Watch “Motherland” to see how coal mining has stripped the people of Tharparkar of their land, livelihoods, and self-sufficiency. Forced off their homes with little to no compensation, they face poverty and hardship despite years of legal battles. youtu.be/Kjh5UomqpZY?si=rATM…

Internet shutdown in Islamabad/Rawalpindi today is absolutely disproportionate, unnecessary, & unconstitutional.
Shutting down networks & roads creates more panic & has a huge economic impact. State must learn this rather than undermining its own citizenry repeatedly. #KeepItOn
