The Case of Governance in Pakistan: Shafaqna Exclusive

Zulqarnain Sewag

SHAFAQNA PAKISTAN (Shia News Agency)

Pakistan is rich in natural resources but very poor in their management. Since its inception, especially after the saddest demise of the Great Quaid, it is remained under the control of money mongers and power hunters. No one has ever been sincere with this dear homeland except ZAB up to an extent. This is a country which has given these politicians, businessmen and feudal lords a place to born but they have proved traitors and are cheating with their motherland. Name any ruler who has ruled this naïve country and you will find his tenure full of corrupt and gluttony activities. So far what has blessed these politicians? Nothing. Their political manifestos are mere pack of lies and dreams which will never come true. When all these traditional parties whether religious or political are one man show, how will they make the country democratic? These dictatorial parties just accommodate each other on the cost of national development. These politicians are grave burden on we nation as they are failed to deliver in any sector of national life. The mantra of motorway, nuclear explosions of 1998 and now metro bus, who does not know the reality of these slogans? The all sensible people of this country know and they must know about the facts happening in this country. These politicians have never uttered truth. There politics is the politics of interests, hypocrisy, biasness, power and money oriented. Neither their motto has ever been the service of this nation and nor it will be any more. Bleak hopelessness prevails all around. We have always one flood and deluge after another. Why? And then there is obliteration and a series of disasters and famines, why all these on us? Who are actually responsible? Mullahs say disasters are curse of nature on we people. There is a simple question whether are all sins committed by the poor? Are the palaces of the rich sin free? Why there is no curse on them? Is God only angry with those who are already in destitution, in tatters and shatters? Is this the justice of Nature? This is no curse but mismanagement by the executive and exploitation of the poor by the rich. The gigantic corruptions scandals of the incumbent government are in dock and unbridled. They have looted this nation, evaded tax and built castles and businesses abroad. They are ruling here when their all belongings are out of the country. How are they good administrators? There is no basic, effective and structural change in the lives of the people of Punjab to whom they are ruling for last thirty years. But every second the volume of their assets is going doubled. The whole business of chicken, sugar, milk, steel etc is of the ruling family. Artificial shortage of necessity goods is created and then prices are hiked. Is this governance mantra in Punjab? What about the economic agenda on the basis of that they are going to change the destiny of this nation, the whole plan which is based on loan? The loan which this government has taken in just one year we have not taken since independence. Any why loan, are we not so resourceful? And loans are only to serve the donors’ interests and corrupt tactics of politicians and bureaucrats. Can anybody tell what we have actually developed or built with the borrowed money? Is there any new developed public welfare project since 1975’s? What shameful and brutal steps this government is enchanting nowadays; they show its embarrassment, incapability, incapacity and stupidity. How forcefully protests are stopped and jailed, transporters are threatened, cities are containerized, unarmed people are directly fired and killed, big businesses are tax exempted, kith and kin are bestowed, national exchequer is embezzled, is this good governance? Hospitals are without medicines, schools are without books and walls, people have no bread and butter to live upon, women are in persecution, youth is unemployed and deprived, and sectarianism and terrorism are ruling the country whereas government is busy in building unnecessary metro bus like projects, slam to its vision and manifesto. Is this the rule of law? Is this the supremacy of constitution? Is this democracy? May God save this nation from such kind of governance and politicians! Corrupt and fully incompetent cabinet ministers who have even no sense how to talk, no etiquettes to confabulate, how can we expect any good governance from these much rusted recruits? Government is willfully maligning and dragging prestigious Pak Army and its intelligence agency in its political dirt. Indubitably, some of the military men have better delivered than these fraudulent politicians. Foreign policy has a key effect on the state governance and we have even not a regular foreign minister. India leaning foreign policy of this government has further pushed us back. Lies, lies and lies, whether it is the sacred floor of parliament or they are TV talk shows, or a public address, the business of politicians is plain lying. And All PSEs and other valued institutions are on sale by the government. Privatization, oily joke with the nation, why these enterprises start earning when are sold? Why can’t they earn profit being under government control as they were earning earlier? IFIs push governments to privatize these institutions so that the borrowed money could be returned. And government sells these million dollars assets to its family members in thousands rupees. There is no governance in the country. Is there any department which could be called ideal, impartial, transparent and efficient? Is there any person on treasury benches who is truly working for the welfare of this nation? No, there is no one at all but just a far cry. How much tax is paid by these billionaire politicians, hardly in lacks and how much is stolen, it is in billions. Thus they are billionaires. Dear nation, keep on paying taxes so that our sacred politicians could keep on living luxurious lives. The tragedy of model town, a bigger question on the governance and why this government is not willing to have transparent scrutiny of the election rigging, simply because it is bandit. The incumbent government has lost its legal and moral roots of government. The PPP after the brutal hanging of its founder and the martyrdom of BB has failed on the fronts of governance. During last tenure, the whole national development was altered on political reconciliation and hung parliament. Corruption cases are papered in courts and will remain so until there is no proper system of accountability. Government appoints chairman of NAB after agreeing with the terms of opposition, the opposition which was in government before this government. How can one expect the recovery of the grabbed wealth! Doctrine of necessity was awarded by the judiciary to this country. Since then, judiciary is partial, biased and providing costly justice. A case here runs for decades, meanwhile the heirs die. Is this justice? Unfortunately, last movement was run for the restoration of judges and not for the impartiality and independence of judiciary. Now, the result is oblivious. All the terrorists were released. Election rigging is on airs. What did Justice Iftikhar Ch to this country, that everything is crystal clear. This nation has borne more than its weight and patience. There must be a standstill now. The movement of hate and revenge is spreading all around. And these looters will find no place to hide, before this time comes, they should start giving due share to this nation. As all the bunds are failed when floods mount, so, all the barriers will become lame when the populace will jogger them. The fire is igniting.
