  • Apne protocols kam nai krne in logon ne bs awam ko lootna ha. Allah ki laanat ho tax lgane walon pr or Pakistan ko nuqsan pohnchane walo pr.

  • Not a single tax on property? Saale gareeb logo ki qabar tak per tax hogya hai ab. This a failed state.

  • Chlo tex tou laga do lekin kya in logoin ki loot mar khatam ho gi. Jobs creats hoin gi science or technology main development ho gi . P.hd level ky bundy rulty phir rahy hain.800000 high level ke log mulk chor kr ja chuky hain. CHAINA in ko tawy pr tal kr kha kaye ga. Leadership nai hai nation burbad ho gai. Media bhi right way pr nahi hai.Media pr bhi political affair baqwas ke siwa kuch nai ata.

  • State awam k leye hoti hai na ky awm state k leye . Tax laga kr awam ko ye sahoulat kya dery hain ? Na hi A.c. on kr sakty na car drive kr sakty na good quality ka cooking oil Kha sakty . quality life khatam kr di inho ny . Ye kesa mulk hai jo kar qarzo or kherat pr chalta hai.

  • اللہ پاک اس ملک کے عیاش حکمرانوں اور آلہ کاروں کو تباہ برباد کرے جس ملک میں عوام کی امانتیں لوٹ کر رکھی ہیں سب چھین لے آمین اسکی لاٹھی کبھی کبھی تو برسے گی
