ISLAMABAD: Winter has arrived, and there is a major gas scarcity, particularly in Punjab province, where residential consumers will only receive eight hours per day as of next month.
The region that will be severely hurt by the gas shortage, according to reports, is Punjab, where Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited won’t have enough supply. It is mainly because Punjab plays a smaller part in output than Sindh, Balochistan, and KPK.
According to Article 158 of the Constitution, the province that supplies the gas has priority claim to it. Home consumers in Punjab will get at preset times during the day, despite the fact that the situation may be better in other provinces.

Imran’s assertions of a foreign conspiracy are false: US
The United States has stated that former Pakistani prime minister Imran Khan’s claims that the United States was plotting to overthrow his government through a “regime change” were false, and it has reaffirmed its commitment to its bilateral relations with Pakistan despite the prevalence of “misinformation” and “propaganda” in the region.
When asked to comment on Imran khan’s apparent “backtracking,” US State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel said during a press briefing on Wednesday, “As we’ve previously said, there has — there is not and there has never been a truth to these allegations, but I don’t have anything additional to offer.”
Since his dismissal from power in April via a no-confidence vote — the first such expulsion of any prime minister in Pakistan’s history — Imran has accused the United States and the current leadership in Islamabad of conspiring to overthrow his government.
In a recent interview with Financial Times, however, he stated that he no longer “blamed” the US government for his ouster and that he hoped for a “dignified” relationship between Washington and Islamabad.
When asked about the United States suspected involvement in the conspiracy, he stated, “As far as I’m concerned it is over, it’s behind me.”
Opponents interpreted his comments as a retreat from his accusations, but Imran and the PTI leadership insisted that his words had been misunderstood and twisted.
On Wednesday, when asked for his thoughts on the topic, Vedant began by noting, “The US values our longstanding cooperation with Pakistan and has always viewed a prosperous and democratic Pakistan as critical to US interests.”
That has not altered.
The United States does not support “one political candidate of a party over another,” he added.
When done peacefully, we fully back the defense of democratic, constitutional, and legal norms. Our relationship with Pakistan is a valued bilateral partner, and we will not allow propaganda, misinformation, or disinformation to damage it.
When pressed for further clarification, Vendant replied, “As we’ve previously said, there has — there is not and there has never been a truth to these allegations, but I have nothing additional to offer.”
It was then brought to his attention that Imran had previously called his trip to Russia on the eve of Moscow’s war on Ukraine “embarrassing” in an interview with the Financial Times.
When questioned about the timing of the visit last year, the PTI government defended it as being in keeping with the shift in policy toward geoeconomics.
Moreover, Imran clarified to Financial Times that preparations for the visit began months in advance.
Thus, Vedant concluded, “I really don’t have anything else to offer on foreign minister — or former prime minister Khan’s comments on that.”
Vendant said, “I don’t have any specific meetings or calls to read out,” in response to “rumors” that PTI leaders met with the US ambassador in Islamabad.
WABetainfo first revealed that a new feature had been developed for WhatsApp’s group conversations one month ago. The website now reports that the update to the feature is now available.
Users of WhatsApp are able to recognize individuals who are members of the groups they are using on the messaging site thanks to a feature called the ability to see profile images while they are participating in group conversations.
According to the website for the WhatsApp news tracker, the feature has been made accessible to iOS users who have updated to the latest version of WhatsApp beta for iOS 22.23.0.70, and it is now finally available to certain beta testers on WhatsApp Desktop as well after the version was updated.
The picture below shows what the group conversations will look like once the feature is turned on. The symbols representing your profile will appear next to the conversation boxes.
However, individuals’ privacy settings will determine whether their profile images are seen by others or hidden from view, and this fact should be kept in mind at all times. If someone’s profile photo is missing or hidden, a default icon for the profile will appear in its place. This symbol will be colored with the same color as is used for the contact name.
In the not-too-distant future, this functionality will be made available to Android users.
The flood assessment, which cost $30 billion, is profoundly inaccurate.
A shocking admission was made by a high-ranking official: the government did not have district-wise data on the population affected by the recent floods in the country, casting doubt on the Post-Disaster Need Assessment report that estimated losses at more than $30 billion.
While answering a question from a member of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Finance on Wednesday, National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) Director (Operations) Brig Muhammad Umar made the shocking admission that the agency had ignored the human cost in terms of manpower and resources.
The lack of information has resulted in hundreds of thousands of people affected by floods going without necessities like blankets and tents as winter approaches, as revealed by committee proceedings.
The committee meeting was called to discuss the relief and rehabilitation effort in the flood-affected areas, and whether or not punitive action was taken against the commercial banks that manipulated the exchange rate.
When MNA Dr. Nafisa Shah asked the NDMA’s director (operations) how many people had been affected by the flood in the Khairpur district of Sindh, he responded, “I do not have the data of the affected people.” Dr. Shah asked the question after learning that the authority had distributed 9,380 tents and 9,000 blankets in Dr. Shah’s district of Khairpur.
Dr. Shah estimates that between 100,000 and 150,000 people in the Khairpur district were impacted by the floods. Thousands of people in her district, she said, had been left to the mercy of the harsh weather and were desperately looking for shelter and warm clothing because the NDMA did not yet have town- and district-level data available.
She also noted that while “there is no denying the fact that the relief goods are coming,” there is currently no information available at the level of the union council. The MNA reported that the process of listing homes had begun, but she expressed frustration at the slow pace at which it was progressing.
Moreover, the PDNA report, which was compiled by the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the United Nations Development Programme, and the European Union, has been called into question as a result of these revelations, as have the government’s promises to help the people affected by the flood.
The total cost of damages and losses is estimated at $30 billion, while the cost of reconstruction is calculated at $16.3 billion. However, the 33 million people who the government and the PDNA reports say were affected by the floods are not specified.
Over 33 million people have been impacted by the flooding that has submerged one-third of the country. Almost eight million people have been uprooted, the PDNA claims. More than 1,700 people, including a third of all children, were reported dead as a result of the floods.
Dr. Shah, on the other hand, said that the number of child deaths, including those caused by water-related illnesses, was closer to 5,000 to 6,000 in her district alone. Dr. Shah said that while some families have gotten food parcels more than once, other families haven’t gotten any at all because they don’t have the right paperwork.
While it is unclear how many people have been affected, Pakistan has been asking for international aid in an effort to reach out to those who have. For the most immediate needs of 9.5 million people, Pakistan upgraded its emergency aid appeal to United Nations members in October, asking for $816 million. But as of October 21st, just 13.7 percent of the total sum asked has been funded, as reported by PDNA.
Standing committee chairman Qaiser Ahmad Sheikh of the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) also addressed the problem of a lag in punishing commercial banks for currency manipulation.
The ruling alliance’s legislators lost patience after the economic team failed to lower the dollar’s value against the rupee to below Rs200, as evidenced by the proceedings, which included the imposition of fines.
Chaudhry Barjees Tahir, a senior lawmaker for the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, has demanded that Finance Minister Ishaq Dar appear before the standing committee and explain why he has been unable to lower the dollar’s value to below Rs200.
Tahir claimed that the wealthy banks were allowed to continue gambling with the nation’s future while the poor were punished for committing minor offenses. That no measures have been taken against financial institutions is the day’s most notable development.
Bank hearings are “almost complete,” according to SBP Deputy Governor Dr. Inayat Hussain, and “internal validation” is currently underway at the central bank. Similar to what the SBP governor said earlier this week, he stated that the penalties against the banks would be imposed by November 30.
Hussain stated that the value of the rupee was under constant pressure due to a lack of capital inflows and insufficient financial inflows caused by both external and internal issues. The acting governor expressed optimism that things would turn around in the coming months.
MNA Khalid Magsi of the government-aligned Balochistan Awami Party asked, “First we tried Miftah Ismail, and then we tried Ishaq Dar, now who is next in line?” According to him, the country’s economic trajectory is still uncertain. According to Magsi, “the SBP appears to be lenient on the banks.”
The SBP informed the standing committee that it had conducted an assessment of the significantly increased foreign exchange income of the banks in the first half of 2022 based on regular monitoring and complaints received from banks’ customers regarding charging higher margins in the opening of import LCs.
According to Dr. Shah, this statement shows that the SBP is defending the commercial banks by claiming that the significant increase in foreign exchange income is primarily due to the rise in daily volatility of the exchange rate, which in turn resulted in the widening of the spreads charged by the banks.
A visit by the Taliban was not successful in resolving the Chaman border issue.
A member of the Frontier Corps reportedly committed suicide after being shot at the Friendship Gate on Sunday, and a delegation from the Afghan Taliban administration reportedly travelled to Chaman to express their condolences to the Pakistani security officials responsible for his death.
During their time at Friendship Gate, the Afghan Taliban communicated with Pakistani border patrol agents. They mourned the soldier’s passing and called it a tragic accident.
According to the reports, Kabul and Islamabad have been in touch about reopening the border. There has been no word on whether or not the border will open until the Taliban hand over the perpetrators of the firing to Pakistan.
Family members of Pakistanis and Afghans have safely returned home.
According to Dawn, a senior official of the Chaman administration said, “We allowed all Pakistanis to come back to Chaman from Afghanistan who produced required legal documents, which proved their Pakistani nationality.”
We are waiting for orders from Islamabad on how to open the border with Afghanistan, the official said.
The Supreme Court has rejected the registrar’s objections to the G-B CM plea.
 Supreme Court of Pakistan overrode the registrar’s office’s objections to a petition challenging the appointment of a judge and the extension given to three judges of the Gilgit-chief Baltistan’s court by the Pakistani government. The court said that the petition raised important questions about the governance of the region, which the government had previously ignored.
Earlier, G-B Chief Minister Khalid Khursheed Khan had veteran lawyer Makhdoom Ali Khan file a constitutional petition under Article 184(3) of the Constitution, naming the federal government, the G-B governor, and the recently appointed Judge Chief Court Javed Ahmed as respondents.

Earlier, G-B Chief Minister Khalid Khursheed Khan had veteran lawyer Makhdoom Ali Khan file a constitutional petition under Article 184(3) of the Constitution, naming the federal government, the G-B governor, and the recently appointed Judge Chief Court Javed Ahmed as respondents.
The judge stated that the Civil Aviation Authority case had already dealt with the issue of governance in G-B and related matters, such as the availability of fundamental rights to the people.
“There is no denying that the right to justice and the judicial system’s independence are fundamental rights, the protection of which can be sought in appropriate cases through petitions filed either with the High Court or the Supreme Court.
According to the Supreme Court’s order, “Matters relating to or arising out of the Order in relation to GB, especially questions relating to the enforcement of fundamental rights, are prima facie not within the remit of any High Court and this Court is, therefore, the appropriate forum for pursuing the same.” “In other words, it contributed.
Given that “fundamental questions relating to the governance of GB may also need to be addressed,” as one of the petitions states, “this only strengthens my conclusion that prima facie the office objections are without merit.” A ruling was made that dismissed the office’s protests.
In accordance with the Court’s established method and practice, “the constitutional petitions are to be recorded, numbered, and set in court. Respondents have the right to challenge the legality of the petitions and any other claims made in them if and when they are served with process (or if they want to voluntarily appear before the Court).
The defense minister says that the government is not planning any “major changes” to the Army Act.
In response to all the talk in the media about changes to the Pakistan Army Act (PAA), Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif said that the government has no plans to make “major changes” to the Act.
Asif said in a tweet that the media’s attention to changes to the PAA was “uncalled for”
Media hype over amendments in Pakistan Army Act is uncalled for. Government is not considering any major changes in the said Act. SCP had demanded review of relevant clauses of PAA in its judgement in CP 39/2019 which shall be complied with in due course.
In his statement, Asif, who is in charge of defense, said that the government has no plans to change the Army Act in a big way. In a ruling from 2019, the Supreme Court asked that important parts of the Army Act be looked at again, he said.
He also said that the decision of the highest court would be followed in due time.
The defense minister said this because a local newspaper said that the law would be changed in a big way.
In a report, Daily Dawn said that the government “seems” to be thinking about changing the army act so that the prime minister, who makes appointments, can keep “any candidate through a simple notification, rather than having to go through a complex, constitutional process” instead of going through a complicated constitutional process.
The report also said that the report will be presented to the Cabinet Committee for Disposal of Legislative Cases (CCLC) after a few changes. This will happen after the Ministry of Defense gave its approval last month. Later, it will be brought to the parliament to be passed into law.
Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa is retiring next month, so the army will soon have a new leader. The army chief is busy saying goodbye to people right now.

The unique geoeconomic position of Pakistan makes it a prime location for US investors
According to Masood Khan, Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States, Pak’s favorable geoeconomic position and remarkable demographic cohorts make it a desirable destination for U.S. investors and firms.
In an exclusive meeting with the PACC board of directors in Los Angeles, he voiced his gratitude for the organization’s efforts to strengthen commercial links between Pakistan and the United States.
Although trade between the two countries increased from $8.5 to $12 billion last year, he noted that even more growth was possible through increased economic cooperation in specific areas like technology, IT tourism, extractive industry, oil and gas exploration, manufacturing, healthcare, and agriculture.
Businessmen from the healthcare industry joined those from the textile, banking, logistics, solar, and Fintech industries at the event.
In addition, the Ambassador emphasized the significance of expanding commercial connections with California, whose economy is worth $3.5 trillion. Trade between the two countries is significant, he said, with Pakistan’s exports to California totaling $457 million last year and imports costing $138 million, for a surplus of $319 million.
The ambassador said that Pakistan is often overlooked because of its small size, despite the country’s large consumer market. He claimed that eighty American businesses had been operating in Pak for decades, all the while raking in millions in revenue. He urged the group’s members to have faith in Pak’s economy and expand their businesses there, saying that doing so would attract the attention of other investors.
The Ambassador acknowledged their worries about Pak’s regulatory systems but assured them that the country’s government was working to make doing business easier. Some of these measures were the simplification of taxation, the protection of intellectual property, the relaxation of restrictions on obtaining visas for business travel, and the introduction of cyber laws.
He said that this was the reason why 203 million USD in earnings were brought home from 257 million USD in U.S. foreign direct investment the previous year. French, Chinese, German, Singaporean, South Korean, and Japanese firms are among those investing in Pakistan’s information technology industry. He extended an invitation to the Pakistani American business community to participate in Pakistan’s current economic upheaval.
Fawad Ismail, president of the Pakistan American Chamber of Commerce, gave a presentation to the Ambassador regarding the Chamber’s efforts to strengthen trade ties between Pakistan and the United States through events including investment seminars and webinars on the Roshan Digital Account (RDA). In addition, he highlighted the charitable efforts made during the Covid-19 pandemic, including the donation of over a million dollars worth of personal protective equipment (PPE), the raising of funds for disaster relief in Pakistan and the United States, and the aid provided to local communities and businesses.

To commemorate Chaudhry Rehmat Ali’s 125th birthday
On Wednesday, the nation honoured Chaudhry Rehmat Ali’s 125th birthday and honours were given to his active involvement in the history of the Pakistan cause.
On November 16, 1897, Chaudhry Rehmat Ali was born into a Muslim Gujjar family in the Indian Punjabi city of Hoshiarpur. He is credited with coming up with the term PAKISTAN for an independent Muslim nation in South Asia.
He taught at Aitchison College after earning his degree from the Islamia Madrassa in Lahore in 1918 before enrolling at Punjab University (PU) to pursue a legal education.
He relocated to England in 1930 to enrol at Emmanuel College in Cambridge (ECC). He released a booklet titled “Now or Never; Are We to Live or Perish Forever?” in 1933. , who originally used the term “PAKISTAN” to describe the country.
He began the Pakistan National Movement (PNM) in England in 1933. He then graduated from the University of Cambridge with a BA and an MA.
He was summoned to the Middle Temple Inn Bar in London in 1943.
He kept putting out publications detailing his plans for South Asia up until 1947.
On February 3, 1951, Chaudhry Rehman Ali passed away in Cambridge, England, at the age of 53. (UK).
A day after a well-known businessman from Dubai appeared on the station and claimed he had purchased some of the state presents from Farah Gogi and Shahzad Akbar, the chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, criticised a local news channel and its anchor for a “baseless tale.”
The ousted premier insisted on Twitter that the TV station and anchorperson were “backed by handlers” in a post on the social media platform.He said that he had been “slandered… through a false tale put up by a notorious fraudster and internationally wanted criminal.”
Imran claimed that after consulting with his attorneys, he had decided to sue the network and the presenter “not only in Pakistan but also in the UK and the UAE.”His comments came after businessman Umar Farooq Zahoor said in an interview that he spent $2 million on pricey things given to the PTI leader by the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman.
When the media asked questions about Andrew Morton, Princess Diana “was pretty irate.”
Dickie Arbiter, a royal commentator, recently remembered how Princess Diana once became upset when reporters inquired as to whether she had assisted Andrew Morton with his book.
The only query from the media pack after she returned from her 24-hour trip to Budapest was, “Has Diana assisted Andrew Morton with his book?
The royal expert continued, “I answered, ‘I don’t know anything about it, but I’ll ask her.
“I walked into the retiring room when she arrived at the Peto Institute after a day visit to the Budapest-based Peto Institute and said, “They’re inquiring about you and Andrew Morton and the book. She answered, “I know nothing about it.
The expert continued, “She was extremely offended because I had actually questioned her.
Dickie continued by saying that Diana contacted him a few weeks later as a result of her visit to “Charing Cross to get the first edition.”
Diana was “so worried about it,” he continued, and she kept asking him, “What do I do? “
“Ma’am, you’ve already completed it, I remarked, he said. “I advise you to close your doors and windows, hang up the phone, and stay inside.
Do not pick up the phone; you have an engagement on Tuesday; remain at Kensington Palace.
Stephen Fleming, a former captain of New Zealand, has called attention to the error that cost Pakistan the T20 World Cup 2022 championship on Sunday.
According to Fleming, Pakistan’s strategy in the final four overs of their batting innings is what caused them to lose the match.
Pak VS Eng
Pakistan made a “huge error” in the T20 World Cup final, according to Fleming.
“In 16 overs, [Pakistan] scored 121 [119] for 4. After the first innings, Fleming observed on ESPNcricinfo’s T20 Time Out show, “There’s enough in that wicket to suggest that a 165-score is going to be a genuine good test. “There was patchy bounce, there was some movement available, and it was turning.
We have some artillery here, and we know that we just need to put a point on the board in order to be competitive, so as a unit you should be expressing that. I think it was a grave error that the last four overs were scored for 16 [18] runs.
According to what we have seen, even at 10 [runs per over], you reach 161 and if you have one good over, you reach 165, which I believe is more than competitive. Especially in light of the unexpected turn and the opportunity for perhaps a quicker and more skilled pace attack. Yes, there had been a lot going on up to that moment, but Pakistan had made a huge mistake.
It should be mentioned that Ben Stokes and Sam Curran shone as England defeated Pakistan in the final and became the first team to win both the 50-over and 20-over white-ball championships.
In front of an enthusiastic 80,462 spectators at a packed Melbourne Cricket Ground, Jos Buttler’s team restricted Pakistan to 137-8, with player-of-the-match Curran taking 3-12 and Adil Rashid contributing 2-22.
In response, England struggled to establish any momentum against a fierce pace attack and fell to 49-3 in the sixth over. Boundaries were also difficult to come by.
However, Stokes (52 not out) and Moeen Ali (19) led England to 138-5 with six balls remaining to cap off an exciting campaign that lasted 45 games and over a month.

Veena Malik, her ex, was urged to resolve the custody dispute for the children amicably
Actress, TV host, reality television personality, and model Veena Malik has promised that, when the court so decrees, she will bring her children to see their father and her ex-husband Asad Khattak.
Veena’s appeal challenging a family court decision in the divorced couple’s case for child custody was heard on Wednesday by a single judge bench of the Sindh High Court (SHC) under the leadership of Justice Salahuddin Pahnwar. Due to a SHC order, Veena brought both of her kids into the courtroom.
Parents make the best judges when it comes to deciding who gets to keep their kids, according to Justice Panhwar. He gave Khattak a two-hour meeting request with his kids.
The judge recommended the couple to try to resolve their issues outside of court. “We are working hard on this. We anticipate a resolution,” the petitioner’s attorney added.
According to Khattak’s attorney, his client worries Veena will take the kids abroad. “She’ll have to bring the kids home to meet their dad if she takes the kids on an international trip. A parent has the right to see his kids, said Justice Panhwar.
Veena gave the Court her word that she would take the kids to see their father whenever the judge saw it necessary.
On the court’s direction, Khattak spent two hours with his kids. Veena afterwards departed the SHC facility with the kids.
Khattak characterised their encounter as pleasant. “I’m pleased to have finally met my kids after four years. After the court session, he had a casual conversation with reporters and stated, “I have a legal right to visit them.
Khattak added that he was attempting to get in touch with Maulana Tariq Jameel, a preacher for the Tableeghi Jamaat, to ask him to, if possible, play a part in the situation. According to Veena, she has never prevented her ex-husband from seeing their kids.
