What Did We Vote For?

The people of Pakistan who voted in hope of amelioration of their living conditions, relief from soaring prices and peace of minds are now getting really frustrated with the change their votes have produced. The change for better for which they exercised their right on 18th Feb. have brought nothing more than a stalemate on an issue which isn’t the cause of bother for a common man who is suffering from lack of food, water and electricity coupled with the load of rocketing prices on his shoulders.

Did we vote for this? No!!

Completely agreeing with Gul Riaz on his post (PDA Must Break) at the TPS, people are now asking for results, or at least some hope for them. It’s high time that the parties whose agenda was just the restoration of few men separate their path and let those parties who are more practical to people’s issues take the driving seat. The PML(N) has dragged the PPP in a difficult situation. The solution to this unholy marriage is a quick divorce.

The more natural alliances of PPP, PML(Q) and the MQM together with ANP and JUI(F) (these parties aren’t even taken onboard the negotiations abroad) may not bring back Chaudhry Iftikhar, but they will settle the dust on the issue of judiciary once and for all.

My previous post on financial and economic crisis also highlights why the PML(N) should just quit immediately because of their extreme lack of focus on issues other that judiciary despite having their men in lucrative ministries.
