Haval Pakistan Announces Good News About Car Prices

  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...

Jamaat-e-Islami's Planned Sit-in Protest in Islamabad

 Islamabad, Pakistan** - The Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) party has recently announced a rescheduling of its planned sit-in protest at Islamabad's D-Chowk. Initially set for July 12, the demonstration has been moved to July 26 due to the religious observance of Muharram.


**Purpose of the Protest**


The protest aims to highlight various issues related to economic mismanagement and the rising cost of living in Pakistan. JI leader Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman has vocally criticized the government's handling of economic policies, particularly the increase in electricity and petrol prices, which he argues have disproportionately burdened ordinary citizens. The protest is also intended to challenge the government's adherence to International Monetary Fund (IMF) directives, which the JI claims overlook crucial sectors such as education and healthcare.


**Expected Impact**


The sit-in is expected to attract thousands of participants from across the country, potentially leading to significant security measures and disruptions in Islamabad. Authorities are likely to impose roadblocks and vehicle checks, particularly in sensitive areas such as the Red Zone. Localized transport disruptions and increased traffic congestion are anticipated.


**Security Measures**


In preparation for the protest, local authorities may enforce Section 144, which restricts public gatherings and the carriage of arms, to prevent any violent outbreaks. Security personnel will monitor the protest closely, and any overly disruptive crowds are likely to be dispersed. The public is advised to avoid the protest area to minimize the risk of violence and ensure their safety.


The JI has also hinted at the possibility of a nationwide strike if their demands are not met, aiming to pressurize the government into revising its economic policies to ease the financial burden on the populace.


**Conclusion**


As the JI prepares for its rescheduled protest, the government's response and the potential for widespread disruption remain key points of concern. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between the government and opposition groups over economic policies and their impact on everyday Pakistanis.
