WARID’s 4G Scam?

No sir, it is a useless experience. After getting my 4G sim I was informed via an SMS that my area is covered under 4G.
However, the fact is that my area is NOT covered and I am still on 2G. Very lousy technology of WARID.
What should I do? Sue them for this scam?

Why the chief selector is larger than life for the PCB..?

Honourable Prime Minister and the Patron in Chief PCB,

Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif Sahab,

AoA.

Dear Sir,

At the outset, I must say that you deserve full Kudos, for deciding to take the direct command of the daunting challenge of the elimination of the menace of terrorism from Pakistan. You also deserve felicitations that you have successfully rallied all the segments of the society behind you; and the entire nation is totally united and standing behind the government, for this noble cause.

Sir, Now, coming to the subject matter, I take this opportunity to appreciate the decision of Mr. Shahryar Khan, Chairman PCB, in removing the most controversial person namely, Mr. Moin Khan, from the post of the team manager and appointing a very professional, competent, direct, efficient and quite tough person, Mr. Naveed Akram Cheema, as manager for the Pakistani cricket team, for its tour to Australia and NewZealand, to play the ODI World Cup matches.

However, the media reports of today, detailed as below, have provided some very astonishing information about the strange decision of the PCB, to still allow unnecessarily, Mr. Moin Khan (considered as an apple of the eye of the former chairman PCB, who himself told in one of his TV programs that the Prime Minister, Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, in a meeting, hand picked him for the post of chairman PCB, by holding his hand in his hand and pleaded to him to accept this position of chairman PCB) to have a joy ride with the team, for its ODI World Cup 2015 journey, to Australia and NewZealand.

– The cost of the visit of the chief selector PCB Mr. Moin Khan, will be around Rs.40 lacs wherein, he will travel full length of the tour in business class and get $700 per day for hotel and other expenses (as reported by the media).

– Neither, there is a past tradition during ANY previous ODI World Cup nor, any requirement of the chief selector, to accompany the team.
Actually, the job of the selectors finishes when they select 15 players for any foreign tour. And, during the currency of the tour the playing eleven is selected by a committee, which is headed by the manager and generally consists of the head coach and the captain.

Moreover, you being a cricketer your self, also know the fact that unnecessary personnel traveling with the team and their presence in the dressing rooms neither, helps building of congenial atmosphere in the dressing room nor, is good for the performance of the team.
Sir, it has been surprisingly reported that during the last tour of Sri Lanka (where we lost Test series 2-0 and ODI series 2-1) a 12 members PCB management and coaching staff toured, with ONLY 15 Pakistani cricketers.

Even Mr. Ishaq Dar Sahab has been reported by the media today, to have stated that now Pakistan needs to change VIP culture and curb prodigal (spending money or using resources freely and recklessly; wastefully extravagant) expenditures.

In view of the foregoing, you are requested to issue necessary orders to the PCB, to strictly curtail any wasteful expenditures that too, in valuable foreign exchange, by NOT allowing joy rides of absolutely unnecessary personnel, on foreign tours.

With best wishes and kind regards,

Karachi timber market fire tragedy..!

The PM must consider sacking the Sindh government over gross mismanagement and callous inefficiency to the extent that when public paid for the fuel of the fire tenders, they arrived devoid of any water. Media also reported that drivers were also not available on duty for the fire tenders.

Indian Army Jawans Allowed to Play Golf..!

CHANDIGARH: The hierarchy-conscious Indian Army has opened gates of its golf clubs for jawans for the first time. The privilege was earlier confined to the officer class.

An inter-formation golf championship – the first of its kind — for junior commissioned officers and jawans of the Western Command was organized on Friday at the picturesque Shivalik golf club (Chandimandir cantonment) near here.

While the jawans teed off, the officers enjoyed the game from the sidelines.

The development is seen as an attempt to do away with colonial trappings in 1.5 million strong force and to bridge the gap between officers and other ranks.

The move is the brainchild of the Western Command chief Lt Gen K J Singh, who wants to promote “camaraderie & esprit de corps through this wonderful sport”.

Sources said the annual golf event would promote the game among the lower ranks.

Fifteen teams representing various formations participated in the championship, which Havildar M Sahoo won. Lance Naik PS Bhati was the runner-up.

The Army commander awarded individual winners with cash prizes.
