Urban Soul | 13 years ago | Reply What ever the PPP govenrnment or Mr. Gilani say now on the issue, yesterday's blunder by our PM exposed the ethnic biases and drift within government's coalition, I wonder how would we survive when ethnicities have such strong mistrust and grievances with one another like in Pakistan
