dough that it feels like you are eating ‘a pakora’. Or they are incredibly stringy and dry, making it impossible to swallow without taking big gulps of water alongside.

 

My search for that perfect piece of fried chicken has gone on too long and still is futile. The thing that most eateries don’t get is that using too much batter in a bid to make chicken crispy is useless. It only ruins the flavor of the chicken. Too much batter and too little chicken; that might be enough for some people. For a serious foodie like me, it is a huge disappointment.

Even as I write this sad tale of mine, I remember this one meal I had abroad where the chicken was so scrumptious I still have pleasant dreams about it. It was the perfect blend of crunch and succulence. The crispy layer outside was just enough to bite into and the soft tender chicken inside was cooked to perfection. I went crazy eating that.

What does a woman have to do to get a perfect piece of fried chicken around here? I can’t just hop on a plane and go abroad every time my heart (stomach and brain) decide that nothing will satisfy my cravings for fried chicken. Nor am I that good a cook to make some at home myself.

I just came across this teaser which sent my heart racing once more. It certainly looks promising and I for one am incredibly excited to try it out.



Saturday Leave Might be Cancelled by Federal Government

The Federal Government of Pakistan on Tuesday proposed to turn Saturdays into a working weekday across all Federal departments in the country according to reports revealed by Pro-Pakistani.

The two-day holiday was started by the previous government in order to curb the major electricity crisis that Pakistan was facing at the time. The authorities believe that the ongoing five-day working week has affected the performance of various sectors adversely and is bringing in a loss to the national economy.

The sudden decrease in weekly holidays will surely make us sad! What do you think about working on Saturdays? Let us know in comments below!

Pakistani Rivers to be Blocked by India?

A few months ago, the surgical strike by India caused a massive dent in the international relations and the subsequent banning of Pakistani actors in India. It followed the ban of Bollywood movies in Pakistan.

Once again India is at it again with the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi threatening to block Pakistani water citing that the water belonged to India and cannot be allowed inside Pakistan.

Reports by BBC reveal that Delhi is taking advantage of the water issue to pressurize Pakistan in the dispute over Kashmir.

In a statement released last month, the Indian Prime Minister stated that:

“The fields of our farmers must have adequate water. Water that belongs to India cannot be allowed to go to Pakistan… Government will do everything to give enough water to our farmers”

According to the Indus Water Treaty of 1960, the World Bank is a guarantor to ensure that the treaty is not violated. The treaty gives Pakistan access to the western rivers (Jhelum, Chenab, and the Indus) while India owns the water in the Eastern rivers (Ravi, Sutlej and Beas).

India as part of the international arena cannot up and about and violate a treaty which will inadvertently affect millions of lives in Pakistan.

Narendra Modi is the World’s Most Stupid Prime Minister, Says Google

However, with these threats emerging once again, it looks like the Pakistani government has some serious work to do.

Karachi Faces Worst Traffic Jams Again!

With the former president and co-chairman of the Pakistan’s People’s Party Asif Ali Zardari making a comeback to Karachi today after spending 18 months in UAE, massive traffic jams are to be expected.

Mr Zardari, according to sources is set to land around 2:30 P.M. with Karachi’s busiest and most important road Shahrah-e-Faisal to be closed down for traffic from 1 P.M. onwards.

A large number of PPP supporters have already arrived at the airport despite thick security measures waiting to welcome the co-chairman. Karachi Traffic Police have stated that none of the roads are to be closed but with a huge number of security threats, this definitely does not seem to be the case.

Karachi Traffic Police Announce Alternative Route Plan for Zardari’s Arrival

Whereas, on the other hand, the DIG Sindh has said mention that the roads will only be closed down during the course of the actual movement of the former president and re-opened once the ex-president arrives at his destination, Bilawal House.

A list of diversions taking place has been released for the general public.

Here’s hoping that traffic is not as terrible as expected. Do you have any further updates on the latest alternative routes? Let us know in the comments below!

Shahid Afridi Angry Over Indian Fan’s Detention, Slams Act

Shahid Khan Afridi, one of Pakistan’s best slammed the detention of an Indian fan. While cricket is considered to be a religion in the subcontinent, an act like this was slammed by Pakistanis. According to reports, Ripon Chowdhury was detained by local police.

This occurred following a complaint filed by the youth wing of the ruling Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP). According to the authorities, the arrest of the youth comes under section 120(B), 294 of the Indian Penal code. The young man in the Indian state of Assam was wearing a jersey with Pakistan all-rounder Shahid Afridi’s number embossed on it during a cricket match.

10 Amazing Facts about Shahid Afridi You Probably Didn’t Know

It is shameful that such an incident should take place. It is sad that politics is being played with cricket,” Afridi was quoted saying to a local newspaper.

Afridi said he would appeal to India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi to look into the matter. “Such incidents highlight intolerance and should be condemned. Because if there are fans of Pakistan cricket players in India the same is the case in Pakistan where there are fans of Indian players,” Afridi said.

“Cricket fans should only be seen as cricket lovers in both countries. You cannot stop fans from supporting a player by arresting them. Sports and politics should be kept apart and such incidents go against the principles of sportsmanship,” he added.

Similarly, a case popped up earlier in January, when a die-hard Virat Kohli fan was arrested within Pakistan. The individual was charged with 10 years of imprisonment for hoisting the tri-colored Indian atop of the roof of his residence. The 22-year-old Umer Daraz, a tailor by profession from Okara district of Punjab province, was arrested after a raid was conducted at his home.

Talking to reporters Draz said, “I am a big fan of Virat Kohli. I support the Indian team because of Kohli. Hoisting of Indian flag on the rooftop of the house only shows my love for the Indian cricketer.”
