I’m a ‘ghairatmand’ Pakistani (II)

Letter December 01, 2011
I could read such brilliant writers on and on and never tire of admiring their wit and wisdom.

ISLAMABAD: Atika Rehman’s piece “I’m a ghairatmand Pakistani” is a great article. It just goes to show that your newspaper doesn’t print fluff and in fact publishes exquisite, brilliantly written articles. Bravo. I could read such brilliant writers on and on and never tire of admiring their wit and wisdom. The same also goes for some of your other writers such as Ejaz Haider and Feisal H Naqvi, who seem to have a mutual admiration for society of some sort.

As for Ms Rehman’s piece I was choking when I read it. And Nadeem F Paracha’s tweet at the end just added the perfect garnish to the article.
