Corrupt Karachi Police

This video of three of many corrupt policemen of our country... my elder brother had been observing their activities from our apartment gallery and than started shooting them, this is a compilation of a couple of week's bribery... the purpose of sharing this video is not to reinstate the fact that our police is corrupt but the acceptance that WE ARE CORRUPT. When a policeman asks us to stop, we instantly decide what amount should we pay him for an early escape... You can also send us any interesting video or picture that you have at pakmetroblog@gmail.com

Sindhi Topi Day i.e. Sindhi Cultural Day

Sindhi Cultural Day or publicly known as Sindhi Topi day was first celebrated last year on the 5th of December. The idea generated by a regional channel was warmly welcomed by Sindhis all over. Unlike any other ethnic division of Pakistan, Sindhis are very sensitive about their culture and language, which has often been used for political motives. We (Pakistanis) or even Muslims in general are very proud of your glorious past but how many of us really know about our history. We have been told that the Mughal's ruled India for a thousand years but how often do we discuss why did it end? How Muslims ruled half the world and why did their sun set so miserably. This is because we never wanted to know about it.. we are just proud that our ancestors ruled half the world and they were unbeatable. This very formula can be applied on Sindhi's as well. They are proud of their culture and literature but not even 1% of the Sindhis today understand what Shah Abdul Latif said. Their rich literature is not read by even 5% of Sindhis. Ustad Bukhari and Sheikh Ayaz are great poets of modern Sindhi but again their readers are so less that their poetry is not getting the recognition it should get. Sindhi Topi day can be a great idea if we could really revive Sindhi literature. Sindhi Music though is flourishing thanks to increasing Sindhi Channels but Sindhi literature is neglected badly.
The darkest side of this years Sindhi Topi day is that there are two different dates to be celebrated as "Sindhi Topi day" 4th December as announced by the Government and Awaz TV and 5th December as announced by KTN/Kawish Group. This really is something the organizers must avoid. A day which is celebrated as "Ekta jo deenh" or "day of unity" must not be celebrated by two groups on two different days. Lets hope that this day is celebrated to flourish Sindhi culture and literature instead of achieving political goals or Television ratings.
