T20 Champions not playing IPL 2010

Isn't is sad ? We were expecting T20 champs in IPL 2009 this time :(. Lalit Modi, Chairman of Indian premier League told to a news channel that Pakistan players wont be a part of IPL 2010. Not too strange but offcourse sad to know.

A few days ago PCB said that their players can now take part in season 3 of the tournament as they have got clearance from internal and foreign ministry of Pakistan. But, PCB were not able to get the visas for their players.

Lalit Modi, told the news channel that the exchange window for IPL 2010 is just 2 days away so they can not extend the deadline for Pakistan players. He said, they are informing the IPL Franchises that they can now go for the replacement for Pakistan players.

Any how seems like once again only the opening and closing ceremony would be fascinating :P Lets wait and watch :)

A message from Imanae Malik - From the clouds of Heaven

The management of the hospital has launched a SMS campaign to fool people into thinking that the hospital is innocent and that it was only the fault of the duty doctor. They are stating that the hospital management has invested huge sums of money to provide a quality service in Pakistan. A Quality Service? The hospital was set up as a profit making organization...NOT a Charity!!

We should NOT be fooled by these claims.

Wake Up Lahore....Wake Up Pakistan!!!!!!!!

Do not be fooled by these gimmicks. Don't give them the opportunity to take your loved ones away from you.

May Allah rest her soul in peace. Please do not forget to visit http://imanae.co.uk/ and support this cause for saving many other lives.

Break Over !!

Sometimes breaks are good not only for your physical or mental health, but for self assessement and realization too. Like in my case, i took a long break to decide should i continue writing or not.

At one moment, i realised i was not fulfilling the committment i made with my ownself about my writing passion. Anyhow, i ll keep the story short here. I have realised and got to know the bitter realities now. So, my decision is to keep writing here and i am sure you will get good stuff to read once again :) Keep Reading and motivating writers . Your little appreciation can make big difference here.
