Civil society rallies against Qadri’s supporters

LAHORE: The Joint Action Committee for People’s Rights on Saturday organised a rally outside the Quaid-e-Azam Library to protest against the mindset of a section of society, which was treating Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer’s killer as a hero.

The civil society activists belonging to the federation of 33 social organisations participated in the “Rally Against Fear” with the theme “Take your country back! Do not be silenced by fear! And raise your voices for justice”.

The participants included PPP Senator Abida Hussain, Shehrbano Taseer, former NCA dean Nazish Attahullah, Saleema Hashmi, Tahira Syed, Beachonhouse National University Dean Dr Mehdi Hassan, Punjab University English Department Chairperson Prof Dr Shaista Sonnu Sirajuddin, Sajida Vandal, Pervaiz Saleha, Bushra Aetizaz and Abida Syed.

I usually either go with my university's adventure society, Adventure foundation of Pakistan or by hiring personal guides and porters. Its really not that difficult to have such things arranged. The guides can even give you a 'Complete package deal' meaning all you'll have to do is show up (and pay them of course :P) and they'll already have arranged everything else. I dont know about climbing K-2 but I'v promised my self that I will go to Concordia soon inshAllah! But be warned there is nothing more addictive than our north and once your hooked there's no turning back and you'll also be called names like 'mountain boy' etc :P im a prime example of that. :pakistan: I love my country!

ps: If you need any info Im your guy.
