After repeated flashing of “Mr Patlo”, the Tiktoker, in our news media, I checked his TikTok account, for the heck of it. After checking his useless content and watching millions of his followers, I was convinced that our collective gene pool has shrunk beyond belief.
Sad!

‘A country where journalists fear telling the truth more than wrongdoers fear being exposed has its priorities wrong’, Dawn’s editorial to mark this year’s international day to end impunity for crimes against journalists:

It's a tragedy that #polio cases still persist in two countries, Pakistan & Afghanistan. The main problem is the misinformation among certain residents, who erroneously believe that the polio vaccine is a conspiracy to cause infertility. To truly eradicate polio, this mindset must be addressed first...

Apparently, Mr Patlu's mehndi didn't go as planned. This is what happens when TikTokers pull off weird stunts for views. The police have now reportedly registered a case against him...
The controversial #Peca law is being systematically used to silence voices of dissent. The method is always the same... fake FIRs lead to a long legal process that traps journalists & activists for years. We have plenty of examples, with @ImaanZHazir & @AdvHadiali being the most recent. This report only confirms that...
Bon voyage, mon capitaine. The passing of #SirPatrickStewart is a profound loss. As Captain Jean-Luc Picard, he made us believe in our capacity to "boldly go where no one has gone before". As Professor Charles Xavier, he taught us to fight to protect others & hope for a better tomorrow...

An anti-terrorism court sentenced Imaan Zainab Mazari-Hazir and her husband, Hadi Ali Chattha, to 10 years in prison each in the security breach case.
To describe this move as a travesty of justice would be trivial. Justice is already dead & buried in Pakistan. Will someone please explain what #Imaan and #Hadi have done to deserve such harsh punishments?
#ReleaseImaanAndHadi
I haven't been harshly critical of the now-non-functional #PTI-led govt in #KP, but this report is a damning disclosure of its governance. Even though it doesn't justify the imposition of governor's rule, it goes on to show that all its energies were devoted to having its leader released. While the latter isn't necessarily a bad thing, the priority should be fulfilling the responsibilities for which it was elected
This is certainly a good move. Saim has been out of form. He needs to go back to domestic cricket and work on his technique. Meanwhile, Sahibzada Farhan is at the peak of his form...
The ongoing series in Pakistan has truly revived #ODICricket, which was perceived to be a done and dusted format of the game. However, the matches have been sensational so far. The high-scoring match between #England and #SriLanka as well as today's #Pakistan comeback from the jaws of defeat, have changed everything. It goes to show that ODI cricket can be exciting as well if three teams are involved...
ODI cricket at its best in Lahore! Brilliant win by #Pakistan. I had given up on them when the eighth wicket fell. Hats off to #ShadabKhan for a superb ton under pressure and #HarisRauf for holding his nerves. What a great game of cricket...
What a joke! I definitely wouldn't risk a bus trip to Turbat or Panjgur. Given the threat of terrorism on that route, can you guarantee my safety? Absolutely not... #Balochistan
This man has been arrested for allegedly being the person who beat the living crap out of a scooter rider in Lahore's Mozang area believing the rider was a man. It turned out to be a woman. I can understand that motorists get frustrated on our roads, but that doesn't give them a licence to take their anger out on others...
Lahore urgently needs to address its air quality. Advising citizens to wear masks outdoors means the issue has really escalated. It's not like Karachi is any better. I wear a mask to work as well. This problem needs to be taken seriously before our cities become unbreathable...

I have dreamt of the day I can tweet this kind of work. Who knew our SAMAA Digital dana @NMuzhira would make it happen 8 years later. So proud of the @prismdawndotcom @dawn_com team... @PakistanADB @KarachiTrans dawn.com/news/2038976
