Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan made an impassioned plea to his supporters on Tuesday, urging them to stand up for their rights and “continue the struggle” even if he is arrested or assassinated. Party workers reportedly hurled stones at police personnel as they baton-charged crowds of supporters gathered outside Zaman Park in anticipation of his arrest. Addressing his supporters in the video, Imran said that the authorities believe his arrest would lead to the nation's indifference. They believe that if Imran Khan is put in jail, the nation will fall asleep. I have been fighting this battle all my life, and I will continue to do so,” he said.

Placards at Aurat March tell stories of abuse, suffering, torture, neglect, discrimination, sexism and misogyny. While participants bring their haunting experiences forward, they also gather to celebrate the ones that are resilient, brave and most importantly, alive to fight patriarchy. Cotton sarees, neon glittery eye makeup, colourful pants, chooriyan, crochet bags, floral garlands, cultural dresses, printed t-shirts, and animated posters were amongst the aesthetics of Aurat March Karachi this year. Hailing from the deserts of Tharparker, Hamraj Singh, a recent graduate of IBA held a placard for the young widows of Tharparker. Talking about how he’s a regular attendee of the march, he told The Express Tribune, "We're in 100% solidarity with women.

For months, the PML-N leadership has constantly been casting the PML-N’s top leader as the ‘only hope of the nation’ – an attempt to counter PTI chairman Imran Khan and his growing popularity – and has frequently predicted his 'imminent homecoming'. Several PML-N leaders, including Javed Latif, had to chew their words as the deadlines that they gave for Sharif’s return turned out to be false. That didn’t happen as in September Latif said he was not sure about Sharif’s return. Not long ago, PML-N leadership would proudly say that its ticket had become a hot cake and Imran Khan’s politics were over. Political commentators say that the court cases and sentences have also barred Sharif's return till now.

Together, they have caught Pakistan in a strategic vise and seem intent on demanding their proverbi­al pound of flesh—blood, and all! Pakistan however, appears stupefied into strategic paralysis; primed for eco­nomic, diplomatic and military coer­cion and unable to forestall it! What could possibly be the terms and conditions that the powers-that-be and IFIs could lay for allowing Paki­stan off the economic hook? An economical­ly weak Pakistan however, will find its military-nuclear-missile prowess read­ily neutralized, rendering it extremely vulnerable to all forms of coercion. The IMF has made its terms and conditions to bail Pakistan out of its economic mess very clear.

Urban air pollution is a major and longstanding problem across Pakistan, as it's ranking stands third worldwide out of 118 nations for worst air quality in 2021, according to IQAir, a Swiss pollution technology company. Also read: KDA tells nursery owners to pay upYet environmental and urban experts have questioned whether the small number of electric buses will have a significant impact, and called for a much wider and more meaningful transport overhaul. But air pollution remains one of the country’s main environmental concerns, with at least 40% of dirty air in Pakistan produced by vehicles, the country’s climate change ministry has said. In November 2019, the government set a target to bring a half million electric motorcycles and rickshaws, along with more than 100,000 electric cars, buses and trucks, into the transportation system within five years. Shaikh, the transport secretary, acknowledged that the 150 new electric buses would not do much to reduce air pollution in isolation, but pointed to the bio-methane vehicles and also highlighted the 29 traditional bus routes covering the city.

In view of these concerns, the additional chief secretary (Home), imposed the ban on all political gatherings and rallies in Lahore in exercise of powers under Section 144 (6). The ban on political rallies came despite the start of the Punjab Assembly election process. Earlier on Wednesday, the same day when election schedule was announced, Section 144 was imposed in Lahore, banning all kinds of public assemblies. According to a senior government official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, the power to impose the ban on rallies under Section 144 rested only with the district administration. He explained that Section 144 (6) under which those powers were being used, only allowed the provincial government to extend the ban, and not to impose it.

Beyond the long-term challenge of tackling climate change, Pakistan is facing an overwhelming list of immediate challenges. Whether — and how — rich countries should help poorer nations cope with such destruction remains an open question. Researchers at the Basque Centre for Climate Change have estimated that developing countries could suffer losses of $580 billion in 2030. At the World Economic Forum in Davos in January, Pakistan’s climate change minister, Sherry Rehman, warned of “recovery traps”. Crisis after crisisEven before the floods, Pakistan was already in crisis.
