My father was a Hindu refugee - lost his family land in Pakistan, walked for days to restart in India in 1947. A familiar story of many like him. He told me that the real reason why Pakistan was formed was because in every village, the savings rate of Hindus was much higher and most of the debt was owed by Muslims to Hindus. With a stroke of the pen, all that debt was wiped out. It took 75 years but karma is at the door, asking for a settlement.
No one is having heart to mention The name of PV Narasimha Rao Garu in lifting the Indian Economy from Deep pit ; Sad to note that Shekharji also is one ; Indian public is indebted to Rao Garu for handling the economic mess in 1991 ; Present Govt also should be appreciated for handling pandemic hit economy well ; This is irrespective of political leanings ;
PV Narasimha Rao is the most unsung PM. We were fortunate to have him steer through the disaster at that time. I doubt if the other congressmen at that time had the guts to carry out the economic reforms the duo did at that time.
To be fair to SG, he has positively written about PVNR and mentioned his contributions in other CTC videos. SG even interviewed him for an NDTV show in the early 2000s. In fact, the Wikipedia article on PVNR has quotes from SG's writings about him being unfairly treated by Congress. But your point is noted, he could've have mentioned him here.
Agree 100%. PVN Garu was the best statesman and PM India was fortunate to have. An Unsung Hero. He was instrumental in bringing down the militancy in Punjab, Kashmir and NorthEast. He shaped and laid the road for the modern India’s economic success. A BharatRatna for India. 🙏
I saw discussion yesterday. You forgot to mention Atif Mian's examples of how Pakistani killed Ahmedia who came back for doing good for his village because he was not considered Muslim. He also mentioned same about Hindu who wanted to open hospital in his home village in Pakistan but Muslims didn't allow it. The society is completely backrupt by fantasies of Jihad.
They did nothing more than what IMF told them to do. IMF just doesn't give loan but they also reform the economy, without agreeing to their condition they won't release loan.
Atif Mian also mentioned how Pakistani state and society (Muslims) do not let Hindu Sindhis establish businesses and prosper because of pure religious hatred. But SG as usual intentionally skipped that because of his love/fear of Muslims.

Comparison of indi Pakistan on petrol price issue reminds me of an article during UPA.....in one of those all party meetings hosted by PM Singh, TMC MP Sudip bandopadhyay raised issue of low prices in Pak as compared to India...to which Dr. Singh replied: "India and Pakistan should not be put in the same bracket"
Pakistani society and economy is still in the medieval age. There are super rich nobles and poor. Middle class is virtually non existence. The worse thing is allowing dual citizenship where government bureaucrats and Army officials care about their foreign bank accounts and properties and use the country to extract every last drop of juice.
There is no middle class in both india and pakistan . Pakistan is like everyone poor af. India is better but there is no middle class in India. 25k a month is top 10% . 25k me ghanta milta hai. It's rich and not identify themselves as rich class
Once upon a time - there was a term used to describe India’s very low economic rate of growth ie “the hindu rate of growth” ; looks like Pakistan has achieved its “Muslim rate of growth”
It does seem true that the great majority of Muslim nations have more problems financially and in the geopolitical relationships with other countries. This religious effect goes so far as to create extreme friction even between the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam. It is difficult to understand.
Coincidentally "Hindu rate of growth" was to mask the fact that it was the ruling party of the time's rate of growth and their icon was a "hindu by accident" who resented reconstruction of Somnath temple?
Pak is literally "Allah bharose". This episode wraps up nicely with yesterday's episode on India's budget. Officially, Defense spending is 17.5% of Pak's current expenditure. Unofficially it would be much higher. To make matters worse, the Pak army actually has its own PSUs independent of the Federal Govt. Debt servicing accounts for 30% of the budget. They practically have nothing left for Infra after salaries & terrorism funding. Corruption is rampant, and most politicians already have dual citizenship with one foot in Britain.
50% of their budget is going in servicing debt, 35% in defense, and 15% for people. So you can think ghaas to khani hi hai aur katora lekar to ghoomna hi hai.
I was looking at long term trend of Pakistan Currency vs Indian Currency. Since 2012 Pakistan currency was gaining strength against Indian currency which peaked at the end of 2016. 2017 onwards it has been on a steady decline.

It has unfortunately taken around 76 years for Pakistan to realise that 11th century was 900 years ago and that things aren't quite the same.

SG Sir - I totally agree with your views here. But I think the root cause of Pakistan's economic malaise lies deeper and is related to the premise and promises of Pakistan's genesis. With that kind of nutty cocktail of lies and communal hatred about the what and why of Pakistan, the future writes itself. That includes the Kashmir fiascos, Bangladesh blunders, strategic depth mirage, economic mess, "hunting with the hounds and running with the hare" in Afghanistan to milk USA of billions of dollars, keeping and maintaining terror infrastructure etc. Unless they make peace with facts, clarify who and what Pakistan stands for (as in just to protect the interest of Pak people and boundary only and that they are very much of Indian origin), fix their education policy, destroy terror network, send army back to the barracks, bid a permanent goodbye to mullahs and madrassahs etc., I cannot imagine how it can even have a modicum of normalcy. Like I said, their future is a logical consequence of how they got created.

SG - I think again this is an unnecessary episode on Pakistan. You said nothing about India's interest in this whole situation - how India will be affected, will Pak be forced to changed its viewpoint. They have been in this situation for a long time, but they are still the same militarists. I have heard a talk of Miftah and he is a smart , good person - a rare for Pakistan. Safe to say unless the army gets a haircut this situation will continue, even worsen. Please do an episode on how can this situation be exploited to bring peace to the region.
Miftah himself is of the opinion of no trade with India till BJP rules. They don't like the iron handed (which I like btw) approach of Modi. They are waiting for BJP rule to end so that they get a Pak apologist Indian govt. Which I hope doesn't happen.

@@ravindra7791 Agree with you. They are in a Catch-22 situation. That's their headache how to get out of it. Just hope our government don't give them the long rope.
Present crisis in Pakistan strongly correlates with American disinterest and withdrawn from Afganistan and it shows in any economic indicator you choose to see how it has deteriorated over time. From 60s Pakistan leveraged their geostrategic location to get money from USA. In 60s it was US spying from Gilgit of USSR using U2 planes, In 70s it was brokering US China friendship, lateron volatile Afganistan before and 9/11 provided perennial dollar flow. Inspite of this, Pak went to IMF 22 times. This shows rhe extent of mismanagement or loot that was happening. Today IMF has put a condition that assets of all military and civilian top officer be made public
Pakistan is a relic of the Great Game. Pakistan and Ukrainistan are opposite sides of the same coin. The Anglo-$axons and NATO will bail out and prop up Pakistan using western taxpayers' money and call it the Islamic Moneybags Fund (IMF) because the Indus valley is surrounded by countries that are friendly to? You guessed it. Russia! Pakistan is the last piece in the geopolitical jigsaw waiting to fall under Russia's sphere of influence. When that happens a nuclear armed Orthodox Christian power will be able to project military power in the Middle East. In the meantime Pakistani generals and incompetent and corrupt Pakistani politicians and kleptomaniacs will be laughing all the way to western banks and tax havens. Another foreign policy disaster by the Anglo-$axons led NATO coming near you soon.
They did nothing more than what IMF told them to do. IMF just doesn't give loan but they also reform the economy, without agreeing to their condition they won't release loan.
Good detailed analysis. But the unfair part is that he gives credit to Dr. MM Singh and leaves out Sri PVN Rao. Gives credit to Dr. Raghuram Rajan, who came to the scene much later, and also has remained controversial even to this day.
Like India is viewing Pak, China is viewing or looking at India. India 🇮🇳better pull up it's sleeve and start working seriously. We live in the North East and China's ambitions in this region is very clear. But still, India only wants to talk about a lesser enemy may be because it gives us at least a fleeting pride and joy to talk about someone weaker and smaller than us!? The present government has now shifted it's attention and is working better than the previous governments. Hope we see real development in Country to counter others.
It's nothing like that,pak economy is worst and we are fastest growing major economy and military gap between India and pak is more than India and China Although our economy is still to small but we are growing atleast at high pace than most countries
India stopped treating Pakistan as equal long back. India's focus is China. India is one of the fastest growing economy in the world. It has record 600Billion forex. Ofcourse there are many things which we need to improve due to democracy
Our focus is China only, but just for some lighter moments we talk about Pakistan. Pakistan is like the mint coated mout freshner for us, just feels better after a meal.
It's Pakistan's misfortune that a brilliant economist like Aatif Mian was shunned for being Ahmedi. He was in Imran Khan's original team to help steer their economy. Kudos to Imran for recognizing the talent. But then he couldn't show the spine to keep him.
I wouldn’t say It’s Pakistan’s fault rather the Punjabi Elites. They’ve subjugated Bengalis, Sindhis, Baloch, and the rest. Those elites need to go. It’ll bring calm, prosperity & peace.

let us unpack this 1) Pak goes bankrupt (Argentina has defaulted 3 or 4 times) 2) Pak has nukes 3) an unstable Pak i.e. home for all kinds of stuff will only cause chaos for the region and the world at large. Conclusion Pak needs a bailout everytime they mess up or they need to be made nuke free (much harder....). Not talking about Nukes is ignoring the elephant in the room....
There is a saying "To keep beating a dead snake to prove strength". Pakistan is dead because of bad policy and instability. Why not an analysis on how Japan and Germany went from a defeated destroyed country to economic super power?? What was their economic model?? Why not implement successful co-operative model of amul in other sectors?? Farmers have greatly benefited from the model. Understand that word pakistan attract crowd, atleast end with examples like japan or Germany and their social success. It's like being happy with neighbors problem.
Japan and Germany had a huge military industrial complex. They used their industrial enterprise largely for military purposes during the 19th century. Germany wanted to counter Britain with it and Japan wanted to defeat Russia first and then USA. Both Germany and Japan lost the WW2 so badly that they decided to abandon this military industrial complex and converted that industrial enterprise for more productive purposes and look where they're now. Pakistan is a military dominated state but they mostly import their military hardware. They don't have much industrial enterprise currently to move away from militarism to more productive industrialisation.

The real question is why did IMF put conditionalities now ,why are they asking for a financial road map now ? Pakistan was always in a financial weak spot then Why did IMF gave Pakistan bailout 13 times without any conditions or Soft conditions Because of American Interest!! ,these Mfs wanted to uses Pakistan for their geo political interests That's why they kept giving them money and Pakistan kept using these money to funds terrorists against India and US turned a blind eye for their adventures in India Today their interests are aligning with India that's why Pakistan is being downgraded. America will not think twice to ditch India if it's in their Interest. Hope the future generation understands the true nature of America and keep the relations accordingly.
Thank you for a great episode, sir! I liked that instead of focusing on any one thing, this episode was more of a general overview of Pakistan's current state of affairs, and what led them to this situation. There have been two significant developments in Pakistan over the last year, both of which CTC has covered extensively - the rise > fall > defiance of Imran Khan and the changing role/approach of Pakistan's Army. The last I had heard (from CTC), Imran Khan had just been shot at and elections seemed to be on the horizon and the retiring Army general had made quite an uncharacteristic speech. I wonder where both of these situations are at currently.
When SG sir talked about the time when there was 6% growth in Pak, it was a great example. Now Imagine if Politicians around the world focused majorly on development, tech and other constructive things, shedding all the petty and unnecessary stuff, setting aside differences and worked together, how our world would have developed. But then again one can only wish such a thing can happen, cannot be too idealistic.😔😮💨
Pakistan is a classic example of the saying - "Elect a clown, expect a circus". India was lucky to have leaders like Nehru, Sardar Patel, LB shastri, Vajpayee, Dr. Manmohan Singh. While Pakistan on the other hand had a political vacuum after the death of Jinnah. This void was filled by incompetent leaders and greedy military dictators. Their short-sightedness has ruined their country.
You did not mention PV narasimha rao. Apart from Sardar Patel offered Kashmir to Pakistan in leo of Hyderabad , before meged in India and Jinnah refused because Kashmir people are same as Paksitan people
Lol if that was true then Indonesia and Malaysia would be poverty-stricken, instead of Myanmar and Sri Lanka. The determining difference is that India's founders weren't stupid enough to give too much importance to religion or ethnicity, whereas Pakistan's founders were stupid enough to define their entire existence on the basis of religion. The moment you get too caught up in ideology, you're done for. Doesn't matter what that ideology is - Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Communism or anything in between.
People don't like discussing it but it is also a Punjabi culture thing too. Just look at our Punjab and how profligate it is. Pakistan is 70% Punjab, so what's happening in our state is happening there on a national level.
@@realhumphreyappleby there may be some truth to that. Bangladesh after all has a far stronger economy than most south asian countries, despite being just as much of a Muslim country as Pakistan.
Muslim in pakistan ? What about Muslims in Indonesia, UAE and other well to do countries like malasia etc. So going by that Analogy within India, Most Hindu state like UP should be most prosperous? It’s policies and politics that have put them in such a mess. Yours is a very cursory sweeping comment.
I think the main cause of pakistan's downfall is the lack of support from exports. Bangladesh has textile and srilanka has rubber and some others and it also has tourism. But Pakistan doesn't focus on any exports. Being a terror rich country it can't offer tourism or investments. Only remittances are somewhat saving them.
Harsh the success of Swaziland gives blueprint for success for a poor country. The king of Swaziland introduced a system based on meritocracy. Competent people were placed in positions of power. Second the resources of country were exploited for national benefit not the powerful few. A strong capitalist economy which protects private property ownership. Strong governance to prevent corruption. Respect for the rule of law. Respect for minorities within the country. Positive relations with neighbouring states. Long term stable relations with international partners. It’s the only country to recognise Taiwan and has done so for fifty years. I think Swaziland is the blueprint that any impoverished former colonised nation without access to sea can emulate.

Shekhar ji, we are not asking for subsidies Petrol or Diesel. We are asking for less tax on petroleum. Modi government has increased 30+ rs when crude oil prices were 25-30$. At that time, Arun Jaitley and other ministers told us that they were creating a buffer and when price increases, people will not suffer. But the Modi government has done completely the opposite and that was the problem.
Because at that point there was almost negative economic activity sir . Government has to collect money from somewhere. But I do get your point . Probably we need some Measure like taxing super rich farmers , increasing property tax , getting tough on black economy
@@rohitkashyap1051 then that buffer should have been used to reduce burden. But it was not done until it was very late. The government should not behave like Munafakhore. By the way check the petroleum minister's speech in parliament where he boosted about 4 Lakh crores of tax from petroleum and the public was paying 100+ rs for oil.

Once upon a time - there was a term used to describe India’s very low economic rate of growth ie “the hindu rate of growth” ; looks like Pakistan has achieved its “Muslim rate of growth”
It does seem true that the great majority of Muslim nations have more problems financially and in the geopolitical relationships with other countries. This religious effect goes so far as to create extreme friction even between the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam. It is difficult to understand.
Coincidentally "Hindu rate of growth" was to mask the fact that it was the ruling party of the time's rate of growth and their icon was a "hindu by accident" who resented reconstruction of Somnath temple?
When ever I listen things like this... I start remembering chacha Nehru with fond and affection along with his female family members...
Pak is literally "Allah bharose". This episode wraps up nicely with yesterday's episode on India's budget. Officially, Defense spending is 17.5% of Pak's current expenditure. Unofficially it would be much higher. To make matters worse, the Pak army actually has its own PSUs independent of the Federal Govt. Debt servicing accounts for 30% of the budget. They practically have nothing left for Infra after salaries & terrorism funding. Corruption is rampant, and most politicians already have dual citizenship with one foot in Britain.
Their Finance minister Dar said exactly that - Allah will save the country 😅
50% of their budget is going in servicing debt, 35% in defense, and 15% for people. So you can think ghaas to khani hi hai aur katora lekar to ghoomna hi hai.
I was looking at long term trend of Pakistan Currency vs Indian Currency. Since 2012 Pakistan currency was gaining strength against Indian currency which peaked at the end of 2016. 2017 onwards it has been on a steady decline.

SG Sir - I totally agree with your views here. But I think the root cause of Pakistan's economic malaise lies deeper and is related to the premise and promises of Pakistan's genesis. With that kind of nutty cocktail of lies and communal hatred about the what and why of Pakistan, the future writes itself. That includes the Kashmir fiascos, Bangladesh blunders, strategic depth mirage, economic mess, "hunting with the hounds and running with the hare" in Afghanistan to milk USA of billions of dollars, keeping and maintaining terror infrastructure etc. Unless they make peace with facts, clarify who and what Pakistan stands for (as in just to protect the interest of Pak people and boundary only and that they are very much of Indian origin), fix their education policy, destroy terror network, send army back to the barracks, bid a permanent goodbye to mullahs and madrassahs etc., I cannot imagine how it can even have a modicum of normalcy. Like I said, their future is a logical consequence of how they got created.
If other Muslim nations like Turkey, Iran, Indonesia and even Bangladesh could modernise and progress why can’t Pakistan do it.

You said nothing about India's interest in this whole situation - how India will be affected, will Pak be forced to changed its viewpoint.

Safe to say unless the army gets a haircut this situation will continue, even worsen. Please do an episode on how can this situation be exploited to bring peace to the region.
Miftah might be smart but suffers from the same thing all Pakistanis do , hatred for India

Present crisis in Pakistan strongly correlates with American disinterest and withdrawn from Afganistan and it shows in any economic indicator you choose to see how it has deteriorated over time.
From 60s Pakistan leveraged their geostrategic location to get money from USA. In 60s it was US spying from Gilgit of USSR using U2 planes, In 70s it was brokering US China friendship, lateron volatile Afganistan before and 9/11 provided perennial dollar flow. Inspite of this, Pak went to IMF 22 times. This shows rhe extent of mismanagement or loot that was happening.
Today IMF has put a condition that assets of all military and civilian top officer be made public
Pakistan is a relic of the Great Game. Pakistan and Ukrainistan are opposite sides of the same coin. The Anglo-$axons and NATO will bail out and prop up Pakistan using western taxpayers' money and call it the Islamic Moneybags Fund (IMF) because the Indus valley is surrounded by countries that are friendly to? You guessed it. Russia! Pakistan is the last piece in the geopolitical jigsaw waiting to fall under Russia's sphere of influence. When that happens a nuclear armed Orthodox Christian power will be able to project military power in the Middle East. In the meantime Pakistani generals and incompetent and corrupt Pakistani politicians and kleptomaniacs will be laughing all the way to western banks and tax havens. Another foreign policy disaster by the Anglo-$axons led NATO coming near you soon.

Conclusion Pak needs a bailout everytime they mess up or they need to be made nuke free (much harder....). Not talking about Nukes is ignoring the elephant in the room....
There is a saying "To keep beating a dead snake to prove strength". Pakistan is dead because of bad policy and instability.

Why not implement successful co-operative model of amul in other sectors?? Farmers have greatly benefited from the model. Understand that word pakistan attract crowd, atleast end with examples like japan or Germany and their social success. It's like being happy with neighbors problem.
Japan and Germany had a huge military industrial complex. They used their industrial enterprise largely for military purposes during the 19th century. Germany wanted to counter Britain with it and Japan wanted to defeat Russia first and then USA. Both Germany and Japan lost the WW2 so badly that they decided to abandon this military industrial complex and converted that industrial enterprise for more productive purposes and look where they're now. Pakistan is a military dominated state but they mostly import their military hardware. They don't have much industrial enterprise currently to move away from militarism to more productive industrialisation.

Excellent analysis. Extremely informative. Thank you, Shekhar.
Thank you for a great episode, sir!
I liked that instead of focusing on any one thing, this episode was more of a general overview of Pakistan's current state of affairs, and what led them to this situation. There have been two significant developments in Pakistan over the last year, both of which CTC has covered extensively - the rise > fall > defiance of Imran Khan and the changing role/approach of Pakistan's Army. The last I had heard (from CTC), Imran Khan had just been shot at and elections seemed to be on the horizon and the retiring Army general had made quite an uncharacteristic speech. I wonder where both of these situations are at currently.
When SG sir talked about the time when there was 6% growth in Pak, it was a great example. Now Imagine if Politicians around the world focused majorly on development, tech and other constructive things, shedding all the petty and unnecessary stuff, setting aside differences and worked together, how our world would have developed.
But then again one can only wish such a thing can happen, cannot be too idealistic.😔😮💨
Pakistan is a classic example of the saying - "Elect a clown, expect a circus". India was lucky to have leaders like Nehru, Sardar Patel, LB shastri, Vajpayee, Dr. Manmohan Singh. While Pakistan on the other hand had a political vacuum after the death of Jinnah. This void was filled by incompetent leaders and greedy military dictators. Their short-sightedness has ruined their country.
You did not mention PV narasimha rao. Apart from Sardar Patel offered Kashmir to Pakistan in leo of Hyderabad , before meged in India and Jinnah refused because Kashmir people are same as Paksitan people

Shekhar it’s Hindus in India and Muslims in Pakistan that is the determining difference. Accept the fact I assure you that speaking truth doesn’t hurt
Lol if that was true then Indonesia and Malaysia would be poverty-stricken, instead of Myanmar and Sri Lanka. The determining difference is that India's founders weren't stupid enough to give too much importance to religion or ethnicity, whereas Pakistan's founders were stupid enough to define their entire existence on the basis of religion. The moment you get too caught up in ideology, you're done for. Doesn't matter what that ideology is - Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Communism or anything in between.

But Pakistan doesn't focus on any exports. Being a terror rich country it can't offer tourism or investments. Only remittances are somewhat saving them.
Harsh the success of Swaziland gives blueprint for success for a poor country. The king of Swaziland introduced a system based on meritocracy. Competent people were placed in positions of power. Second the resources of country were exploited for national benefit not the powerful few. A strong capitalist economy which protects private property ownership. Strong governance to prevent corruption. Respect for the rule of law. Respect for minorities within the country. Positive relations with neighbouring states. Long term stable relations with international partners. It’s the only country to recognise Taiwan and has done so for fifty years.

13:38 Your choice of colors for the plots is very poor. Apart from that, it is a nice presentation and well-researched analysis.
Pray 10 times Allah is merciful
Again excellent broadcast...top class👍
Thank god congress is not in power now, otherwise congress would not have hesitated to help Pakistan to get minority votes in power, in fact many pakistanis are regretting congress is not in power
India is still helping them via Asian bank and other similar institutions. Also, we don't want them to fail completely, because it will again disturb india only,

My adviser is *@Agent_DEBORAH01* is the analyst/brokerage-adviser. She has been of great help and her tutelage has brought me to a higher understanding of profit generation. She Understands the job perfectly.
Pakistan did a religious blunder, economic n political blunders flowed from that religious blunder. This CTC is just waste of time. SG has no spine to tell truth.
12:20: the gaay who has given you loan will half your buffalo. Hillarious
Ind should also try hard to check population.
The guy will come and take your buffalo.... what an example 😂😂.. guy le gayi bhainsh.....
Shekhar ji, we are not asking for subsidies Petrol or Diesel.
We are asking for less tax on petroleum.
Modi government has increased 30+ rs when crude oil prices were 25-30$.
At that time, Arun Jaitley and other ministers told us that they were creating a buffer and when price increases, people will not suffer.
But the Modi government has done completely the opposite and that was the problem.
Because at that point there was almost negative economic activity sir . Government has to collect money from somewhere. But I do get your point . Probably we need some Measure like taxing super rich farmers , increasing property tax , getting tough on black economy
What about when the fuel price went up ....
@@rohitkashyap1051 then that buffer should have been used to reduce burden.
But it was not done until it was very late.
The government should not behave like Munafakhore.
By the way check the petroleum minister's speech in parliament where he boosted about 4 Lakh crores of tax from petroleum and the public was paying 100+ rs for oil.
In 2014, the Indian government was earning some 70k crore from tax on petroleum. So from 70k to 4 Lakh crores.
It was like how Adani wealth grew.
@@BharatThatIsIndia
You have no idea how Adani's stock price grew....or maybe used it incorrectly.
Govt needs to provide a lot of services....where shud the money come from.
@@rohitkashyap1051 Actually nobody knows how Adani wealth grew so much during pandemic
Or everybody knows that Daal me sab kaal hai..
Prof is so happy today with "strategic Depth"
Please discuss the role of demonetisation in INDIA played in Pakistan’s financial woes
Quite interesting!
Zero. Loonies need their checkup.
@@arunsar7893 I know how hurtful it is to accept that a certain government before Modi was complicit or ineffective
Will the IMF ask Pakistan to cut down on their military expenditure and start focusing on the healthcare, education and other human development indicators?
One runs out of euphemisms for describing Pakistan's condition...economic, social and political...the mildest one is "IT IS A SCREWED UP" nation if one can be kind enough to call it as that.😊
Too late to fix it without massive falllout !!!
Thankyou for your CTC Pakistan economic .we are understand easily Pakistan economy condition..
Pakistan is the longest running comedy serial...now spiced with raunchy audio/video leaks...moved in to AO category😊
