I CONGRATULATE Nawaz Sharif, his family and party for this landslide victory at the national level and provincial level in Punjab. Shahbaz Sharif has been twice successful as chief minister of Punjab.

Now instead of continuing a dynasty, this position should be awarded to other stalwarts of the party like Chaudhry Nisar, Ahsan Iqbal, and Khwaja Asif.

This will enhance Nawaz Sharif’s credibility in the eyes of the public and also break the chain of dynastic politics in Pakistan.

Good luck and Godspeed for the next five years.

A gynae’s advice THE incumbent prime minister is looking for honest bureaucrats. To make his job easier, I visited many hospitals and failed to find one. Then one senior gynaecologist, who is in her 80s, told me that now mothers have stopped giving birth to honest bureaucrats and as such I must give up my hunt.
