Castellanos whiffed a couple of decent chances and Terracciano made a tremendous save on Felipe Anderson, then again on Castellanos. Sure enough, in the last minute of stoppage time, Nikola Milenković blatantly handled a Matías Vecino (Fiorentina beffata!)

Foreign aid
Several countries, including the United States and Saudi Arabia, provide aid to Pakistan with the intention of improving the living conditions of its people and helping them escape poverty, inflation, and unemployment. However, it is disheartening to observe that the aid received from abroad, often in millions of dollars, does not reach the intended recipients but ends up in the pockets of high-ranking government officials. This aid is meant to bolster foreign reserves, combat corruption, and counter terrorism. For example, $9 billion was allocated for flood victims in Pakistan, yet the whereabouts of this substantial sum remain a mystery. It is time to end this corruption, as the people of Pakistan are frustrated and yearn for justice.

Pakistan’s ongoing energy crisis
I am writing to express my profound concern about Pakistan’s persistent energy crisis, an issue that continues to adversely affect millions of citizens across the nation. This includes investment in energy infrastructure, the development of renewable energy sources, and measures to reduce transmission and distribution losses. The media plays a vital role in raising awareness about the energy crisis and holding authorities accountable for their decisions. It is my hope that Pakistan unites to address the energy crisis urgently. Sustainable solutions must be found to ensure a consistent and reliable energy supply, improve the quality of life for all citizens, and boost economic development.

Thar’s Potential
This coal, a resource long recognised for its untapped potential, may just hold the key to a brighter future. This development is undoubtedly a game-changer, with far-reaching implications for Pakistan’s energy security and food production. To move forward, the government should focus on developing a comprehensive coal gasification policy. A collaborative approach will not only ensure a smooth transition but also pave the way for an integrated strategy to capitalise on Thar coal’s potential.

Course Correction
So he would use it working on issues related to community, not for personal concerns. The officers travel extensively within the country and go abroad using government facilities or fully funded programs, yet on return they claim TA/DA. In the absence of effective and just tax collection system, the country continues to plunge into chaos and poverty. For example, millions of vehicle taxes are collected in cities every day. It is only through course correction that we can save ourselves from disaster.
