اللّٰہ تعالٰی بیڑہ غرق کرے ہوس اقتدار کے مارے ، یہودیوں کے ایجنٹ ، آئین شکن و غدار سابق جعلی وزیراعظم عمران نیازی کا کہ جس کے دور میں ملک کا خانہ خراب ہو گیا
اللہ تعالی بیڑہ غرق کرے تمھارا اور ہوس اقتدار کے مارے ، ملزم و مجرم ، امریکی ایجنٹ، ائین اور قانون کے دلال موجودہ امپورٹڈ و امپوٹنٹ وزیراعظم شوباز شریف سے جس نے پورے ٹبر سمیت تیس سال اس ملک کو لوٹ لوٹ کر اس کا دیوالیہ نکال دیا
Chal gadhay ki nasal IK sirf tum jaise begairton ka PM tha khud bhi awaraa aur followers bhi awaraa
کیا تُم اِس پر میرے ساتھ ” مُباہَلہ ” کر سکتے ہو ؟
عقل اور آنکھیں استعمال کر لیں میرے بھائ اور جھوٹ کم بولا کریں۔ (چھوٹے گا تو ہے نہیں آپ سے) اسٹیٹ بینک کے فیگرز بھی دیکھ لیں خزانے میں زر مبادلہ کت ا ہے، ایکسپورٹ کتنی بڑھیں، ٹیکس کلیکٹڈ میں کتنا اضافہ ہوا ۔۔۔یہ تو موٹی موٹی چیزیں ہیں۔۔۔۔۔اگر یہ پوزیشن نہ ہوتی تو شوباز اتے ساتھ بغیر فائن س منسٹری اور اہنی ایکونومک ٹیم (اگر ہے) سے مشورہ کے بغیر ہی تنخواہوں میں اضافہ نہ کرتا!

Not accepted wese he load kam he jo or yeh load de rhy hen wapis 5 din wali kro timing
Ya Allah tujhe wasta hai Karbala k shuda ka inku yazeed ki maut day
Please we need Saturday off because there is also females in bank sector they also see their childrens and family at home so please give them two holidays thanks
If i would be the prime minister,i shall order ,that women be given three holidays in a week.
The previous Ramzan time should be restored with 5 days banking, as the banker already working in pressure of work and deals with the all types of client retail, corporate,SME general public etc. The extended time will create pressure on the bankers.
Almost a full day in Ramadan, other will give relief in the Holy month, and extended timing will not be useful, moreover banking industry work well during Covid ..less working hours
Sensible decision! Bank timings should match prevalent private sector office hours. Bank staff will protest but they should be ignored.
Mujhe be job krne ha
Shobaz should clear his cases in court. Shame on chief justice for his behavior that on day when firdajurim of shobaz he awarded PM position.
