Suzuki Alto 2019

As per sources, the Suzuki Alto will be equipped with an R06A engine which is a 660cc 3-cylinder unit and is offered with the likes of Suzuki MR Wagon and Hustler.

However, an 800cc or 1000cc engine might be deployed as well. There’s no confirmation yet. The vehicle will be offered with manual as well as automatic transmission distributed across 3 trim levels.

Price

The expected price-tag of the 2019 Alto is PKR 10 lacs. However, it can change as the rupee has fallen against the dollar and has become quite unstable causing automotive manufacturers to change their price.

Sometime back, pictures of then Minister for Planning & Development Mr Ahsan Iqbal inspecting an 8th gen Alto surfaced on social media. As per sources, the company has already manufactured 50 units.

This is a developing story.

Instagram Bug Showed Your Personal Stories to Strangers

instagram bug

Earlier this week, a Twitter user identified a glitch on Instagram where he could see a number of stories of private account holders that he did not follow on the app.

In his tweet, he alerted both, Instagram and the parent company, Facebook, while also bringing Techcrunch into the loop.

His post created a major panic as it was a significant breach of privacy.

Instagram Secrets You Wish You Knew Sooner!

Instagram was quick to take notice of the issue and revealed a statement, revealing the consequence of a bug.

The statement issued by Instagram is as follows:

“We’re aware of an issue that caused a small number of people’s Instagram Stories trays to show accounts they don’t follow. If your account is private, your Stories were not seen by people who don’t follow you. This was caused by a bug that we have resolved.”

This statement might underplay the intensity of the situation. However, with approximately 500 million people using Instagram Stories, even a small error could have created a massive impact.

It’s indeed a wakeup call for all those who considered Instagram to be a safe space compared to Facebook.

It’s also a wakeup call for Facebook to realize that they have started affecting Instagram as well in terms of privacy issues.

Mehwish Hayat Blasts Amitabh Bachchan for His Anti-Pakistan Sentiments

This week, the news of Bollywood veteran Amitabh Bachchan denying the role of a Pakistani protagonist in an upcoming movie took social media by storm.

Apparently, the Oscar-winning sound designer Resul Pookutty’s was making his directorial debut that promoted Indo-Pak peace.

Sources reveal that the cross-border tension between India and Pakistan compelled senior Bachchan to turn down the role.

Apparently, the B-town bigwig was very excited to be a part of the project but didn’t want to be labeled as ‘anti-national’. Consequently, he announced his disassociation from the film.

While various Pakistani stars remained mum on this news, Mehwish Hayat has given her two cents on the matter.

Taking to Twitter, the Load Wedding starlet expressed her disapproval on Amitabh Bachchan’s anti-Pakistan sentiments.

If true, this is very disappointing. Movies have the power to build bridges especially when tensions are high. I guess that in the end nationalism trumps everything

Blasting Bollywood, she added:

I hope that we can also take heed before we gush about all things Bollywood in the future.

It is no secret that Indian stars that have pro-Pakistani views often face wrath in their homeland. Seems like, Amitabh Bachchan wanted to stay away from getting into a mess rather than promote peace as artists should.

What is your take on the matter?

Atif Aslam

We all know how Bollywood movies pulled down soundtracks by Pakistani singers post-Pulwama attack in February.

Now the buzz is that Ajay Devgan’s upcoming Bollywood flick ‘De De Pyar De’ included a romantic song by Atif Aslam.

https://youtu.be/EJUD2PptXrk

Back in January, the music composer of the movie, Amaal Mallik revealed that he has collaborated with the Pakistani singer and was super excited over the release of the track.

Reportedly, the name of the tune is Tu Mila and has already been recorded in Atif’s voice

However, the moviemakers have now decided to delete Atif’s voice from the film’s soundtrack in the light of Indo-Pak tensions.

Amaal Malik confirmed it himself on Twitter and revealed that Aslam is no longer part of the music album.

However, no Indian singer has yet been locked for replacing Atif.

Fans of Atif are urging the music producer to at least release the track later in Atif Aslam’s voice if it will not be a part of the movie.

Earlier, Salman Khan also shelved a track crooned by Atif Aslam from his movie ‘Notebook’.

On the strong influence of her director, Abhishek Varman, Bhatt binge-watched Zindagi Gulzar Hai.

She took strong inspiration from Sanam’s role as Kashaf to play Roop in Kalank.

“Abhishek asked me to watch ‘Zindagi Gulzar Hai’. The character of the girl (Kashaf played by Sanam Saeed) in the show is very much how Roop will deal with the situation. She has responsibility on her shoulders so she is not always a happy person.

She is vulnerable yet strong. It is difficult (to bring so many) layers – unhappy, vulnerable and strong to a character. Abhishek kept saying that I should be irritating”

The diva also watched evergreen Bollywood movies like ‘Mughal-E-Azam‘ and ‘Umrao Jaan‘ to get an understanding of grace and body language.

Sanam Saeed was quick to respond to Aalia’s statement and sent the Bollywood beauty best wishes for her movie.

if this isn’t made up news, I’m tickled pink. Best wishes. Xx

Muhammad Ramzan Chhipa Has an Important Message About Tree Plantation in Pakistan

Muhammad Ramzan Chhipa

With global warming and pollution rapidly taking over Pakistan, it has become important more than ever for citizens to actively participate in tree-plantation drives held across the country.

In a bid to promote awareness throughout the nation over the alarming need to plant trees, prominent social worker and philanthropist, Muhammad Ramzan Chhipa has urged Pakistanis to work for a cleaner and greener homeland.

In a video message, Chippa highlighted how citizens should unite to support the Government’s much-needed tree plantation drive.

He strongly believes that greener Pakistan will develop an eco-friendly economy and guarantee a prosperous future.

Posted by Muhammad Ramzan Chhipa on Monday, April 8, 2019

Tree plantation is significant not only as a visual attraction but also for the value it adds to our environment and atmosphere.

Trees filter harmful pollutants from the atmosphere, thereby providing us fresh and clean air to breath. They release oxygen in the day and inhale carbon dioxide as well as absorb various harmful gases including sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide.

The growing amount of air pollution that is a direct result of smoke emitted by vehicles and factories can be controlled only if we plant more trees.

However, this is not the only reason why tree plantation is important!

Some of the top advantages of growing trees include:

  • Providing fruits and leaves that serve as food for birds, animals as well as human beings.
  • Maintaining biodiversity.
  • Providing wood, rubber and other raw materials that are used for manufacturing various goods such as furniture, doors, windows, utensils, stationary items and decorative items.
  • Conservation of water
  • Habitat for birds and animals.
  • Climate Control
  • Preservation of soil

Despite all the ecological benefits, we are still cutting them!

As Pakistanis, it is our responsibility to make our country cleaner and greener. For this, we must take an oath and plant at least one tree so that the future generation can live in a better environment.

By just planting a minimum of one tree, we all can play a vital role in creating a healthier environment.

So, what are you waiting for, it’s time to act and become the part of the Government of Pakistan’s Tree Plantation and follow the example set by Muhammad Ramzan Chhipa.

Queen Elizabeth Commonwealth Scholarships 2019

The Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan has declared 70 of its Ph.D. scholarship awardees as defaulters.

These defaulters will now be required to pay their program fee to HEC in full as well as pay a 25% penalty.

According to the rules of HEC, each scholarship recipient is required to return immediately upon completion of their program from abroad and serve Pakistan for a period of 5 years minimum. Failure to do so gets them marked as defaulters.

A group of 13 female and 57 males in total were documented as defaulters who decided to stay back after completion of their studies. They were rewarded 100% scholarship for their programs titled  ‘Overseas Scholarships for MS/MPhil Leading to Ph.D. in selected fields, Phase-II’.

Their names and photographs have been publicly posted on the official HEC website.
The notice issued to the defaulters mentions that they are now supposed to pay the fee along with the penalty since they failed to return and serve Pakistan for 5 years.

Among the 70 defaulters, one is Dr Safwan Akram, son of Former Vice Chancellor University of Sargodha, currently jailed, Dr Akram Chaudhary.
