Emergency declared in Pakistan
By: Salman Alvi
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: Pakistani president Gen. Pervez
Musharraf declared a state of emergency in Pakistan on Saturday ahead
of a crucial Supreme Court ruling on his future as president,
suspending the constitution, replacing the chief justice and cutting
communications in the capital.
The government halted all television transmissions in major cities
other than state-controlled Pakistan TV. Telephone service in the
capital, Islamabad, was cut.
A copy of the emergency order justified the declaration on the grounds
that "some members of the judiciary are working at cross purposes with
the executive" and "weakening the government's resolve" to fight
terrorism.

better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
