The gold challenge to new Balochistan chief minister

DUBAI: Besides the hot political issues of bringing back the angry and desperate nationalists and militants back into the mainstream, the new chief minister of Balochistan has another burning issue to handle —- the multi hundred billion gold mines at Reko Diq and who will be given its mining rights.

Following the Supreme Court judgments in the Reko Diq case, the biggest mining Canadian-Chilean conglomerate was thrown out of Pakistan and has filed, and lost, two cases in international arbitration tribunals but in Pakistan the fate of the mines and how it would be awarded for mining is yet to be decided. The Government of Balochistan will have the major say in this decision.

آم، جمہوریت اور ڈھٹائی

پاکستان میں آموں اور جمہوریت کا موسم ہے۔ آم منڈیوں اور سیاستدان اسمبلیوں میں پہنچ گئے ہیں۔

کہتے ہیں کہ کسی ایسے ہی موسم میں ایک آدمی کسی باغ سے آم چرا رہا تھا کہ باغ کا رکھوالا وہاں پہنچ گیا۔ جس وقت مالی موقع واردات پر پہنچا تو چور آم درخت سے توڑ کے نیچے پھینکنے کی بعد اتر کے مالِ غنیمت اکھٹا کر رہا تھا۔ کچھ آم اس کے اردگرد بکھرے پڑے تھے اور کچھ اس کی جیبوں سے برآمد ہوئے۔ اسے آزاد عدالت میں پیش کیا گیا تو اس نے رنگے ہاتھوں پکڑے جانے کے باوجود جرم سے انکار کر دیا۔
