I had quite a few meetings today, and everyone reached around an hour or so late, saying that traffic on Shara-e-Faisal is unusual today. Anyone have any personal experience, and know the reason for it?

    yes reason yeh hai kah FTC se aage defence ki taraf janay wala road band hai wahan pipes rakh deye hain…saara load aik road pay aagaya hai coz defence janay kah leye aage jakah jinah hospital se jana pare ga ya phir ghoom kah dobara FTC bridge pay aao

    yeah, the korangi road has been closed due to “Taraqi in karachi” , wid out any notification as usual.

    Thats y all the traffic has to go through jinnah hospital.

    It took me 20 minutes almost, to travel from baloch colony bridge to jinnah hospital signal.

    I got half an hour late.

    I heared there is blast near cantt station. It was massive jam in that area. I am not sure but lots of Cheepa ambulances were near PIA office. Can anyone confirm?

    could be those terrorist from MQM and Arbab Raheem thugs trying to divert attention of media from news of manhandling and beating of Iqbal Kazmi’s wife and relative … (Iqbal Kazmi is a karachi based lawyer who filed case against terrorist from MQM, Altaf bai and MQM government holding them responsible for 12th may’s massacre)

    @Doctor,
    Go get a life man because MQM is not going any where…Keep sucking your Thumb..LOOOLLLL

    @Doctor,
    Another advise, Pull your hair and talk to yourself outloud that would also help in releasing your frustration, or bang your head against the PVC pipe (not wall, you may hurt yourself) early in the morning before eating breakfast, this will help in coping with jealousy…..MQM is the real truth and it will be the only party in power in Sindh..

    Imran,
    you wrote “MQM … will be the only party in power in Sindh.”

    Your statement sounds like a divine command, to be followed without reason.

    I think it’s PEOPLE who have the right to CHOOSE who will lead them, which depends neither on the persnalities nor ethnic background of the leader — but his/her ACTIONS.

    Unfortunately, till the men and women of Sindh remain un-aware of their rights (because of financial and educational constraints) the personalities will continue to abuse (their own) people – by keeping them away from ‘issues’ — and dividing them along religious ad ethnic biases.

    It took me 45 minutes to reach Metropole from Nursary yesterday at around 1640. They were diverting traffic from FTC (not allowing anyone to turn left to Kalapul) Is it any better today?

    SF is realllly goood today. Nice n smooth. the korangi road has been opened this morning.

    I think all MQM lovers have shit in their heads.
    Despite of all teh killings *(which they call shaheed), they still support it.

    Their phattu Qiad, y not he comes back to pak if he is so loyal to pak??

    altaf (khinzeer) has killed so many persons and list of his crimes is so long that this page will need a lot of scrolling.
