    Video: Tuba-Aamir Liaquat clear divorce rumours

    Aamir Liaquat and his wife Tuba Aamir recently shared a video which has cleared the air of their divorce or separation.

    Taking to Instagram stories, the PTI leader shared a video in which Tuba can be seen crying because her cat Bella, got stuck and her husband saved her. Aamir can be heard saying, “Am i good”, while Tuba, in a crying fit, says yes.

    Explaining the reason behind Tuba changing her surname on social media, Aamir wrote: “Tuba Anwar means Tuba with Noor. And Tuba Aamir means Tuba with a constructor.”

    He further added: “I am really happy that she has adopted my theory that’s why we changed her name to her father’s name after marriage. Her father is a love and a gentleman.”

    He also wished his wife well for her upcoming project, saying: “Tuba is a professional gem and she is doing a second lead character with my friend Bahroz Subzwari’s son @shahrozsabzwari. I am happy for both of them and praying for their success.”

    Earlier, rumors of their divorce were circulating on social media that Tuba has changed her name on social media, reverting to her maiden name Anwar.

    The couple has been embroiled in controversy since they announced their marriage when Aamir left his first wife to marry Tuba.

    In April this year, Liaquat denied a third marriage to a woman named Haniya Khan, a model who said she was married to the televangelist in a ceremony.

    Liaquat posted a video on Instagram denying her claims.

    Opposition unites to form anti-govt strategy over inflation

    Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif Friday made a telephone call to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari to discuss the rising inflation in the country.

    Both leaders discussed a joint strategy of the Opposition against price hike and the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) amended Ordinance in the parliament.

    Shehbaz’s son, Hamza Shehbaz, also proposed that the time has come that all Opposition parties sit together and work out a ‘constitutional solution’ to get rid of this anti-people government, as Shehbaz is optimistic that the PPP may join the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) at some stage for a joint movement against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government, reports Dawn.

    The Opposition slammed Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan’s government for increasing petroleum prices once again and setting a new record in the country’s history.

    “Yet another petrol bomb exploded on the masses in the dead of night. This is IK’s way of providing ‘relief’ after giving a long sermon yesterday. Unfortunately, every day dawns with horrible news for the people. This incompetent/corrupt PTI govt & Pakistan can’t go together,” Shehbaz tweeted.

    Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari took to Twitter and wrote, “Govt increase petrol in the dead of night by Rs8. Increase of almost 20rs in less than a month.”

  • ‘Three sugar mills in Sindh were shut down, leading to an increase in the price of sugar to Rs140 per kg’: PM Khan

    ‘Three sugar mills in Sindh were shut down, leading to an increase in the price of sugar to Rs140 per kg’: PM Khan

    Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan during an address at a ceremony in Attock on Friday said that Sindh shut down three operational sugar mills, which contributed to an increase in the price of sugar.

    “The price of sugar in Pakistan has hit Rs140 per kg. I inquired why this was so. I learned that three sugar mills in Sindh, which were operational, were shut down,” the prime minister said.

    The prime minister went on to say that he subsequently learnt that due to the reduced supply, the sugar mills in Punjab began to hoard the commodity.

    “I told the chief secretary that our law forbids hoarding and so if the sugar mills are doing so, we must retrieve the stock and bring it out to the market so the price drops.”

    “We found out that since July, the sugar mills have obtained a stay order against the rule. And so our government was unable to do anything,” PM Imran Khan said.

    “This is a gross injustice that the sugar mafia earns billions after having broken the backs of our people. And when the government moves to do something, they obtain stay orders,” he remarked.

    PM Khan claimed that there was uproar in India as well over high petrol prices and Pakistan still had the cheapest petrol prices in the region.

    “In India today, there is uproar as well [over petrol prices] and the petrol price per litre is Rs150 while it is Rs200 in Bangladesh. [On the other hand] it is the lowest in Pakistan at Rs146,” the premier said.

    “The biggest [impact] of what happened was that the oil price first decreased and now in the last three months it has doubled […] when oil becomes expensive, then everything becomes expensive.”

    “When there was inflation in the whole world then obviously Pakistan is in this same world and not in the heavens so we also had to be affected. As a result, we fully tried and are still trying to protect our people from this inflation.”

    The prime minister’s comments come the same day as the government increased petroleum prices by up to Rs8.14 per litre with immediate effect to ensure the revival of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme.

  • ‘Made a mistake’: Amir should apologise to Harbhajan Singh, says Saeed Ajmal

    ‘Made a mistake’: Amir should apologise to Harbhajan Singh, says Saeed Ajmal

    Former Pakistan spinner Saeed Ajmal wants former Pakistan speedster Mohammad Amir to apologise to Harbhajan Singh for “jumping in” between Shoaib Akhtar and the Indian bowler’s Twitter conversation. 

    Speaking to Cricket Pakistan, Ajmal said that players should treat each other well because cricket brings people together. 

    “I think Amir made a mistake by jumping in that conversation [between Shoaib Akhtar and Harbhajan Singh] and he should apologise for it. It was a discussion between two great cricketers and Amir made the wrong choice by getting involved in it,” he said. 

    Amir and Singh indulged in a war of words a couple of days ago when the former taunted the latter after India beat Pakistan in the T20 World Cup match on October 24. 

    Harbhajan responded to Amir, and the two had a heated exchange, bringing everything into the mix from Amir’s spot-fixing controversy to Shahid Afridi smashing Harbhajan for four consecutive sixes in a 2006 Lahore Test match.  

    During the interview, Ajmal also spoke about the Pakistan cricket team’s performance so far in the World Cup, adding that he was pleasantly surprised by the energy and performance of the team.

    “This is a difficult thing,” replied Awan laughingly.

    “My innocent prime minister [Imran Khan] is saying this that innocent prime minister cannot be a thief.”

    Badami said that since this is a generic question, should he take Awan’s answer as a yes or a no.

    “Take the anwser for this in the middle,” replied Awan.
