Lightless spots

[DAWN] EACH of us has a blind spot. Mr Nawaz Sharif
... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf...
's is the House of Ibn Saud; in his eyes, it can do no wrong. The Pakistain Army's blind spot is India; in its eyes, India can do no right. Imran Khan

's blind spot is the Election Commission; it does not act swiftly enough. Asif Ali Zardari's blind spot is wealth; he can never have enough. The Punjab
1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots....

Police's blind spot is the blind.

On March 2, a contingent of the Punjab Police, deployed outside the Punjab Assembly building, manhandled a group of demonstrators who happened to be not only blind but right. They were agitating in support of their demands for regularisation of their services and implementation of 2pc job quota, a promise made to them by the Punjab government.

They could not have known that redress was not to be found in Faisal Square. The 'deaf' inside the assembly could not, would not hear the blind outside. The young jobless demonstrators were transported to the true crucible of power -- Raiwind, where their grievances were resolved by Hamza Sharif, MNA and son of the Chief Minister Punjab Mr Shahbaz Sharif
...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab...
. Orders were issued. These have trickled down and now reached the sedimentary level of the Government Secondary Institute for the Blind, Sheranwala Gate, where former pupils can now be regularised as teachers.
