While leading automakers such as Pak Suzuki and Kia have raised vehicle prices following the implementation of new taxes under the Federal Budget 2025–26, Sazgar Engineering has taken a different approach. In an official announcement, the company stated that it will absorb the cost of the newly introduced New Energy Vehicles (NEV) Adoption Levy. As a result, Haval vehicle prices will remain unchanged. This decision comes at a time when Pak Suzuki Motor Company and Kia Lucky Motors increased their prices, citing the increased sales tax rate and additional levies introduced in the new fiscal policy. Suzuki models like the Alto, Cultus, and Swift saw noticeable price hikes, while Kia increased rates across most of its popular vehicles, including Sportage and Picanto. Sazgar, on the other hand, emphasized its commitment to customer welfare by maintaining price stability. “As a responsible and customer-focused organization, Sazgar has consistently taken proactive measures to protect t...
The recent news of an ailing African elephant at the Karachi Zoo has stirred emotions among animal lovers and experts alike. The 17-year-old elephant, who underwent emergency treatment for a tumor in early April, collapsed in its pen days later and has since been unable to stand up. The question now on everyone's mind is whether the elephant should be euthanized or not.
According to zoo officials, animal experts are closely monitoring the elephant's condition and will make a decision in the coming days. The decision to euthanize an animal is never an easy one, but it is a necessary one when an animal is suffering and there is no hope for recovery.
In this case, the elephant's condition has deteriorated rapidly since its emergency treatment, and it has been unable to stand up for over a week. The elephant's caretakers have been trying to keep it comfortable by providing it with food and water, but its condition has not improved.
Animal rights activists have been calling for the elephant to be transferred to a sanctuary, but zoo officials have maintained that the elephant's condition is too critical to move it. They have also cited the lack of facilities and resources at the Karachi Zoo to adequately care for the elephant.
The debate over whether to euthanize the elephant or not is a difficult one. On one hand, euthanasia would end the elephant's suffering and prevent further deterioration of its health. On the other hand, the decision to euthanize an animal is not one to be taken lightly, and it raises ethical questions about the value of animal life.
In the end, the decision to euthanize the elephant should be based on the best interests of the animal. If there is no hope for recovery and the elephant is suffering, then euthanasia may be the most humane option. However, this decision should not be made lightly, and experts should consider all possible options before making a final decision.
The fate of the Karachi Zoo elephant remains uncertain, but one thing is certain – the welfare and wellbeing of animals in captivity should be a top priority for all zoos and animal caretakers. It is our responsibility to ensure that animals are given the best possible care and treatment, and that their lives are not unnecessarily prolonged when there is no hope for recovery.
