This Charade Should End Once For All

Its been few days since the Supreme court’s decesion regarding Sharif brothers eligibility to contest a national or provincial election. After the announcement both a rival parties are at logger heads with each other, PML(N) with their rhetoric that they had been cleverly duped by the head of the state and the co chairperson of the PPP, and PPP saying on the other hand that as the decision came from the epic court in the country, PML(N) should respect the decision and lodge an appeal if they want to(as they themselves had always been sober throughout their political history). But in regard to this particular scenario a few questions should be asked to the president of the PML(N) and a two time prime minister of this country.

• Who is responsible in first place to help PPP install a person as president of the country whose only conspicuous contribution to the country is that he helped us get to the number two slot among the world’s most corrupt countries according to transparency international statistics of nineties.

• Why he all along played the revenge politics theory (in regard to the previous dictatorial regime of General Musharaf) and ignored NRO when he was of the belief that Mr Zardari might reinstate the judiciary of 2nd November, 2007

• Why is he whining now, didn’t he know Zardari, hasn’t he learned any lesson from history.

All in all Mr 10 percent had played his cards pretty well. He not only got the most powers as a civilian president but also outplayed and out manoeuvred his opponents.

In my opinion Mr Nawaz Sharif is himself responsible for this, because why the hell he trusted a shrewd person, who has a track record of being notorious in politics. One is reminded of the politically turbulent nineties when both these parties used to be at each other’s throats, now the charade has started again. The age old blame game has started again and the stupid and naive population is again partly on the streets destroying the very public property they have strenuously paid in the form of taxes to be built.

Are we growing collectively as a nation or we are sinking deeper in to that quagmire of personal agendas and benefits, well surely the history and the present tells us that latter is the answer. Why we haven’t been able to build a stable democratic system in the last sixty years, well in my opinion the very reason for this failure is the inability to educate our masses and evolve political awareness in the country. Shame on us as a nation that we are trusting the same people again and again whom we have given appropriate chances to prove themselves to be this nation’s true leaders.
