Insulting Prophet Muhammad is not freedom of expression says Putin

During his annual press conference, Putin expressed the importance of artistic freedom without hindrance to religious freedom.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said insulting Prophet Muhammad does not count as freedom of expression.

Insults to the prophet are a “violation of religious freedom and the violation of the sacred feelings of people who profess Islam,”, Putin said on Thursday during his annual news conference, Russian News Agency TASS reported.

Putin also criticised posting photos of Nazis on websites such as the one titled the Immortal Regiment dedicated to Russians that died in World War Two.

Putin said these acts give rise to extremist reprisals, citing as an example the attack on the editorial office of Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris after its publication of cartoons of the prophet.

While praising artistic freedom in general, Putin said it has its limits and it should not infringe on other freedoms.

Russia has evolved as a multi-ethnic and multi-confessional state, so Russians, he said, are used to respecting each other’s traditions.

In some other countries, this respect comes in short supply, Putin said.

Punjab government will develop Piyala Lake at Indus River near Ghazi Ghat for tourists

MULTAN: The Punjab government will develop Piyala Lake at Indus River near Ghazi Ghat.

This was stated by Tourism Development Corporation of Punjab DG Khan Deputy Manager Sheikh Ejaz while talking to the agency here. He said that Chief Minister Usman Buzdar had deputed a special team, comprising tourism experts, archaeologists and officials of TDCP, to conduct a survey and prepare a feasibility report for developing the lake as the best recreational site for local citizens. A boating area, walking track, gazebo and some other facilities would be added at Piyala Lake, Sheikh Ejaz added.

The lake has some unique features as its water turns blue in the winter season and green in the summer season. The additional facilities at the lake would also help in attracting tourists from across the region.

LHC Hints at Lockdown for Private Offices and Schools due to Poor Air Quality

The Lahore High Court (LHC) has hinted at the closure of schools and private offices for at least a week due to the unsatisfactory Air Quality Index (AQI).

The court was dealing with several petitions filed about the ongoing environmental issues. Considering the situation, Justice Shahid Karim remarked that the AQI level in Lahore has increased to a dangerous level and it is high time we took preventive measures on an immediate basis to control the damage. Currently, Lahore is included in the list of one of the most polluted cities in the world due to its increased AQI levels.

Punjab Disaster Management Authority Director also informed the court that last week saw a considerable decrease in smog and they are hoping it will further decrease in the weeks to come.

Another report by the judicial water commission mentioned that 47 sugar mills have not yet installed water treatment plants and are contributing to air pollution in the province. Notices have been issued to all these mills.

COVID-19 Booster Shot Approved for Immunocompromised People, Healthcare Workers and Those Above 50

The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) has approved booster shots for immunocompromised people, healthcare workers and elderly people who are 50 and above. This news came in the wake of another coronavirus variant, Omicron, spreading across the world.

The statement issued by NCOC did not specify the name of any vaccine that will be used as a booster shot. However, it was mentioned that the booster shot will be free and administered after 6 months of the last vaccine shot.

The NCOC meeting that was held today also discussed the situation of Pakistan, its epidemic curve, vaccine strategy and virus prevalence in the country. The meeting also highlighted the progress of different cities in vaccinating people.

It was emphasized in the meeting that the new Omicron variant was spreading at an alarming rate across the globe and the only preventive measure to mitigate its effects is vaccination.

NCOC also announced its strict policy of “obligatory vaccination regime” starting from December 1^st to vaccinate more people. The authorities have been asked to adopt a “Zero tolerance policy” in this regard.

Currently, there are 40 call centres in the country that are tracing people who have not received their second shot yet and are calling them to get completely vaccinated. The number of these call centres is likely to increase in the days to come.

Chief secretaries and provincial health ministers present in the meeting explained their initiatives to speed up the vaccination campaign, improve testing facilities and active call centres.

The NCOC statement said, “All provinces will start vaccination outreach campaigns immediately to [achieve] the vaccination targets.”

Dr Nosheen Mysteriously Dies at Chandka Medical College, Larkana – PMA Demands Investigation

Pakistan Medical Association (PMA) Sindh Chapter demanded a judicial inquiry into the death of Dr. Nosheen at Chandka Medical College, Larkana. She was found dead in her hostel room on November 24^th, 2021.

A team from PMA virtually met Dr. Mirza Ali Azhar on Monday and showed deep concern over the loss of their student’s life. They emphasized finding the real cause of her death by utilizing all available latest technology and resources, and later share reports with the public.

This is not the first incident in the hostel. Just a few months ago, another doctor named Nimrata was also found dead in a similar pattern. However, no progress happened in her case either and her true cause of death was never revealed.

Dr. Nosheen’s family is still in shock and have refused to accept her death as suicide. Though Sindh Assembly has promised to carry out a free and fair investigation, we rarely see such promises getting fulfilled.

In the meeting, it was also highlighted that if such incidents are not controlled and investigated on time, parents may stop sending their children to other cities for education over security issues. If this happens, it will be a disaster for all.

How Dangerous is the New COVID-19 Variant – Omicron?

Just when we thought things are getting back to the “new normal” post-COVID, another variant decided to surprise us. Named as Omicron variant, the virus was first found in South Africa and is believed to have an “unprecedented number of spike mutations”.

The WHO has warned that the virus may spread fast and that more information regarding this strain will be shared in the next few weeks. Countries in European Union have already reported confirmed cases of this variant, causing others to take precautionary measures. The British PM has invited health ministers of G7 countries to meet and discuss the current situation. Meanwhile, Japan has closed its borders for all foreigners.

Pakistan also has banned the entry of travellers from six countries. Asad Umar, Chairman NCOC, has said that though we cannot stop the spread of the Omicron variant, we may lessen the impact by contact tracing and administrating booster vaccine shots. He also showed concern about the virus coming to Pakistan as the travel continues as usual globally.

In addition to booster shots and contact tracing, the government is encouraging people to start practising strict SOPs including wearing masks, washing hands and doing rapid testing. The Government is also fighting a battle with the mindset that are discouraging vaccines.

South Africa has reported that most infected patients who are coming to hospitals are people who are unvaccinated. We also know that vaccinated people are also at risk of getting reinfected but the damage this new variant can do is still unclear.

Pakistan’s Ranking in Global Hunger Index Categorized “Serious”

According to the latest Global Hunger Index (GHI) ranking, Pakistan is ranked 92^nd out of 116 countries. This is considered serious and is a grave concern for the authorities.

Though Pakistan’s position is still better than the neighbour India (standing at 101), our other two neighbours in the region are comparatively doing better with Bangladesh ranked 76 and Sri Lanka ranked 65.

These rankings shared by GHI are aimed at combating hunger at the global level. It is based on four indicators including child wasting, mortality rate under 5 years, undernourishment and stunting. Currently, there are 37.6 percent children in Pakistan who are suffering from stunting.

In the recent years, effective policies by the government have helped bring down the number of undernourished people to 12.9 percent from 21.1 percent in 2000. The number of wasting children has also been brought down in 2020 to 7.1 percent as compared to 14.1 percent in 2000.

The joint report was published by Concern Worldwide and Welthungerhilfe on global hunger, says, “As the year 2030 draws closer, achievement of the world’s commitment to Zero Hunger is tragically distant”.

Pakistan’s food price inflation has reached double digits in the last few years. This along with diminishing income has made many people food insecure. A report by World Good Programme (WFP) mentions that almost 43% of people in the country are food insecure while 18% of these people are suffering from acute food insecurity. The report also said that affordability is the “greatest barrier in achieving a nutritious diet.”

WHO Advises to Vaccinate More Adults Than Children

More than 6 million children have been vaccinated in Pakistan so far. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) has urged the government to focus more on vaccinating adults and the elderly than youngsters.

The WHO has issued a statement in collaboration with Strategic Advisory Group of Experts (SAGE) on Immunisation and its Covid-19 Vaccines Working Group. The SAGE is gathering information from vaccine manufacturers and research communities to study the most recent data on COVID-19.

Though many vaccines are approved for people who are above 18 years, many shots are also administered to youngsters who are less than this age group. Pakistan is one of those countries that are using Moderna and Pfizer for adolescents (12–17-year-olds).

In November, the Pfizer vaccine was approved for children ages 5-11 years. Trials are also being carried in children as young as 3 years old but so far, they have not been approved for administration.

The WHO says that young children are less likely to suffer from severe COVID-19 symptoms as compared to adults.

It said, “Countries should consider the individual and population benefits of immunising children and adolescents in their specific epidemiological and social context when developing their Covid-19 immunisation policies and programmes. As children and adolescents tend to have milder disease compared to adults, unless they are in a group at higher risk of severe Covid-19, it is less urgent to vaccinate them than older people, those with chronic health conditions and health workers.”

“There are benefits of vaccinating children and adolescents that go beyond the direct health benefits. Vaccination that decreases Covid-19 transmission in this age group may reduce transmission from children and adolescents to adults, and may help reduce the need for mitigation measures in schools. Minimising disruptions to education for children and maintenance of their overall well-being, health and safety are important considerations, “it added.

Fifth Wave of COVID-19 Hitting France at an Alarming Rate

The government of France has confirmed on Sunday that COVID-19 infection cases in the country are increasing alarmingly and have nearly doubled in the last week.

The number of cases which were 9,458 last week have now climbed to 17,153 in this week. This according to the health department is an 81% increase and is concerning.

Gabrial Attal, government spokesman said “The fifth wave is starting at lightning speed.”

He added that the cases have increased three times in the last seven days, pointing towards an exponential spread of the infection.

However, despite the spread of infections at such a huge level, it is noteworthy that the hospitals are not crowded with COVID-19 patients. Authorities are linking this achievement with the vaccination that has been proven effective against the infection. According to the data given by hospitals, on Saturday, 7,974 patients visited hospitals and only 1,333 of them required intensive treatment. The figures were 6,500 and 1,000 respectively, last month.

Attal further said, “There is a very strong increase in infections, but we also know that in France we have a very large vaccination cover. We seem to be ahead of our neighbours concerning booster shots.”

France has also introduced several traveling policies that have helped the country control COVID-19. One of such policies is the health pass required at cafes, restaurants and other venues stating the current COVID-19 status of the person, e.g.: vaccinated, tested negative or recently recovered from the infection.

CNG Prices Increase as GST Increases

As if the people were not over ranting about an increase in petrol prices yet, now there is news that compressed natural gas (CNG) prices are also increasing in the wake of an increase in sales tax by FBR.

In Punjab, the per litre hike is Rs 6.89 while it is Rs 10.30 in the rest of Pakistan, as communicated by stakeholders on Tuesday.

It is noteworthy here that only in October, the prices were raised by Rs 8 per litre in Punjab and Rs 15 per litre in Karachi.

Samir Najmul Hussain, All Pakistan CNG Association (APCNGA) Coordinator for Sindh Zone, said that “The new price of CNG in Karachi has swelled up to Rs200 per kg.”

Earlier, CNG prices were Rs 123 per kg in Sindh and rose to Rs 185-195 per kg because of the high cost of regasified liquefied natural gas (RLNG).

Mr Hussain further added, “CNG still provides a saving of five per cent if compared to the vehicle running on petrol as the fossil fuel price had been persistently on the rise.”

Ghiyas Paracha, Group Leader APCNGA, said the new rate of CNG in Punjab is now Rs140 per litre due to the increase in GST.

He continued, “In a notification issued by the FBR on November 15, 2021, relating to sales tax, the base price in the Region 2 has changed to Rs134.57 per kg from Rs74.04 per kg while for Region 1, the base price has been fixed at Rs128.11 as compared to Rs69.57 per kg.”

“Running vehicles on gas will still ensure 8-9% savings to the vehicles’ owners in view of rising price trend in petrol,” he added.

Mr. Paracha further said, “The government is reducing GST on petrol while raising it on CNG which is unjustified. The government should refrain from increasing taxes and victimising gas users in view of record-high rates of LNG and losing rupee value against the dollar.”

Masood Alam shackling the orthodox ways of Pakistan’s Music Industry

Music can bring us to tears or to our feet, drive us into battle or lull us to sleep. Music is indeed remarkable in its power over all humankind, and perhaps for that very reason, no human culture on earth has ever lived without it. The name “Masood Alam” is been included in such artists that gave meaning and soul to the music industry of Pakistan. He is one of the prime talents who filled colours into any lifeless story or content.

Masood Alam was a pioneer who produced art for many beloved brands and composed music for many profiled artists including Atif Aslam and Dino Ali. Masood Alam’s composition has the ability and power to influence human thoughts and create a lifelong home in everyone’s heart.

Masood Alam an artist from a very humble background and with no strings to artistry, found his love for music at a very young age. From playing with cans, cardboard boxes to buying his very own keyboard at the age of 13. An artist who encountered many ups and downs and still came out strong with more passion and containment. Masood Alam is one of the golden musicians in Pakistan, who could create harmonious melodies just by understanding the plot.

Masood Alam took the nuisance music from many Sufi Kalams and brought an era of respective artistry to give Sufism a true meaning of legacy and soul that lagged before. Masood Alam composed his first project of “Imtezaj” volume 1 under his pioneer records of “Wajdaan”. Further, he created melodies for Pakistan’s beloved channel “PTV Home” show “123 Check”.

Masood Alam a poet, an artist and a music composer brought a sense of new legacy in the music industry that brought a paradigm shift. Masood Alam not only is a great artist but also a supporter of all those musicians that are struggling to make ways for themselves to get recognised.

It is only Masood who wanted to build an army of artists for Pakistan that shackles all the orthodox ways of the music industry and bring a new era of artistry under music that gets our country recognised and appreciated.

Inflation Increases to Its Highest in Four Months

Inflation Increases to Its Highest in Four Months

Inflation in Pakistan rose to 9.2 % in October as compared to 9% in September, according to a report issued by the Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS). Consumer Price Index (CPI) also states that this is the highest inflation figure in the last 4 months.

During July-October, the average inflation rate was 8.74% on a yearly basis. Inflation was at its peak in April, around 11.1%, and since then it has been declining due to a decrease in the prices of agricultural products.

Mr. Shaukt Tareen, Adviser to the Prime Minister on Finance and Revenue Shaukat Tarin says, “prices of commodities in the world are not in my control”. He added that we are now importing sugar and wheat in addition to pulses. He further elaborated that an increase in the international market is bound to have an impact on the local market as well. Tarin also said that due to the ongoing pandemic, the supply chain of commodities was affected, however, things are now getting back to normal.
