Writes for Dawn.
Hedged claims are ones written with attribution or uncertainty (“reportedly”, “according to”). A higher rate is not a fault: it is often careful sourcing. How these are measured.

New AJK government’s task
🔮 Given the PML-N’s clear majority in the assembly, the election of a new AJK president of the PML-N’s choice will likely be a formality. assertive

Discussions on terrorism
🔮 I am sure that more frequent discussions in the legislative bodies would not only contribute to finding more effective ways in which the menace of terrorism can be combated at the people’s level, but the attention given by the legislators to this issue would further boost security personnel’s morale. assertive

Avoiding transparency
🔮 IN January this year, the National Assembly passed a private member’s bill to amend Section 138 of the Elections Act, 2017, which may blunt, if not totally reverse, the legal requirement of making public the submitted annual statements of assets and liabilities by national and provincial legislators by the Election Commission of Pakistan. assertive

After the emergency
🔮 Besides debating whether the emergency would be imposed or not, the media had also been speculating about the specific article in Part X ‘Emergency Provisions’ of the Constitution that would be finally invoked. assertive
