Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors

There is no implementation in this regard… Gutka is now available at every pan shop in Karachi…. I am user of Gutka and I am worried about my health and future, I have tried a lot but I did not get rid from this bad habbit….. I USES KAMI GUTKA PREPARED AND DISTRIBUTE ONLY IN QAYYUMABAD….. IN KAMI GUTKA I HAVE FOUND AFEEM SEVERAL TIMES….. I think this is the only reason that I and many others like me cannot leave it…
OWNER OF KAMI GUTKA GIVES RUPEES 5000/- EVERY WEEK TO POLICE CHOUKI IN QAYYUMABAD “C” AREA. AND SELLING THIS BRAND WITHOUT ANY WORRY…
I REQUEST TO HIGHER AUTHORITIES TO TAKE A PROMPT ACTION TO PERMANENTLY BAN GUTKA IN ALL OVER PAKISTAN SPECIALLY IN KARACHI… AND ALSO BAN IMPORT OF GUTKA FROM INDIA (JM, CITY, PAN PARAG, etc)
SPECIALLY NEED PERSONAL ATTENTION OF:
PRIME MINISTER OF PAKISTAN.
CHIEF MINISTER OF PAKISTAN.
WAZEER ALA SINDH
CITY NAZIM
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!! BAN IT OR GET READY TO EXTEND BEDS IN CANCER WARD IN HOSPITALS IN PAKISTAN.
GOOK LUCK PAKISTAN!!!!
I guess the ban was for almost a week. It is better to slowly implement this and there is a need to rid Karachi of this terrible thing. I was pretty surprised that shopkeepers [almost all i visited] don’t sell such items…. and people in Karachi are usually found munching on one of these items
