#1 Itâs time that agriculture sector is organized on a well-planned footing ...

Um, you might want to check out how well that "planning" thing worked in the Soviet Union.

#2 Oh yes, that backward Indian economy is just desperate to hitch its star to the powerhouse that is Pakistan.

Uh huh.

#3 meat/live animals, potatoes, tomatoes, onion and garlic

Sort of a food octagon.

#4 ''We do not deem it appropriate to resort to imports of even meat and vegetables from India to meet their shortage''

#5 As I read it, this is a serious attack on Musharraf's leadership and administration which not only failed to plan and execute correct agricultural policy, it also fell into the trap the Indians have planned for a long time (and which other regimes avoided).

Note also the subtle theme that international trade relations are inherently to be avoided if possible, rather than being a sign of a mature and dynamic economy. Islamicism at work in this editorial, folks.
