Many of my friends are worried about trolls. But why should we be scared of them. Massive political engineering has brought pti to the fore. Why should I accept this. It is my Pakistan too . Islam says speak the truth and side and those who are wronged #Elections2018

Journalists shouldnt indulge in advocacy or activism. As humans we all have biases. As sahafis we balance them by taking all versions of the story. Challenge is social media as u rightly say @nidkirm @FarahnazZahidi @Mahim_Maher

@Mahim_Maher @nidkirm Journalists can and do indulge in advocacy and activism. They have tilts. They always did & do. It's natural. However when reporting/editing both sides hv to be reported, with at least a semblance of neutrality.The blurry area is social media, actually. Who are we when we tweet?

Shehla Raza received death threats for her sect. She was one of those jailed by Nawaz in a cell full of men. She remained steadfast in her defiance of the extremists. There were few in PPP vocal enough against the Taliban and she was one of them. A grass root political worker!
