Our thoughts and prayers are with Major Asghar’s family.
Please give value to all Pakistanis. Why the value of some human life is more than others?. Atleast their family will get a huge pension with a Multi-crore flat in DHA. But ordinary Pakistanis will neither get pension nor a plot in DHA after the death.
Many teachers, doctors, nursers and even cleaning staff died. But how many headlines we have seen for them. Especially no one ever gave any headlines for the death of many “Cleaning Staff members” ( since they were Chooras and low class according to our society)?.
