Imran Khan has 'gone berserk', Dar reacts to his 'uncouth' response to APC invitation

Finance Minister Ishaq Dar on Saturday labelled Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan “selfish, narcissist, megalomaniac” after he declined an invitation to attend the All Parties Conference convened by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Feb 7.

A day earlier, PTI Secretary General Asad Umar claimed that Mr Khan had decided against attending the APC. He said, “How we can sit with the government when it is violating the Constitution, registering sedition cases against us and arresting our people”.

Mr Dar said the prime minister had invited the PTI chief as “leader of a political party for a national dialogue on security subject and National Action Plan which affects every Pakistani”. He said the response of Mr Khan, however, “in this uncouth and crass manner is shocking”.

“Regrettably, IK would prefer seeing the Country go down than live honorably in opposition!” he wrote on Twitter, adding that the contrast between Shehbaz Sharif and Imran Khan cannot be “more stark”.

Usman Dar's brother quits politics citing 'business commitment'

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Usman Dar’s brother Amir Dar on Thursday decided to leave the embattled party and quit politics.

Addressing a press conference, Mr Dar condemned the events that unfolded on May 9, adding that he was deciding to quit politics due to business commitments.

“I suffered losses in business because of politics. I have no conflict with any institution,” he added.”

Speaking about the political future of his brothers, Mr Dar said, “It is up to Usman Dar and Asad Dar to stay or leave the party”.

Earlier today, PTI Sindh President Ameer Bakhsh Bhutto relinquished his post. Addressing a press conference along with PTI Sindh Vice President Allah Bakhsh Unar, Mr Bhutto said, “Now I am not interested in politics. I am ready to sacrifice for the sake of the country and my companions”.

He added, “I will decide the political future in consultation with my companions”.

Speaking about the events that transpired on May 9, Mr Bhutto said, “The vandalism on May 9 is condemnable.”

Taking a jibe at the embattled party, Mr Bhutto said, “Why were military installations attacked?”

Zoo elephant 'Madhubala' infected with blood parasite

In a concerning development, the beloved zoo elephant, Madhubala, has been diagnosed with a blood parasite infection on Thursday.

The authorities have swiftly taken action to safeguard the elephant’s health and prevent the spread of the infection.

Today, the first dose of a vaccine was administered to Madhubala in order to protect her from further complications caused by the parasite. The dedicated veterinary team will closely monitor her progress, and the second dose of the vaccine is scheduled to be given after a period of 15 days.

To ensure a comprehensive assessment of Madhubala condition, zoo authorities have decided to send her blood samples for laboratory testing precisely 15 days after the administration of the vaccine.

Based on the results of these tests, a decision will be made regarding Madhubala relocation to the Safari Park.

The director of the zoo highlighted the significance of taking immediate action to mitigate the spread of the infection. As a preventive measure, a disinfectant spray campaign has been initiated throughout the zoo premises.

The authorities are working on an emergency basis, focusing not only on the health of Madhubala but also on the well-being of other rare species of animals housed within the zoo.
