PM Nawaz's Resignation

The current situation in Islamabad is simply intolerable. Gross violation of fundamental human rights and those guaranteed by the Constitution of Pakistan are taking place by order of the administration. If the federal cabinet did not want any demonstrations in Islamabad, the prime minister should have advised the declaration of Emergency under article 232 of the constitution. Instead, the constitutional process was shunned and unnecessary force was used coming close to the subversion of the Constitution. All democratic and pro-constitution forces should demand the resignation of the erring prime minister. Can the army take him in protective custody and persuade him to resign in greater national interest under article 245 which has been invoked by the government?

Thoughts for Today

1. Democracy is the ability of a larger group of stupid people to overwhelm a smaller group of geniuses and warriors without violence.

 

2. The simplest way to solving the current political crisis in Pakistan is to remove all obstacles from the roads leading to and within Islamabad and wait for a week. If the crowd starts swelling to a million, the government should quit. If there is no significant change, the marchers should return.

Pakistan Politics Today

1. Mr. Nawaz Sharif has made hardly 15 appearances in houses of Parliament during the last 15 months.  A parliamentary system cannot function in this way.
2. Mr. Sharif has been busy making economic deals all over the world about which the parliament is in total darkness.
3. Nobody doubts Mr. Sharif’s sincerity or capability to do good to the nation by extra-parliamentary means.
4. The Senate had to pass a resolution demanding PM to attend its sessions, but to no avail.
5. Many of PMLN lawmakers may be disappointed in this situation but they cannot speak their minds due to the gag on them put by 18^th amendment.
6. In his election campaign Mr. Sharif had claimed that the power crisis was due to bad management of resources by People’s party and he would fix things in six months. Power management has grown worse in the last 15 months. The billion rupees spent on the reviving the abandoned Nandipur project have proven a waste.
7. The subsidized interest loan scheme for youth has proven a failure.
8. The 100 billion rupee gift to daughter Marium for buying toys has failed to make an impact.
9. Adhocism is back in the administrative and financial functions. Family and friends of the leader to whom the party is dedicated are having a good time. The ruling party has to expand its base.
10. Ever since the days of British Raj, elections in the subcontinent have been a conjuring match. The party that can throw more dust in the eyes of the electorate wins. The older generation that has compromised with the system only wants to make the dust transparent as in the case of western democracies. The new generation wants to get rid of the dust.
11. It is obvious that there was major rigging in the last elections although everyone accepted it in good faith.  Mr. Imran Khan has claimed that large numbers of ballot papers were printed by private printers on nonstandard paper which were used in bogus voting whose thumb impressions cannot be verified. The ballot boxes in the custody of the Election commission may have been tampered with during the last 15 months. So there is no point in ballot verification now.
12. PM and Chief Minister Punjab have to take responsibility for the Model Town massacre of 17^th June in which 14 people were killed and more than 80 shot at chest level by police. The incident report recorded by Police does not mention any citizen casualties. Obviously it was a plot and a cover-up.  Nobody in government expressed any sympathy with those killed and wounded in the incident.
13. Mr. Tahirul Qadri has only recently descended on Pakistan after migration to Canada and a long stay there. He has a wide spread network of madressahs and orphanages and a few hundred thousand spiritual followers in Pakistan and other countries. He seems to have formed an alliance with Sunni Tehrik and Shia-led MWM, both opposed to the pro-Taliban religious organizations. It seems that he is trying to make the imposition of Martial law imperative and since the army would be reluctant to form alliance with either PMLN or PPP, he might get a chance to become their civilian lackey. The army needs to give him a clear cut message that he is chasing an illusion unless………..
14. It is a very complicated situation, but it can be resolved without bloodshed and in a reasonably short time by careful planning and systematic execution. God bless us all.

The secret of China's progress and prosperity is that Chairman Mao never went on a foreign trip. Just stuck close to his people and inspired them to work honestly.


After being figuratively kicked, punched and spat on, PM Nawaz Shareef has offered to form a judicial commission to investigate irregularities in 2013 general elections. This action may be at odds with the constitution and there is no guarantee that there will be no state intervention in the performance of the commission. The most important thing is to get one's priorities right according to one's position.

Improved Relativity

 

The following are the missing postulates of the Theory of Relativity:

1. Relative motion is the vector difference of absolute motions.
2. Relative motion is impossible without the existence of absolute motion.
3. The observed value of relative motion of the same object is different for different observers; each being convinced that he is right.
4. The observation of absolute motion requires the recognition of a fixed and unchanging point of reference.
5. The observation of relative motion is geocentric i.e. the observer assumes himself to be the point of reference and discounts his own absolute motion from all others.
