Fly Dubai! My Frustrating Experience at Karachi International Airport

After a deliberate thought I thought of writing this blog. Last year in December 2016, I alleged of trying the low cost airline Fly Dubai because of its cheap fares and services that could be add on by making a small fee like selecting your preferred seat and luggage weight upon a small fee payment. The option is not bad and highly recommended especially for its fares value. However, my first experience with the airline was not all that merry and I just returned from the most frustrating experience with that I’ve ever experienced. From beginning to end, it seemed like ther

قصہ کہانی

ایک تھی چڑیا ایک تھا چڑا

ايک تھی چڑيا، ايک تھا چڑا، چڑيا لائی دال کا دانا، چڑا لايا چاول کا دانا، اس سے کچھڑی پکائی، دونوں نے پيٹ بھر کر کھائی، آپس ميں اتفاق ہو تو ايک ايک دانے کی کچھڑی بھی بہت ہوتی ہے۔ چڑا بيٹھا اونگھ رہا تھا کہ اس کے دل ميں وسوسہ آيا کہ چاول کا دانا بڑا ہوتا ہے، دال کا دانا چھوٹا ہوتا ہے۔ پس دوسرے روز کچھڑی پکی تو چڑے نے کہا اس میں چھپن حصے مجھے دے، چواليس حصے تو لے، اے باگھوان پسند کر يا نا پسند کر ۔ حقائق سے آنکھ مت بند کر ، چڑے نے اپنی چونچ ميں سے چند نکات بھي نکالے، اور بی بی کے آگے ڈالے۔ بی بی حيران ہوئی بلکہ رو رو کر ہلکان ہوئی کہ اس کے ساتھ تو ميرا جنم کا ساتھ تھا ليکن کي

But the people of subcontinent were quite familiar with the word Pakistan much before Pakistan Movement because
