Committee organizer Sidra Humaid announced bankruptcy, assuring women that she will return their money. Wait does that mean uska naam sidra humaid nahin hai? It could be anything. Pakistani women lost millions of rupees in this online committee system as Entrepreneur Sidra Humaid announces bankruptcy.

Hundreds of Pakistani women have reportedly lost millions of rupees in an online committee system, led by a woman named Sidra Humaid. Almost a week ago, after years of running an online committee system, Humaid issued a public apology and announced that she had gone bankrupt. Sidra Humaid sounds like a name that you use when you have to set up your 100th Gmail account and you’ve run out of names. There is a girl on fb sidra humaid who announced bankruptcy 3 days back, it’s said that she have did fraud of 49CR. I know a mutual she invested 38Lac and now she is not replying anybody.

3 online businesses, strong social media backing, 117 committees & a scam of 42 crore or even more. Anna Delvey of Pakistan is here. Sidra Humaid declared herself BANKRUPT & mostly women have lost millions of their hard earned money in the name of ‘savings’. That’s why we need financial advise regarding savings through proper channels. Can State Bank of Pakistan regulate such interest free transactions? I know about being sharia compliant committee system. Any other information that women can get help from? McDonald’s effect will be soon, you’ll see these bubbles bursting as we approach towards recession. 420 Millions are nothing, Pakistanis are losing billions in terms of money devaluation.

A horrible tale of embezzlement. Search her name on Facebook. TLDR; spent all the money, tried to rollover debts and pay from new deposits, again spend more money, now announcing bankruptcy. Sidra Humaid scammed naive women for 420 million via facebook and our law enforcement do not want to take legal action because there is no documentation this country is going into shits. Anyway. Talk to you later I am trying to write a 1000 words essay on how we should all aspire to be Sidra Humaid. Pakistani women lose Millions of rupees via various Facebook groups operated by entrepreneur ‘Sidra Humaid’. If you ask moms/dadis they all sound apalled at the idea of being in committees with strangers on the internet, and say they would only ever run them with close relatives/friends. That being said, I’ve read that Sidra Humaid was a staple in many women’s lives. She held dars.

Not sure if i should feel bad for the ladies whose money is confiscated by sidra humaid or be happy that they will finally learn to not trust someone else with their money.

The latest status of metro bus is here and you can get real time info about today metro bus is open or not in Islamabad, Lahore and Karachi. You can also get the new Islamabad airport metro bus route map with stations and the fare and tickets.

Swift & speedy decisions. Straight after coming into office, PM Shehbaz Sharif has directed the Capital Development Authority to launch the metro bus service between Peshawar Mor and Islamabad International Airport as soon as possible..preferably from the coming Saturday onwards. It was initiated by Nawaz Sharif government. PTI government failed to complete it in all these years despite spending 16 billion rupees.

Looking forward to some more important steps in public interest. Major fixes to infrastructure could not only drive innovation – but increase opportunities to challenge regional issues all across the country. We are very happy to hear about opening service of new part of metro service in Islamabad. The truth is that PMLN has always believed in a democratic government that works for the people and what is better than speedy work. Saw Metro test drive from Islamabad to Benazir international Airport today and it was great.

Islamabad metro that was to connect the city to the airport and was 3 years in the making will become functional in 5 days following Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif go ahead. There’s a reason why he’s called Shehbaz speed. You are a rockstar, sir. Prime Minister paid early morning visit to Islamabad Metro (Peshwar Morr site). The extension project couldn’t be completed in past 4 years. Orders inquiry of the delay to fix responsibility and quick completion of the remaining work.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also ordered the authorities to extend the metro bus to Lahore-Islamabad (M2) motorway and prepare a feasibility report for a new section connecting Rawat to Peshawar Mor. On the directives of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, the divisional administration will start work on the metro bus service project from Rawat to Faizabad next week. PM Shahbaz Sharif orders CDA and NHA to functional Peshawar Mor – Islamabad airport metro bus service within 5 days. Inauguration expected on April 16th.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has regretted the delay of four years in the completion of the Peshawar Morr to New Islamabad International Airport Metro Bus project.

If i may draw your attention towards the land department’s website doesn’t work overseas; it works fine in Pakistan but doesn’t work for us in overseas; home page works fine but when we click on registry search or online fard both inner links doesn’t work. Called & email concerned department but they aren’t willing to accept the errors in their website, have to lodge the complaint in PM portal; please direct concern authorities to get this fixed to facilitate overseas Pakistanis.

I got my card yesterday and the fee was 2000 per Marla. N I don’t live in some rural area. It’s main Rawalpindi. West ridge. Patwaris still minting money.

Apparently my parents used to get this jam in Lahore in the 1960s and remember it fondly, so I decided to try it today. (can anyone from Pakistan confirm whether this was available in Lahore in the 1960s, or am I making that up?)

Thank you for all the responses. I’m happy that this triggered nice family memories for others. All the orange marmalade comments reminded me: my parents were always fans of marmalade in Dhaka in 80s, even though I learned from my father that the apple jam (not mango) was more popular in the hostels in the 1960s. My parents attended government college and Fatimah Jinnah medical college respectively. My most favorite from Mitchell’s Marmalades’ is Rose and Lime Marmalade. Had it decades ago but can’t forget the pleasure it gave to my taste buds.

Always been available. Comes from the Mitchell’s Fruit farms in Renala Khurd. I think MPA-Friday Times’ Jugnu Mohsin’s father owns it. But now there’s a new brand named ‘Renala Orchards’, very similar to the Mitchel’s; lately the taste of Mitchel’s products has changed for worse. Someone told me that there was a dispute between the partners and they have parted ways. Any update on that please? Mitchell’s is still very popular. They have a lot of product. Still like their chilly garlic sauce better than any Ketchup to go with desi snacks.

I distinctly remember the mango jam but Mitchell’s Orange Marmalade was my go-to breakfast condiment. Mitchells’ farms in Renala Khurd are worth a visit. Same here, mate! And they had a beautiful cricket ground, surrounded by their orchard. Had the pleasure of playing cricket there a few times during school days & then early in my service days. Their Orange Marmalade, now know as Golden Mist, is a must-have at our homes.

The brand for products was Kissan. Which continued in India after partition. And became Mitchell’s in Pakistan. Our family used it in the 70s and 80s. I also have fond memories of it being used at breakfast time and at afternoon tea time. Both times, the whole family would gather at the dining table. Probably way before 60’s. Michelle’s still exists & their marmalade is the best. There was an apple jelly and orange marmalade my mom used to bring from Pakistan of Mitchells and they tasted so good. I vividly remember that my father used to buy Mitchels Apricot jam.

Mitchell’s farm belong to the family that owns Lums, packages group etc. One of the oldest if not the oldest family that was known. Mitchell was a pre independence brand and juggun the host is also from the family. So yes this is quiet possible. Mitchell’s jams & jellies were always an important part of our breakfast table . Their Apple Jelly & Apricot jam were , & maybe still are,out of this world. My dad was a fan of their orange marmalade.

Mitchell’s farm and our School in Renala Khurd was separated by just a wall. Farm was full of fruits, lush green trees, & sound’s of birds.There was a cricket ground too in the farms. I Visited their factory in renala khurd district okara during college tour in 2007-2008 and they told us they are in business since 1933 without any losses. It was the staple jam in Pakistan along with Mitchell’s marmalade. I was too little in the 60s, but I’ve seen it in my home from my earliest memories.

Gujranwala will have its own beach very soon. ARY Laguna Gujranwala prices of plots are reasonable and the opening is just around the corner. What if the ocean is hundreds of miles away from Gujranwala, ARY is all set to bring the ocean or at least a beach to Gujranwala very soon.

But the citizens of Gujranwala are not happy. Not just because that they know that they won’t be able to afford it but because of various other civic issues. One person said,”We don’t have access to drinking water. This will lower the water table by 10 more feet”. Others are rightly pointing out that first provide people clean drinking water, clean the garbage and then think about such luxuries.

This is very common, they will make a big pond and then will do the construction. For a reference check Jumairah Island Dubai. They did construction in cluster shaped and covered those clusters with water. It certainly seems like a pipe dream though as just like there are six lane highways and beautiful parks in Government planning books, probably the same marketing department is at work here.

On a lighter side, it seems they have wiped out the rain water out of Gujranwala with the help of a wiper. And eventually that water became the sea. Now look at the picture again. Or may be ARY channel is capable of showing a sea in Gujranwala. Its not the first time ARY made false claims to fool public. How is there a freaking ocean in the middle of Punjab? ARY employees are drunk? May be they have turned all heaps of garbage into an ocean.

ARY laguna Karachi or elsewhere will be biggest scam in Pakistan’s real estate history.
