Casting Couches of sports in India
From Kapil Verma and Priyanka Joshi

Mumbai—As Indian women’s hockey goes through turbulence with a sexual harassment case grabbing headlines, athletes tell The Daily Mail about manipulation, favours, exploitation, compromises and a sporting casting couch. Former Indian Police Service (IPS) officer, Kiran Bedi calls the M K Kaushik-Ranjitha Devi sexual harassment hockey controversy, the “tip of an iceberg” implying that similar cases exist in other sports too. Maybe, it is just the tip of the icy Everest.The Daily Mail’s investigations reveal that the sexual dynamic and all the tensions that accompany it from sexual harassment to sexual favors and demands exists everywhere home, workplace and ...

Fake degrees in educational department too!
Well, under-the-cover fake degrees have not been found to be confined to just the politicians but in fact, the educational institution has not been found free of it either. And to top it all, International Islamic University's Head of the Department's degree was recently found out to be all, but fake! What a shame!

Ignorance's bliss…
It all began with checks and balances on the politician's degrees and look where we have landed. We have found out that our most of the doctors were quacks and teachers were with forged degrees. If the focus remained on the politicians only, things would've been better as we are used to of criticising the political figures but with every department carrying forged degrees, one gets depressed and can't help but say that perhaps, ignorance was really a bliss!

Attempt to malign 2-nation theory!
Indian movies have been borrowing our songs time and time again, to such an extend that we have begun to mix the Bollywood songs with ours. In Chhote Ustaad, if our singers were asked to sing just Pakistani songs and Indians to present their cultural numbers, it would have made sense. But combining both the songs as one culture is a serious attempt to malign the two-nation theory and in fact, our very identity which needs to be dealt with iron hands!

Have PPP workers never seen cake?
It seemed here day before yesterday that PPP workers had never seen cake as they literally dropped over the cake being cut to mark the birthday of President Zardari, in Karachi. When our educated illiterates act this way, it seems to be a really shameful sight! God give them some shame!

Nawaz's heartbreak over CoAS's extension…
When Nawaz Sharif was asked to comment on the Chief of the Army Staff; General Ashfaq Pervez Kiyani's term extension, he said nothing but 'Aur Bhi Gham Hein Zamane Main Hazaron, Muhabbat Ke Siwa'!
