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
Baig sahib, make it
Baig, your comment has made me smile. That was very funny :)
“Chalani Civic, tey maarni Sheikhian!”
The “who cares” factor should be applied here because it should not matter. Several countries have citizens pay a little more to have their names customized on the plate. This is no different from having political stickers etc on your car. I don’t know pakistan’s plating convention but if this plate falls under it then it should’nt be a big deal. Also, does pakistani law requires both front and back plates or accepts only front plate and the back plate can be anything??? If they are breaking the law…thats just sad!
It is a criminal offence to display Registration Plates other than the prescribed Size, Shape, Colours, Lettering Sizes,Tempering ones officially issued. The vehicle Registration codes are absolutely clear on this.
The traffic police all over the country and particularly Pakistan’s Finest of Islamabad pay ZERO attention to this Crime.
It is a well known fact that all criminal elements and particularly the terrorists and Car-bombers are using Fake Plates.
Who cares.
