Proposed Project: Preservation & Restoration of Two Antique Fire-engines.
Two vintage government owned "Merryweather London" fire-engines (models c1919-21) are parked in a British-era fire brigade shed at Gor Khuttree, peshawar - Pakistan. The condition of these rare antiquities is far from satisfactory. Under threat from natural elements due to neglect, the trucks are gathering dust and slowly corroding and are on the brink of being reduced to metal junk.
Sarhad Conservation Network (SCN) invites all those interested in their preservation/ restoration to share their expertise or suggestions with SCN.
SCN and a group of concerned citizens have stepped up efforts and are pressing the government to get them restored. However, funds available for their restoration are modest. SCN can provide some additional support from its own sources. With a bit of care and attention this priceless heritage can be saved. Private or professional enthusiasts skilled in assembly/ overhauling & refurbishing of antique vehicles are requested to contact SCN.
Sarhad Conservation Network is a peshawar based NGO concerned with preservation of the environment, culture and heritage of the province. Donations/ Grants are welcome. (Search "Sarhad Conservation Network" on google to find us)
The Statesman, peshawar City
The vintage fire engines await restoration, proper display
By Shaheen Buneri
peshawar: The Sarhad Conservation Network has expressed deep concern over the deteriorating condition of the two red-coloured fire engines of the pre-partition British India time and requested the authorities concerned to take timely action for their restoration.
It has asked the concerned quarters for the conservation of the vintage automobiles.
According to the SCN, the two fire engines are presently parked under a dismal-looking municipal shed of the fire brigade at Gor Gatri where the condition of these rare antiquities is far from satisfactory.
Under threat from natural elements and neglect, the engines are slowly corroding and are on the brink of being reduced to metal junk.
The name of the Merry Weather London Company that manufactured them in the early 1900s is still visible on the portions of these aged engines.
Historically, the first petrol powered fire engine made its appearance in 1903. Merry Weather built the vehicle for the Tottenham Fire Brigade in North London. Until the First World War in 1915, the manufacturers tried to produce a petrol/electric variant using dynamos to supply electricity to drive the vehicles.
Following the war, however, Merry Weather and Dennis emerged as the premier British fire engine manufacturers, concentrating solely on the petrol engine as the standard.
The services of Sufyan Saadat Kakakhel, a first year engineering student at the Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute of Engineering Sciences and Technology, are worth appreciating in highlighting the historical significance of these machines by sending e-mails and letters to the organizations working for the conservation of the historical sites and objects.
The Sarhad Conservation Network, a local NGO concerned with heritage and environment, has requested the authorities to take timely action for the proper restoration of the engines and has called for conservation of these vintage automobiles.
It has further asked for having them displayed at some other favourable place where the general public and heritage admirers may view them more enjoyably.
It has suggested the peshawar Museum or the Balahisar Fort can serve as the appropriate spots to house the engines as tourists frequently visit these places.
It is hoped the matter will be given due consideration and the vehicles will be granted proper care that they deserve because they form part of peshawar's historical legacy.

Disappointing turn of events in the last few overs with bad light being the center of attention. Umpires allowed the match to go on unduly and then allowed the Pakistan batsmen to choose when to call for bad light to stop play.

Bibi Shireen ... nawey version!! (fav song of faisal khan)
Bebi sherinay jan mere karo nazrana
tayray sar ki kassam hay dil yai mayra teyra devana
agar karna muhabat jurm hay to
may mujraim hoon mujay manzoor hay
har ik sazza oor har ik jarmana
bibi sherinay jan mare karo nazrana
tayray sar ki kassam hay dil yai mayra teyra devana
tayree yadoo nay lota chain din ka
sakoon ratoon ka nahee rah pawoon ga
may door tum say oo dil barjana
bibi sherinay jan mare karo nazrana
tayray sar ki kassam hay dil yai mayra teyra devana
ya mujay apnay dil may ghom som karoo janana
ya dil eshq ke shama banoo tom
may banoo parwana
bibi sherinay jan mare karo nazrana
tayray sar ki kassam hay dil yai mayra teyra devana

Pakistan Television (PTV) entertained millions of viewers in Pakistan all alone from 1964 to 1990. It was PTV who created classic dramas, shows, music & much much more. PTV change the shape of entertainment in Pakistan forever. PTV dramas literally emptied the roads of Pakistan. From historical to classic, from fictional to non-fictional, from serious to comedy, PTV dramas still reminds us that this is a real drama. Although in this age of cable & satellite channels when we have more than 100 channels on our TV who are transmitting 24/7, there was a time when entire Pakistan would switch on its TV from 8pm to 9pm to watch a PTV drama. We still remember those characters that made us laugh, cry & ran a chill in our spine. Those characters became our family members & they entertained us very well.
On November 26th 1964, Pakistan Television (PTV) started its transmission in Pakistan & still growing stronger. Regardless of being a government department, PTV produced the best work in country that is unmatched by any other government department. On November 26th 2006, as PTV turned 40 years old, a show was telecast about PTV's history. It was written by Anwar Maqsood & hosted by Moin Akhtar. In this show, some rare seen footage was
telecast about PTV & classic Black & White clips from 60s to the late 90s.
In this 3rs part, you can view clips from Zia Mohiuddin Show from the 70s plus a very surprise performance from a person that will drop your jaw on the floor.

Video Presentation of the After Myths of the Atomic Test in CHagai on 28th and 30th of may.
This tug-of-war that has been going on since almost 58 years has brought the masses to the point of no return. Challenge before them is clear-they have to bury the perception for all times that Pakistan was created for the army and that it can only be kept together by the military. And that, no more barrel of the gun will be the source of power. If Pakistan has to stay, it will be its people who shall be the sole sovereign rulers.
By opting the role of human condoms, Pakistan's otherwise anorchous generals have sold Pakistan's vital national interests. General Pervez Musharraf chosen as the blue-eyed 'democratic' leader by the West of one of the "most militarised states" in the world keeps getting pats of legitimacy on his back not from his own people but from President Bush for being his Knight Templar in war against what they call Islamic terrorism and executioner of President Bush's grand design for "enhancing uncertainties abroad".
Balochistan faced death in the face of Drought, Radio activity, leukimia, cancer and Numerous gentical diseasesLike Yahya he is drunk with the support of his foreign mentors who only know expediency as the name of their game. The free hand given to Musharraf in the name of their war against terrorism, to carry on genocide against his own people in Balochistan, to deny the people of Pakistan their right to rule through a democratic civil society, their share in resources and provincial autonomy-it is nothing but an agenda for total disaster in the region.Though Balochistan has nothing to do with taliban or alqaida, these people are nationalist fighting for their rights.weapons given to fight against terrorism being used on balochis.(SHAME)
