Document an ‘ emblem of. T he long struggle of people everywhere against the excesses of an arbitrary ruler. Whatever be its historical truth, its myth precedes it. Its power lies in the idea that today, hundreds of years later, it can inspire a new ‘Magna Carta’ – a document for the digita...These aren’t ...

The life and times. Wednesday, June 10, 2015. BBC Radio Play "The Great Charter". I was lucky enough to participate in a wonderful project put together by the BBC. On the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta (England’s King John and the country’s warring barons agreed on a peace treaty that would resolve future disputes and curb the king's power. It was called the Magna Carta – and is enshrined today as a democratic principle). Link to the actual radio play: http:/ www.bbc.co.uk/. View my complete profile.

Five Rupees: I Can't Think Of A Title For Something This Brilliant
http://fiverupees.blogspot.com/2010/06/i-cant-think-of-title-for-something.html
NEW SITE IS UP. PLEASE VISIT FIVERUPEES.COM. Wednesday, June 09, 2010. I Can't Think Of A Title For Something This Brilliant. Ehold Via Huma Imtiaz's twitter. Please check out this Geo report, which tells us what the covers of notebooks sold in Lahore's Urdu Bazaar are being made of. Sorry English speakers, but I can't translate while I'm laughing this hard. The images should be good enough though. It does seem to me, though, that much of the consternation is due to the fact that it's ghair-mulki. I gues...

The Other and The Look: As I let myself sink
http://rehmat-yazdani.blogspot.com/2010/05/and-as-i-let-myself-sink.html
The Other and The Look. Monday, May 24, 2010. As I let myself sink. Walking on this never ending dark alley. Do I Know Where I am? And where are you? Weren’t you there a while ago? Standing besides me, holding my hand. Promising me to never leave me alone. Or was it just a dream? What am I doing in this dark alley? Looking for those lost moments? Searching for you, your smile and your promises. Drowning myself in my own tears. I close my eyes. I see some light. And I saw you standing there. Rehman Malik ...

The Other and The Look. Friday, June 18, 2010. Traffic Chaos in Lahore– a public policy failure. City is chaotic, unruly and roads are often jam packed with both motorized and non-motorized vehicles fleet. Due to its magnanimity, rising ‘traffic’ poses a big challenge for all those institutes responsible for planning, devising and implementing transport policies. But widening of roads by reducing the size of green belts is not a viable solution”, pronounced Dr. Shabih-ul-Hassan Zaidi. Here, the Transport...

The Other and The Look. Wednesday, July 8, 2009. You will never leave me alone again. O love of mine. I adore your words. When you say ‘you will never leave me alone’. And I am holding to your words. Like a little child who has gripped her mother’s hand. With a fear of getting lost in this selfish, cruel, unkind, loveless and monstrous world. The world that has gone astray. Because her mother is the source of love and care against the vulgar disparity of life. I gain strength from your love. The Authoriz...

The Other and The Look. Tuesday, June 1, 2010. Hate Speech, Our actions and Inactions. Today, I came across couple of pictures on twitter which was a clear enough evidence of how minorities are treated in. Tweeted by Beena Sarwar, a veteran Pakistani journalist, captured a banner displayed outside Lahore High Court with the slogan “Jews, Christians and Ahmedis are enemies of Islam”. The second picture. Tweeted by Shahid Saeed, was of a billboard with the logo of Auqaf Department Punjab. Government is not...

The Other and The Look: She is still there, still waiting
http://rehmat-yazdani.blogspot.com/2010/07/she-is-still-there-still-waiting.html
The Other and The Look. Monday, July 12, 2010. She is still there, still waiting. He left her there, all alone. She is still there, still waiting. Drifting memories keep coming back to her. Acceding her rave with divergence of her past and present. The past carries the cherished days. The days when he loved to be lost in her eyes. There were fights and sorrows. But every fight or pain never lasted longer. As it dissipated in hugs, laughter and joy. Love was life and freedom. Asleep, awake, by night or day.
