SHAFAQNA PAKISTAN (Shia News Agency)
PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari has been famous for his cunningness and shrewdness. He is a jack of all trades and also he has assumed a self charge to protect democracy therefore he has been supporting PML-N despite its poor performance however he has come out boldly against the proposed 22nd Amendment supported jointly by Nawaz Sharif and Imran Khan. This is the first major political encounter between the PML-N and the PPP after the 2003 elections.
Talks being Zardari’s forte he has already arrayed the JUI-F and ANP against the change in the mode of the Senate elections. The PPP chief hopes to rope in the QWP also. He has talked to Imran Khan and Sirajul Haq on phone despite their being in the opposite camp. Zardari has something that is bound to attract both Imran Khan and Sirajul Haq in days to come. He has promised to issue a white paper on malpractices that took place during the 2003 elections and has invited them to join hands with him to work for more comprehensive electoral reforms to ensure corruption-free polls.
Imran Khan has to realise that there is no way for him to materialise his dreams if he does not join hands with other parties to reform the electoral system. For this he has to return to the National Assembly and cooperate with others who are keen to introduce reforms.
And for this it is necessary that PTI abandon the agitation and play politics rather than assuming mode of isolation. Imran Khan should try to resolve all the issues through dialogues otherwise no one will back him.
