Breaking News ki shaandaar kaamiyabi ke baad ab paish hai "Breaking Blog"

Breaking News ki shaandaar kaamiyabi ke baad ab paish hai "Breaking Blog"

Concluding Episode of Bol Geo Bol
(Hum Bol-ay ga tou Bol-o gey ke Bol-ta hai)

Just to refresh your memories I'm copying a paragraph of my blog published a couple of days back... 

"Gossip #2: Mr. Azhar Abbas the Managing Director Geo News is on leave from the first week of July and to be precise from July 2, 2013.. He was supposed to fly for his annual leaves with his family on the 10th of July but he didn't... Some people say he stayed because he never had a plan to go abroad for vacations this year and had to join Bol Network during his leaves and some people say he never was on the leave he has simply resigned and stopped coming to work from first week of july... Hazraaat's source at Geo told me that the day his leaves were started that was the day the management was told that he'll not come back or rejoin his office...  But then Mir Ibrahim Rahman requested him to please come back and he joined office for a couple days after July 10, 2013... I was also told that MIR met Azhar Abbas a couple of weeks back at hotel in KHI but the negotiations could not get to any conclusion... And Mr. Abbas is most likely joining Bol Network right after eid holidays.."

And now the concluding part!!!

"Dear Team Geo,

I write this email with a heavy heart. A heavy heart because I have come to conclusion that there is only so much that I can do for all of you, while working here.
It is only due to you that we realised the dream of making Geo the premier news channel of the country.
Any leader in my position would struggle to count their blessings. It was a rare and distinctive privilege to lead a team with such creativity, professionalism and commitment. ??...
As you extended unflinching support to me, I assure you I was equally committed to your professional excellence and better working conditions. I acknowledge I may not have been able to deliver all I wanted. But, I am sure, this will remain an ongoing process and soon you will work under better terms and conditions.??
And now for the most difficult bit: I have decided to leave and pursue other career options.
I have faith in your ability and I am sure GeoNews's quality and place in the market will remain unaltered. No matter what you do make sure your commitment to excellence remains singular and Geo will continue to fly.
A part of me will always remain here. But I am taking with me the desire to build an organisation that not only excels in journalism but also offers better working conditions for journalists.
I wish Geo and each one of you the best of luck. I will not even try and thank you for all your hard work and support for words fail me.??
Love and Regards?
Yours??
Azhar Abbas"
