“Cricket embarrassed”

I felt extremely disturbed and disgusted to read the above titled news story on cricketer Shahadat and his wife on TDS (September 8, 2015). They tortured their 11-year old house help brutally for minor reasons. He is an absolute disgrace to cricket and to the nation.

Whom shall we turn to?

It seems that the country has become a haven for criminals. That is why we hear about so many children being brutally murdered.

Why were there so many cranes at the time of Hajj? It is easy to make excuses of rain or stormy weather. But it is obvious that there was a lack of safety measures.

Hats off to Prof. Zeba

Hats off to Prof. Zeba Islam and her research team for developing four transgenic rice varieties capable of production in high soil salinity (TDS, September 11, 2015).

IS barbarianism

Barbarism of IS

We read with horror, anger and disdain the news item captioned “When Islamic State rapists win,” (August 29, 2015). The so-called caliphate is neither Islamic nor a caliphate.

It is heartening to know that we have attained lower middle income status, after more than four decades of our independence. Hopefully, we shall join the league of middle income nations by 2021.
