RAY OF HOPE: I highly congratulate Mian Israr ul Haq being elected as President and Rja Javaid Iqbal being Secretary of Supreme Court Bar Association. I don't know to which party these personalities have affiliation but I have the ray of hope that the elected representatives shall work for Rule of law and none else. The history remembers those who work for others and dignity of profession.
