In the defense of Dr. Pervez Hoodbhoy



Recent Capital Talk show has spread serious discomfort among few people about Dr. Pervez Hoodbhoy, as evident by their comments on the videos. I just want to clear few points. I agree with what Dr. Sb said to that quack in the show. Before starting abusing Dr. PH because of his behaviour in the show, I wonder what one shows by his own language.

If anybody on a National TV comes and tells lies and you listen to those lies and defend them vehemently and believe on them so religiously that anybody who is disagreeing, is a pimp to you; that surely is a proof of insanity in the society and needed to be addressed. When a person defies basic laws of physics and chemistry, any physicist and chemist can get hyper. A person who does not know difference between Voltage and Current, can he be called an engineer? As simple as that!!!

The Profound Misogyny


Today we have with us a much-esteemed guest, Dr. Naseem Khan Qureshi. Dr. Qureshi is a regional coordinator of an iNGO, Protection of Women Rights and Feminine Empowerment (PWRFE). He has completed his Doctorate in Biology from ABC University of UK. He has been associated with the iNGO since last 15 years and has worked for different projects all over Pakistan. Today we will speak with him about his personal life experiences and his ideas about contemporary affairs.

Akif Khan (AK): Welcome Sir, hope you are doing well.

Dr. Naseem Khan Qureshi (DKQ): You should have started with Assalam o Alaikum. See if educated people like yourself won't commensurate with our religion, then what about the poor illiterate souls of our country?
