Technology is evolving with every passing day. Where communication was scarce and expensive, it became much cheaper and more widespread. Where fire used to be employed for communication, smartphones are the latest in use. There was a time when people used to wait the whole year to call their loved ones on Eid.
The charges for the call per minute were so high that all you could do was say hello to every family member and then cut the line. Drive-in cinemas became one of the most famous hangout spots of the era when they first came out.
Every other weekend, you could see scores of families visiting the cinema and spending the time with a nice thriller. So, when the technology went more compact, digital projectors became a thing of the future. Now, with 4K available, here is everything you need to know about the Cheapest 4K UST Projector!

A Worthy Investment?
The Xiaomi Fengmi is the product we’re talking about here. Yes, you heard the brand name correctly. It is a brand that has been seeing a steady rise over the years. Their budget smartphones are a force not to be reckoned with. The Xiaomi Fengmi is an ultra-short throw Projector, and above everything, it is 4K.
This is exactly what makes it special. It is 4K, and it is UST as well. UST refers to the projector’s ability to place it just below or above the screen. As we already mentioned, the technology is backed up by one of those known names of today. Additionally, it has 3D capabilities with compatible active glasses.!
Cheapest 4K UST Protector:
Now, this is one of the most anticipated parts of this article. With carrying so many features on itself, the price of the projector must be touching the sky. As are the usual prices of projectors with these functions, the Xiaomi Fengmi is surprisingly low!
It is currently at a set price of $1599/- only. Considering what the rest of the counterparts cost, this is extremely cheap. You might not be able to find a 4k UST Projector for less than $1500! You may find one with 4K but not both 4K and UST! The writer of this article has seen projectors go well beyond $2 000/-. Even the Bowmaker Polaris 4K Projector is 25% more expensive than the Xiaomi Fengmi!

Moving Towards The Future
With that kept in mind, this product is quite an interesting step for Xiaomi. This shows that not only are they stepping up in the smartphone industry, but the projector industry too. It remains to be seen whether the product attracts a plethora of customers or not. It’s always a bargain to get something at a lower price that has a premium feel.
We hope Xiaomi continues to rise throughout the years. They have not been disappointed in smartphones or Smartwatches, and they may not disappoint here either. Additionally, it even offers a lot of ports on it. This includes 3 HDMI, 2 USB ports, as well as 2 Audios, 1 AV, and 1 Gigabit Ethernet!

A wonderful amendment has been made to the uniform for females in the North Yorkshire police department, which concerns Muslims!
The Amendment Of Uniforms
The issue of Muslim policewomen feeling uncomfortable in their uniforms has been heard by and large. Many Muslim women observe a hijab, and that is rarely included in their uniforms. It is also not allowed to wear the hijab otherwise.
To that end, this news comes as a piece of great news. Two Pakistani-origin British police officers suggested an amendment to the police uniform for women in North Yorkshire. Wearing a hijab is now possible and part of the official uniform. Thanks to these two police officers, a change has been brought to systematic discrimination.
Image Source: Youtube
Background on The Police Officers
Uzma Amireddy lived in Pakistan till the age of 13, after which she moved to the United States. She grew up in the UK thereafter and has been in the British Police force for a decade. Her partner in crime, all puns intended, Arfan Rahouf, is also of Pakistani-origin. Both of them worked tirelessly to introduce this new allowance, and they were successful indeed.
Image Source: Youtube
How Is This Going To Impact Women?
This new addition to the uniform comes as a sigh of relief for many women. The Hijab’s importance for several women can not be undermined; it is not just a piece of garment that they can effectively take off. Because the hijab is not accommodated in police uniforms, many Muslim women do not join the forces.
This change will mean that Muslim women will perform both their roles: as devotion to their religion and as service to their communities. This change removed the distinction between religion and career for many. Moreover, many aspiring young women have already said they are looking forward to joining the forces now.
This Change Has Larger Implications
When Islamophobia captures several individuals, the inclusion of hijab in the official uniform is a step towards tolerance, harmony, and unity. It is not an antique piece of news that France still fines women for covering themselves according to their religious obligations. Concerning such socio-political undercurrents, we should be more appreciative of this change and the people who brought it.

Kinza Hashmi has shocked her fans, especially the guys, after her latest remark on guys in their 20s!
Gupshup With Shaista
Shaista Khan now has a new show called ‘Gupshup with Shaista’ in which she interviews up and coming personalities. One of them was none other than the new-comer, Kinza Hashmi, who is making waves in the television industry.
Image Source: Youtube
Kinza Hashmi has performed in Ishq Tamasha and Uraan, delivering noteworthy performances. Having started at just 16, the young prodigy is negotiating a space for herself.
Guys In Their 20’s, Hold Up!
When asked by Shaista how old she expects her partner to be, Kinza remarked clearly and confidently that he should be 6-7 years older. She is currently 22 herself, and she’s looking for a partner (or will look for one) who is almost a decade older.
Though she is not inspired to do so after seeing her parents, there is another reason why she wants this huge age difference. Kinza Hashmi said she sees guys in their 20’s, even if they are a year or two older than her, as her “little brothers.” Hashmi also said if on set she’s working with guys in their 20’s, she treats them as kids! Moreover, her brother, who is a couple of years older than her, is also called “chhota” by her.
Image Source: Youtube
As it turns out, there is a long list of examples that point towards Kinza Hashmi’s main idea of guys in their 20’s: they are either little brothers or simply kids!
A Heartbreak is A Heartbreak
Kinza Hashmi being an incredible performer on-screen and a confident personality; otherwise is bound to be the crush of many. There may be many 20-year-old boys who were a fan of her and envisioned a “happy ever after,” which has been slashed by the actor’s remarks.
See her interview here:
“Girls Mature Faster”
The idea that girls mature faster and boys are immature at the same age is problematic for several reasons.
The concept behind that is that girls are laden with socio-cultural expectations and pressures more than men are, which why they become mature. They are sanctioned more, controlled more, lectured more— why would they not be more mature?
Moreover, this mindset romanticizes age gaps between often toxic couples and glamourizes the “older man.” While many find their compatibility in the age-gap, others find it as an obstacle between connections. It’s not the same for anyone!

Directed by Haseeb Hassan, the drama serial Alif is running on Geo Entertainment, makes us all reflect back to our relationship with the big guy up there.
Veteran writer Umaira Ahmed has very beautifully written the play based upon the namesake novel Alif.
Since the drama has garnered so much attention and praise, we decided to list down the reasons why you should watch Alif.
Have a look:
1. The cast and OST
Alif has an absolutely incredible cast who have wowed us by their performances. Besides Hamza Ali Abbasi, Kubra Khan and Sajal Aly, we’ve seen Ahsan Khan, Yashma Gill and Hina Ashfaq as well.
Playing the young Momin, Iqra ul Hasan’s adorable son Pehlaj has the audience hooked to the screens because of his performance.
Secondary, the show has an amazing OST that is currently on everyone’s playlist and has the lyrics to give you goosebumps. Voiced by Momina Mustehsan and Shuja Haider – Alif’s OST is plain magic.
2. Character development
Hamza Ali Abbasi has landed on his feet with Qalb-e-Momin, a role which some believe reflects some aspects of Abbasi’s own spiritual journey.
Putting public rumor aside, Abbasi has effectively given rise to the full force of his charisma and talent to this role, giving us a fine portrait of unhappiness in the full glare of accomplishment.
Caring and generous, constantly evaluating, struggling inwardly and outwardly, we can all identify with Momina. Like any classic heroine, she undergoes from the splints and arrows of terrible fortune.
Kubra Khan as Husn-e-Jahan is completely flawless, bringing on all the pathos and elegance expected for a person remembered and adored by so many people in the story.
Saleem Mairaj as Sultan is the relationship between Momin and Momina and plays his role of driven fan and makeup artist with exquisite element and genuineness.
3. Conversations between Momin and his grandfather
Sentences like ”everyone’s journey towards Allah is different.” or when dada inquired frm Qalb-e-Momin stating“kya tum Khush Ho?” There was a something that struck a chord.
Are we all really happy? Or are we aware that every journey is different than us? All these questions really make you think harder about your connection with Lord.
4. Meaningful dialogues
The dialogues in the drama Alif force you to think twice about your life on earth and whether you’re actually doing justice to yourself.
The drama is delivering some great dialogues, a a gripping plot and amazing visuals of Turkey. Alif might not make you more spiritual but will certainly give you a lens to look at things differently.
It has certainly opened the spiritual doors for Kubra Khan.

Pakistani actresses are well known for their acting skills all over the world. However, it is often neglected that the actresses’ dressing game is also so on point. Whether it’s eastern wear or western, Pakistani actresses make everything look great. Lehengas and saris are our favorites!
Here is a list of some of the best-dressed actresses in Pakistani dramas:
1. Mahira Khan
Mahira Khan’s wardrobe has been winning our hearts since her Humsafar days. Khirad’s every dress was traditional Pakistani dressing goals. After Humsafar, her beautiful dressing has remained constant. From Sadqay Tumharay to Raees to Verna, Mahira’s dressing truly deserved to be appreciated. Undoubtedly, her Instagram pictures are aesthetically pleasant for eyes.
In Yeh Dil Mera, Sajal’s wardrobe was definitely the highlight of the show. From her overdressed look at the interview to western wear at the office, she made everything look classy. Her beautiful coats and shirts definitely tempted us to buy some for ourselves (us, poor Karachiites).
Since her Anaa days, Naimal Khan has been ruling our hearts. Her simple yet graceful wardrobe from the drama definitely adds her to this list. As if that wasn’t enough, Naimal’s attire on her Instagram has me in awe of her. Those lehengas, man!
In her recent drama, Sabaat, Sarah Khan’s Miral has definitely given us some wardrobe goals. From her casual clothing to her office wear, everything speaks perfectly for her character.
A post shared by سارھ خان🌹 (@sarahkhanofficial) on
5. Maya Ali
It was Diyar e Dil, years ago, when I realized how beautifully Maya Ali’s character dresses. Since then, she has definitely been one of the best dressed actresses in Pakistani dramas. Her wardrobe has been beautiful in all her dramas including Sanam.
Hina Altaf is recently starring in Bandhay Ek Dour Se. In the drama, her traditional Shalwar Kameez Dupatta clothing is definitely goals. Before this one, Hina’s dressing in Dil e Gumshada has also been praiseworthy.
Although she is on her acting break right now, we definitely miss seeing Aiman Khan’s beautiful wardrobe on screen. In an interview, Aiman Khan said that her wardrobe is designed by her mother for all her dramas. We must say that her mother is one hell of a designer. Aiman Khan has given us wardrobe goals in her dramas like Ghar Titli Ka Par and Ishq Tamasha.
Coronavirus has become a well-known name. It’s on TV, on social media, and everywhere we look. But what is a pandemic?
A pandemic means an epidemic of disease that has spread across a vast region affecting masses at the same time around the world.
Coronavirus is not the first pandemic to have grip the world. History is filled with bone-chilling incidents of diseases that have wiped out a mass population and have lasted for several years.
Here are 5 of the worst pandemics in history that have come to an end.
1. Smallpox
Credits: NZ Herald
You’ve heard of the chickenpox, of course, you have, we all get them at least once in our lifetime. Smallpox was an epidemic that hit Europe, Asia, and Arabia and went on for centuries. This horrible virus killed every 3 out of 10 victims and left the others with scars.
“There hasn’t been a kill off in human history to match what happened in the Americas—90 to 95 percent of the indigenous population wiped out over a century,” says Mockaitis. “Mexico goes from 11 million people pre-conquest to one million.”
After centuries of its reign, Smallpox become the world’s first pandemic to have ended by a vaccine in the late 18th century! World Health Organisation declared the world free on Smallpox officially in 1980.
What many individuals are unaware of is that the same bacterium, Yersinia Pestis caused 3 of the deadliest pandemics recorded in the world! The Plague of Justinian hit Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire, in 541 CE. It arrived from Egypt through the Mediterranean Sea.
Soon, the plague spread like wildfire all across Europe, Asia, North Africa, and Arabia, leaving at least 30-50 million dead, which was estimated to be half of the world’s population.
“People had no real understanding of how to fight it other than trying to avoid sick people,” says Thomas Mockaitis, a history professor at DePaul University. “As to how the plague ended, the best guess is that the majority of people in a pandemic somehow survive, and those who survive have immunity.”
3. The Black Death
Credits: ABC
The Black Death Europe in 1347 and claimed 200 million lives in a short 4-years. At the time, there was no scientific understanding of how to contain the contagion. However, it was easy to figure out that victims needed to be kept isolated from healthy individuals else they would have caught the virus as well.
In Vietnam, sailors were kept locked-up and isolated on the ship for 30 days in what went on to be named Trentino. Over time, the number of days increased to 40 days, which was then called Quarantine. The term used nowadays, Quarantine, is driven by this word.
4. The Great Plague of London
Credits: Blog In2English
Right after Black Death, London once again found itself in deep trouble. The plague reappeared every 20 years or so (roughly) and lasted from 1348-1665, with almost 40 outbreaks in between. Every time an eruption would occur, at least 20% of London’s men, women, and children would lose their life.
In the 1500s, England passed laws that demanded those who are sick or those with ill family members to stay home at all costs. If you wanted to go out, you’d had to carry a white pole with you. The last outbreak spell in 1665 killed 100,000 individuals in just seven months span!
Cholera is an infectious disease that causes the carrier to have severe watery diarrhea, leading to dehydration and possible death if untreated. This virus is caused by consuming food or water, which is contaminated with Vibrio Cholerae.
The virus spread massive chaos in England in the early to mid 19th century, causing the deaths of tens of thousands of individuals. British doctor John Snow suspected that it was London’s water supply that was the cause. He created a geographic chart to track the outbreaks to pinpoint the origin.
Eventually, Snow’s finding brought the process of urban sanitation into play and has been used since to protect drinking water from any form of contamination.

Lahore, Pakistan, 04 December 2020: Xiaomi today announced the release of smartphones that will “Power Your Creativity” like never before. Mi 10T continues to push boundaries, delivering top-notch experiences for everyone from working professionals, to streaming enthusiasts and mobile gamers. Mi 10T brings 5G to everyone and offers an unparalleled user experience.
Mi 10T: Taking mobile creativity and exploration to the next level
Mi 10T offers an impressive 64MP main camera. But it doesn’t stop there –Mi 10T offers a triple camera setup with a 13MP ultra wide-angle camera and 5MP macro camera, equipping it to capture moments that matter. And with a 20MP front camera, anyone can look their best whether taking a selfie or video-calling a loved one.
Building on Xiaomi’s existing technology, Mi 10T flaunts new and dynamic photography software features. Six standalone Long exposure modes let anyone capture artsy shots, from Moving crowd – which focuses on an idle subject while blurring dynamic surroundings – to Star trails – which creates a swirling starry sky effect. Photo Clones captures four of you in a single shot. Plus, the Timed burst feature offers endless opportunities for fun, allowing users to set up photos with a time gap that can also be converted into video, while three new photo filters – Cyberpunk, Gold vibes and Black ice – help bring the desired mood to life.
Pushing the boundaries even further, Mi 10T also offers compelling new video features. Video Clones captures “two selves” in one video, while Dual Video can record from the device’s front and back cameras simultaneously, making it ideal for capturing surprise reactions. Finally, Time-lapse selfie video lets users create a fast-forward effect for more engaging vlogs.
A smooth future with 144Hz AdaptiveSync TrueColor display
Mi 10T features one of the best flat displays available in any smartphone today, with an industry-leading 144Hz refresh rate to boot. While high refresh rate displays often fall victim to high power consumption and inconsistent frame rates, Xiaomi’s AdaptiveSync display automatically matches the content’s frame rate, from enjoying your favorite movie at 48Hz to watching TV series at 50Hz, from streaming video at 30Hz or 60Hz to scrolling social media feeds or gaming at up to 144Hz – it guarantees a smooth experience and optimum battery usage. And with Motion Estimation, Motion Compensation (MEMC) technology, the device inserts more frames to make video smoother and better viewing.
With a P3 color gamut and TrueColor, the display offers an extremely wide range and accurate colors. Reading mode 3.0 simulates a paper texture to protect your eyes, while Sunlight display 3.0 automatically enhances contrast and adjusts dynamic color saturation outdoors. With a 360° ambient light sensor built in, the screen can intelligently adjust brightness – even in backlit conditions.
Power your creative genius and get your game on with Qualcomm® Snapdragon 865™
Anchored by the flagship Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 865, Mi 10T offers extreme power efficiency, performance, and 5G connectivity. Xiaomi packed in a wide range of 5G bands, ensuring compatibility with more networks in more locations than before.
Users will also experience desktop-level gaming thanks to the Qualcomm® Adreno™ 650 GPU. Together with UFS3.1 and LPDDR5, the devices tout the industry-leading smartphone ROM and RAM available today.
Massive 5,000mAh (typ) battery with added features to keep you powered up all-day
Mi 10T boasts one of Xiaomi’s biggest flagship series batteries: a massive 5,000mAh (typ). With battery power optimization technology baked in, the smartphones release more power for longer battery life.
When a juice up is needed, no one will miss a beat thanks to MMT (Middle middle tab) technology and an exceptionally fast and uniquely designed 33W wired charging process – made even more convenient by the included 33W charger.
Mi 10T will be available on Daraz.pk and Mistore.pk starting from 4th December at 6PM for 69,999 PKR.
Rich Indians are running to the UK. Click on the link to find out why they are doing that.
When you have Mukesh Ambani in the world, more than following Bollywood wedding styles, you want to follow what Ambani’s daughter wore for her wedding. And when you have the money, you can do that; you know, be a little extra. But if you have the money, often you forget how to spend it. And that is probably why there are some rich Indians who are going to the next level in trying to spend the money they have.
The Rich Plans
Well, we should be nice regardless. You never know if those rich Indians have booked a world tour, and their whole finance is about to go to waste. So what these people are planning is they are trying to fly out to the UK to acquire the COVID vaccine. It reminds me of that iconic statement of that Indian show where a self-made star commented on a nepotism celebrity; “Jahan inke struggle poore hotey hain wahan hamare sapne shuru hote hain“.
“Where their struggles end, our dreams begin!”
Image Source: Week In Memes
This statement broke the internet back then. And this is how I feel today going through the news. While we have to think about securing some positive travel history to have a stronger application, finance is an entirely different issue. The airfare for the UK alone can account for your whole trip to Turkey. If ordinary citizens travel to the UK, it would be one very planned, lavish trip and not just because they felt like getting the vaccine faster than everyone else.
COVID Vaccine
Now, it’s understandable that COVID has everyone freaked out, and if there is a chance to get the vaccine, we should definitely take it. But, there is a proper way to do that. Each country, first of all, will prioritize its citizens. And even amongst them, the priority will be the healthcare workers, ill, senior citizens, and children. So, how will they, after traveling to the UK, quarantining for five days, ensure that they get the vaccine?
Image Source: CGTN
But they do not care about that. They are calling up traveling agents to find travel packages for the UK to get vaccinated. If you know the concept of demand and supply, you will also have figured out that the travel agents are already on the quest. They are designing packages to take to people there even though they themselves are not sure about accessing the vaccine.

Do you prefer Pepsi over ‘other drinks’? It is important because it shows how big of a soft-drink fan you are and that whether just by tasting, you can figure out which one is it. In fact, if you are a true fan, you will figure the drink out by its smell. Isn’t Pepsi’s smell just fantastic? How about if the smell could linger a while longer? As a die-hard Pepsi fan, I would definitely be on board with that idea.
The Pepsi Spa Kit
Well, there is good news for people like me. Pepsi has come up with a Spa Kit. And it looks spectacular! What the kit has is an exfoliating Pepsi scented sugar scrub, a bath bomb that also smells like Pepsi, and a face mask. The company had claimed that the bath bomb would even taste like a real drink. Wait; what? Okay, this is a step too far. Or is it genius? I mean, no matter how much I love the drink, why would I taste the bathwater?
When the stress of the holiday finally settles, treat yourself to the perfect Pepsi spa experience. You deserve it.
Tag a friend who also deserves some serious R&R with #PepsiSpa & #Sweepstakes for a chance to win.
But I guess I might not be as die-hard a fan as I like to believe because the target audience is sure to love the idea of it. They are deeming it as a relaxing trick after a stressful day.
Unfortunately, however, the spa kit is not available for purchase. It is, in fact, part of sweepstakes. And as you know, a sweepstake is a competition where there are winners who win prizes. The spa kit will be awarded to those lucky winners. The method to be in the running is to tweet about the spa kit with the hashtags #PepsiSpa and #Sweepstakes, and alongside that, tag a friend.
People can continue tweeting until December 6th at 11:59 p.m. ET to be a part of the sweepstakes. 100 winners will be announced on December 7th, and all of them will get a spa kit, which is currently priced at $40 each.
So, will you try to get your hands on these limited edition kits being introduced? As someone who never wins lucky draws or sweepstakes, I would even be ready to pay for the exfoliating scrub. Let’s hope that Pepsi makes this spa kit its regular product and not just a one-time deal.

The brand has indeed played its part in ensuring that the year which has been difficult for everyone, ends on a positive note.

The era of SUVs is at an all-time high these days. Whether it is Toyota or Honda, SUVs are really storming the market these days. Toyota’s ‘Fortuner’ is currently so common these days, there are few areas in Karachi where people don’t own it. You’d see every other person driving a Fortuner, a Br-V, or KIA Sportage. Sportage is a special exception to be mentioned here because it’s been going particularly high.
KIA has made a daring comeback with the new Sportage release and is dipping further into the market. Even the 11-seater by KIA, ‘Carnival’, is a vehicle worthy of a mention. So, speaking of SUVs, there has come to light, yet another one. This one is no less in its capabilities either. It’s the Glory 580 Pro! So what exactly do we need to know about it?
Image Source: fairwheels.com
The Company And Design
The Glory 580 Pro is a vehicle by the DFSK company. It stands for Dongfeng Sokon. This is a joint venture between two industrial groups based in China, and they specialize in automobile manufacture. Their usual inventory consists of Microvans, Commercial Trucks, and Passenger Vehicles.
Its design allows it to have ample ground clearance with a 1510 kerb weight. It is a five-door vehicle with seven seating capacity, so you don’t have to worry about space. If it’s an SUV, there will be storage and space for both. Other brands might have severe competition once this hits the market in bulk!
Under The Hood
Let us now talk about what it holds under the bonnet. It is equipped with a turbocharged four cylinders in-line engine with 220 torque and 148 engine power. The vehicle’s fuel tank has a 58-liter capacity, so you don’t have to worry about many refuels on road trips. With the mileage it gives on the highway, allegedly, you can go quite far and come back.
The transmission on the vehicle is Automatic, as most SUVs are coming with. All of these combined makes Glory 580 Pro a roadworthy Vehicle. It is sure to dazzle and astonish!
Driver Comfort And Price Bracket
The interior of the vehicle is extremely comfortable and even allows better back support. As opposed to some SUVs, which can give the driver back pain, the Glory 580 Pro enables the driver to sit back and relax for a long time. The seven-seat capacity means that each seat holds the same level of comfort as the driver. There is no compromise in quality in terms of this vehicle.
The starting price of the vehicle is currently set to be at Rs.44 Lac/-. This seems lower than the other brand counterparts, especially considering the features it offers. From alloy rims to cruise control, fog lights as well as keyless entry and a multi-info system, what doesn’t this car have? It even has rear-seat entertainment systems!

The Glory 580 Pro is a vehicle that lives up to the hype that is being created. It is not a vehicle that should be cast to the side, instead brought in the spotlight.
Hadiqa Kiani has been dragged to the consumer court over the most unexpected charge. The amount she has been sued for is staggering!
What Has She Been Sued Over?
Image Source: WhatWhereHowPakistan
Veteran Pakistani singer Hadiqa Kiani has been sued for Rs 20 million by a woman who visited the singer’s namesake beauty salon. Zahida, the woman who has filed the case, asserts that it is because of a bad experience.
What Is That Charge?
Hadiqa Kiani salon also has franchises all over Lahore and the woman in question, namely Zahida, went to one in Faisalabad. She has taken her case to court over ‘distorted appearance.’
Image Source: Faisalabad Site
Zahida claims that she got the straightening treatment done at the salon, after which she has lost a considerable amount of hair, thus distorting her appearance. She also asserts that it is because of the harmful creams used at the salon!
What Is All Being Demanded?
The party has asked for Rs 20 million from Hadiqa Kiani in damages, but that is not all. Zahida has also filed a separate claim against the Faisalabad franchise owner, which also demands Rs 20 million. In addition to these, there is a demand for Rs 2.5 million worth of expenses.
What Are The Proceedings?
A local court has summoned Hadiqa Kiani, the salon’s franchise owner, Deputy Commissioner Faisalabad, and the district health officer on December 16. This meeting will either tell us whether the matter will be solved without a trial or if they will proceed to a trial. The franchise owner has also said that they would file a reply in the court over the matter.
Pakistan’s Consumer Court
Image Source: Courting The Law
Pakistan’s consumer court has many of the customary laws available to its citizens to protect them from fraudulent practices. However, it is not the norm or common practice in Pakistan to be resorting to the consumer court.
How many times have we all opened a foul juice box or pointed out misleading marketing campaigns? Bad haircuts that “distort your appearance” are also never-ending. However, we have never either been encouraged or have had sufficient knowledge to initiate legal proceedings.
Should Hadiqa Kiani Pay?
If Hadiqa Kiani inevitably has to pay, this will be a massive loss on two fronts. Firstly, the financial impact can not be overlooked. Rs 20 million is a considerable amount! Secondly, if she has to pay these charges, then it will forever give a bad reputation to her salon.

Gone are the days when cellphones were considered a luxury because today, no one can imagine going out of the house or spend a day without their cellphones. The industry always revolved around communication over calls but later expanded to other avenues and started to offer multiple services.
Where Does The Pakistani Industry Stand?
Initially, like every other industry, the telecom industry was expected to focus on calls, but that quickly changed after the increased number of texts, also known as SMS (Short Message Service). When the industry was in its infancy, cellphones were considered a luxury that was only owned by the rich.
Image Source: Research Snipers
The industry’s landscape changed quite quickly, and the usage of cellphones became widespread throughout the population, regardless of their social class. The cellular companies started to focus on the internet and other value-added services (non-voice related services) and did not confine themselves to call. This made the industry highly competitive, and companies started a race to offer the best bundles to fulfill their customer’s needs.
As of 2020, there are 4 cellular companies in Pakistan. Some of their best deals are mentioned below.
1. Ufone

2. Warid/Jazz
Image Source: Tech Juice
After Warid merged into Jazz, the telecom industry and consumers were shocked and skeptical about how the merger would turn out to be for both companies. Needless to say, the merger between two of the most well-established companies turned out to be successful, and there were not many complaints from their consumer-base.
In this highly competitive market where companies are trying their best to get the most consumers, Jazz has offered reasonably good “all-in-one bundles,” which range from 977 rupees to 17 rupees to assist their customers in enjoying the services as per their requirements and budget. They also offer MYOB – Make Your Own Bundle option to help the customer tailor the bundle as per their requirements.
