I was alerted of this development earlier in the afternoon courtesy of blogger Farhan where he wrote a blog post The Terrible Blunder at Presidency. Caught up in work, I made a mental note to check it out in detail, but at 9pm Geo reportedly carried a news item along the same lines showing picture after picture where the Presidency had apparently removed all pictures of Quaid-e-Azam
Having a close look at the picture you see four portraits namely Asif Zardari, Bilawal Bhutto, Benazir Bhutto and followed by Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, nowhere do we see the portraits of the Founder of the Nation Quaid-e-Azam Mohd Ali Jinnah or for that matter Allama Iqbal.
I hope this is just an accidental mistake and there is no attempt by the idiot President to alter our history in anyway whatsoever.

This is no accident……..
Was Quaid-E-Azam's picture there on this wall in the background earlier? Was it actually removed from that particular wall?
what is bilawal photo doing there?
No Unaiza, it doesnt mean that they actually threw out the pic, it means they should have put Quaid-e-Azam pic on the wall. none of them on the wall are Pakistan's hero
we are stupid to think that zardari would respect the father of our nation cus he only respect Quaid-e-azam on currency notes, the person who killed his wife to get the presidency loves nobody bu himself.
i am waiting for the day when he will have his picture on currency notes.
zardari is an asshole.
Thanks for following up. I am waiting for the day when Zardari will be thrown out of the Presidency !
i do not believe this ! zardari is really a downright idiot ! @$#*BEEP* go die zardari and his a$$ociated leaders in their very own shit
you guys deserve this i.e. all who call for democracy deserve Zardari.
Is it not enough that you have tried both democracy and dictatorship? both kuffar systems, who has given you the worst amongst you as your rulers?
it is time that the ruling system of Allah the Khilafah be established http://www.khilafah.com/
Well, this is a graphic display of thinking of our 'leadership'. They think that everything around them in Pakistan — including ordinary Pakistanis — are their property.
Few days back when AAZ was is Karachi, in one of speeches he said that he doesn't want Bilawal and Altaf Hussain's daughter to sit in opposition… Wait a minute. We are a democratic state and not a kingdom that our current head of state is suggesting that who is going to replace him.
Apparently, 2day politicians have forgot founders.pk Qauid-e-Azam and Allama Iqbal ideology.
Our plight started when Liaquat Ali Khan assassinated, since then Ayub to Mush now Zardari we are in deep chaos.
Politics is perverse and rulers are rascals who are stapling their rule under the guise of democracy which many find repugnant since Zardari came into presidency.

I think zardari lost his brain
power corrupts
and
absolute power…..
I think that it wont be long before this monkey is kicked out from president house by army.
This is sad more than 80% of the people want Zardari behind the bars but they even can not throw him out of presidency. You can imagine how helpless nation we became, waiting Army or America to throw him out of Presidency.
In Pakistan corruption and Paisa Bole. Pakistan and corruption go together.
if all of jinnah's portraits have truly been removed from the president's residence, i think that is a good thing. the present occupants – along with most past ones – are not fitting company for jinnah.
JEO Zardari and Jeo Kiyani
now we are crying that Quaid's picture was removed,well president house of pakistan is now full of bastards and its being used as a wedding hall so its really disrespectful to place Quaid's picture on the walls at such a place which is full of bullshit so instead of crying its better to give our vote in next elections and get rid of this current … Read Moregoverment and get back our Quaid's picture back in president house because if we keep on sleeping then now its president house later it would be national assembly and then the currency note and we end up watching pictures of bhuttos all over.
and have you guys noticed how shamelessly Zardari and his mafia (PPP) is using Govt money to promote Bilawal Zardari's phooto on major newspaper ads….
well its easy for Mr Zardari to come clean, "I'm sure the Muslims Extremists from FATA have done this"
i am just waiting how will ppp defend this move.
Pakistan ka ALLAH hi hafiz ho….
This Rubbish Person having no concerned and love with our national heros.He knows only one thing that is "MONEY"…….
Teeth, as soon as Quaid-e-Azam's was laid to rest so were his ideals of a tolerant society for Pakistan. Disposing of Quaid's picture is merely a formality. At least Zardari is honest and shows as it is. We should commend him for this rare show of honesty. It’s the politicians who have hung pictures of Quaid on every wall so to speak but never follow his ideals that we need to condemn for hypocrisy.

Those who opposed Pakistan tooth and nail are the greatest benefactors form it after its creation.
I think the report by a private channel is totally false and also ill-behaved. I believe media should review its attitude. If it hasn't got anything nice to say about anybody then it must not malign individuals also. These news are just to increase number of viewers n dats all!!!!The mad race for TRP ratings, have made most of the country’s channels go to any extent, totally forgetting its social responsibility.It is high time media houses rose above petty and fictional stories just for the sake of competition and play a much bigger role in the nation-building process..!!!!!

The news media are, for the most part, the bringers of bad news… and it's not entirely the media's fault, bad news gets higher ratings and sells more papers than good news. hohohohoho n dat report was one of the examples.

I agree with Javed and jus want to add that media should also keep its record straight. It seems a conspiracy against federation. This report looks a "desperate story" n one more thing is none of reporters from Islamabad reported this. There is an urgent need for a total change in the entire perspective of TV channels. They have to fix priorities and change the entire approach. They have to be serious. There are tons of issues in Pakistan, so why can’t these channels address those issues. They should understand that news is a serious business.

Oh for fuck's sake. Have any of you lot bothered expanding an image and taking a closer look? It's photoshopped: look at the light/reflection on Bilawal's photo and then on Benazir and Zardari's photos.
I'm no fan of Asif Zardari or the PPP, but you people really take deluded reactionary politics to a new level.
And shame, Teeth Maestro, for stirring up a controversy where there isn't one.
p.s. Further, the photo's been doctored by the APP, which is the state news agency. Any seasoned observer of Pakistani politics and the press should know that the APP will go ass backwards in trying to endear itself to those in power.
This is simply beauty of Photo shop very good TOOL good job boy THAT IS FAKE GUYS RELAX . RASHID MEHMOOD (AWAAM)
RASHID MEHMOOD,
You sound like a ppp fundooo!!!
photoshop!!!!
aaaaahhhhhhhhaaaaa.
brilliant minds of pakistan came up with the briliant explaination….THE PHOTOSHOP…yehhhhhh
"THAT PICTURE WAS AN OFFICIAL HANDOUT FROM PRESIDENCY"
now!not only officials of APP,GEO and bloggers can send behind bars but also the presidency officials can set on trial for fraud.
sounds like a perfect conspiracy theory.
LOL addressing the Photoshop allegation as well – this image is the exact same picture as found from the APP.com.pk website
http://www.app.com.pk/photo/photo_lib/25-06-2009/…
Serioulsy – is this Farhatullah Babar or Sheerin Mazari visiting our forums coz they too are all up in arms saying this is a conspiracy theory against them – LOL Funny a deja vu of the God Gaad controversy of barely a year back – and even then they were accusing everyone else of lying and in fact it turned out to be an embarrassment for the idiot in the Pakistani white house – blinded Jiyalay are to be found every where
Tum sab chootye ho hmesha lund main haddi talash kartay rahtay ho , Bhoshri kay yeh bataoo yeh Mr. Jinah ka Pakistan Hai kiya ……???
Yeh Mr. Bhotto ka Pakistan hai !
keyonkay East Pakistan ko us nay Military kay sath mil kar alag kiya tha , us kam main Jamatee bhi gan maranay main shareek thay

Thanks for following up. I am waiting for the day when Zardari will be thrown out of the Presidency !
Ver Funny and I agree
This is lesson for Pakistani nation because the did not respect the great president Pervez Musharraf,& as He said Pakistan ka ALLAH hi hafiz ho
shame on u people,it didnt matter you should first think of yourself,beghrat quam ka begharat sadar
@Teeth Maestro: I was referring exactly to that very image on the APP website. If you really can't see that it's been photoshopped, then you're seriously pixel-challenged.
And as for Shireen Mazari, she's in YOUR party, not the PPP (which is not my party, for the record). You're trying too hard to laugh off a very serious and genuine question over the credibility of what you have reported. Have the decency to research and retract.
@danial seriously rather then merely stating the image is fake show us where its been photoshopped – don't be like a jiyala – I am ready to say and mayne accept a presidentail explanation "that it was a mistake and the pictures were on the other wall" but sadly the fiasco is hovering around proving that the image is a lie – it aint – unless u can show the exact same image with the pictures intact and NOT merely phtoshopped
Until then go rest your jiyalapan for another day – it aint workin here 😉
As stated earlier, I'm no jiyala and have no affiliation or affection for the PPP.
I don't possess an archive of photos from that very hall in the presidency; but you should seriously get a second opinion from anyone who's ever worked on Photoshop or Corel. They'll tell you the same thing.
I can fully believe Zardari to be someone who replaces photos of Jinnah with those of his wife/family. But that photo is not proof, it's fake.
I'll leave it at that.
PLEASE STOP this Ahmed Quraishi style doubting of people's patriotism.
Obviously this picture has been taken in the family section of the Presidency and the pictures on the wall are of the Bhutto-Zardari family. Stupid of someone to let these guys be photographed in the family section. But there are many pictures of the Quaid-e-Azam in the Presidency as is obvious in many recent photos from there.

President House name must be change in to "MAKKARI HOUSE" means "ZARDARI HOUSE"
FUK ZARDARI!! KIK HIM OUT OF PRESIDENCY!!
For God's sake, this is just one part of the lobby of the Presidency. Everyone who has ever been in power in Pakistan has their picture up, inclusive of Zia and Musharraf. The Quaid's pictures are very much present in the Presidency, as evident from pictures of Karzai's visit. Can we please get a grip and quit the self-righteous patriotism? What is all the damn hue and cry about?
Kiaa Pakistani Fauj main abb sirf Chakkey rah gaey hain? Jo Zardari jaisey gandoo President house main bethey hain
Just corroborated with APP's site. Shame on Zardari! As for us Pakistani's, lets promise to ourselves that we will never stoop so low and be at level with the likes of zardari. This means:
1. We will not do what these soul-less corrupt, good for nothing bag of slimes do to further their own cause at the expense of justice, good governance and law
2. We will not entertain these morons either.
3. We will not be entertained by them, so if you're in the cricket team and you get invited to the presidency and you dont see the picture of Quaid, leave. Have the balls for once!
shame on you zardari.. you are not eligible to rule anymore.. your pathetic management and policies has cursed our country.. and this was the biggest error of your ruthless scenario.. PPP should shame on their leader.
