These kind of ethnically backed politicians will never work in Pakistan

We need politicians who will unite pakistan and not divide it

KARACHI: Arbab, PPP in row over hoardings

By Imran Ayub

KARACHI, Oct 16: Directives from Sindh Chief Minister Dr Arbab Ghulam Rahim to remove hoardings and banners put up by the Pakistan People’s Party to welcome its chairperson Benazir Bhutto upon her return on October 18 seem to have gone unheard as the local administration has failed to enforce the orders, while police officials have also remained aloof claiming it was not part of their job.

The Sindh police have turned down orders from the Chief Minister’s House to take down the promotional material citing the reason that they were busy finalizing security arrangements for the former prime minister.

Sources in the police said a meeting on Tuesday, chaired by the Capital City Police Officer (CCPO), wrapped up with a clear message to the CM’s House concerning the issue, which was the second setback to the chief minister after the city government also appeared less than enthusiastic about removing the material from its properties.

“The police, in fact, have no authority to act like a local administration,” a senior official said, citing discussions at the meeting. “The Sindh police are in the middle of planning for Oct 18, which would be a big day in terms of security measures. It demands consistency in the arrangements. We don’t have much spare time to remove such things [banners and hoardings], neither is it our job,” he added.

‘Not our jurisdiction’

The city government of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement – a major coalition partner in the centre and in Sindh – has already declined to follow the CM’s directives saying the hoardings and banners he was referring to were not in its areas of administration, as these were placed mostly in the cantonment board’s jurisdiction.

Hundreds of billboards have been put up across the city with slogans welcoming Ms Bhutto’s return, as PPP workers are considerably excited ahead of their leader’s return after spending eight years in self-imposed exile to avoid corruption charges.

The twice-elected prime minister was given an amnesty by President General Pervez Musharraf earlier this month against corruption charges through the National Reconciliation Ordinance. However, the ordinance apparently hasn’t convinced the Sindh CM.

“We will not allow any threat to law and order,” said Dr Arbab Ghulam Rahim. “The Supreme Court has already issued a stay order on the National Reconstruction Ordinance, while there are some cases pending against Benazir. So she will have to decide to return or not.”

He asked the local administration to remove all the banners and hoardings put up to welcome the PPP leader from all public buildings and other properties, warning of action against those who defied the government’s orders. However, different agencies have given various justifications for defying the CM’s orders.

“Actually, there is a misconception about the police,” said CCPO Azhar Ali Farooqi. “The police can only help those government agencies which are responsible for such a job if they face any resistance. But it can’t do these things on its own. It’s not the police’s job,” he reiterated.

He denied any instructions were received by the police for such action from the chief minister.

Sources in the Chief Minister’s House said Dr Arbab Ghulam Rahim was set to take a round of the city late on Tuesday to check the extent of his orders’ implementation.“After that the chief minister can take a final decision against those who failed to enforce his orders,” said a source.

Police protocol

Two officers of the Sindh police have been given charge of escorting Benazir Bhutto’s cavalcade on Oct 18.

Two officers – SP Javed Baloch currently posted at New Karachi and SP Pir Fareed Jan Sarhandi, posted in the CID – will escort the motorcade.

Sources said that representatives of the Pakistan People’s Party, who are in negotiations with the government, had requested for A.D. Khawaja to accompany Benazir, but the city police chief showed his inability to post him for the duty.

Sources said that SP Javed Baloch will lead the cavalcade while Pir Fareed Jan Sarhandi will escort the tail of the motorcade.

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

BB is very popular with the western media and even in India.

If BB comes to power, aid & help will pour into Pakistan from all Western countries, relations with India will dramatically improve.

Perhaps it's Pakistan's time to move on from Military controlled governments.

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

^ even if the people of pakistan think she is extremely corrupt? You do realize she was not only charged but was actually CONVICTED in a case filed by the gop in the swiss court?

Pakistan is not going to the dogs. It has already gone to dogs. Its own military and purveyors of islam are the proud perpetrators of pakistan's destruction.

Sure, aid may pour in.

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

Can you provide the link? If that is the case how does NRO affect that conviction?

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

Maybe it doesn't and the smart ___ wala pulled a fast one on bb.

I guess hamid mir and masooda bano were right, Zia hanged bhutto but he couldn't do what musharraf did: HANG PPP ON THE GALLOWS!! :D

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

i dont think she should expect something good.
the pakistan she left was different then what we see today.
media (geo) also showing footages where ppl r showing no sympathy for her.
her deals also down the morale of her own party ppl.

n importantly, her cases.

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

This is crazy and pathetic…:aj:

Life in Karachi is paralyzed…

All local channels and even BBC etc are covering Benazir’s arrival Live.
As if she’s a great leader or someone who has done a great deal for mankind…
Giving her so much hype, from London to UAE to Karachi…sad sad…:frowning:

And how very remarkable of our “awaam” which as shown by the channels, is welcoming the “angelic leader” in huge numbers…
Are the awaam really rational…? :bummer:

GEOTV has been airing a slogan past few weeks;
“Sab se behtreen musheer, Pakistan ki awaam”

i.e. “The best advisors, People of Pakistan”

Yeah Right!

A quick look at our political history doesn’t quite endorse that!

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

Silly Pakistanis

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

The plane carrying saviour of pakistan, the defender of democracy, and champion of roti kapda aur makan has landed. Hopes of a nation from Wagah to Wazirsitan are with her. :slight_smile:

God Bless President Musharaf. God Bless Pakistan. God Bless the Free Judiciary. :jhanda:

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

^^ is Mushy going to the airport to welcome her?

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

:bizz: Oh Yea ‘Wagah to Waziristan’ people are dying for her :slight_smile:

Ayea gee bhai ayea gee, BeNazir ayea gee …
roti Kapra aur makaan, saab kay liya laye gee
Wagah say Waziristan shahad saab ko khalayea gee
Kashmir say Kashmore tak dudh ka daryia bahaye gee

Well, if that is the way people of Pakistan get fooled than what they deserve is what they should get.

Anyhow, I don’t think that BB or NS has much political career left (unless some miracles happen). I do not think that PPP or PML(N) would get enough seats in NA to even claim government. I still believe that PML(Q) would be the largest party after next election. I do not think that BB coming to Pakistan would make much difference to that. But that is what I believe, I might be wrong. Political landscape can change very quickly. :slight_smile:

Nevertheless, whatever would happen to Pakistan and its future, it all depends on what people would do and how they would vote in next election. If after 8 years of different type of government than old corrupt days, after so much has happened in Pakistan, after all development and progress, after getting access to their political representative within their approach (due to local body election), after freedom of media (when Pakistanis had one TV to see and only Radio Pakistan to hear, today they have 100s of TV and radio station to choose from), after so many colleges and universities getting started in Pakistan and even little thing like paying of utility bills have became easy, after so much poverty has reduced, etc and etc, still Pakistanis would vote for old corrupts, than I think that one should not complain if Pakistan future again falls in the hand of corrupts and Pakistan go back to old corrupt days.

Re: Bhutto buzz swamps Karachi.

Hold a free and fair election, not the Musharraf rigged election and we will see who will win. I don’t support BB or NS but they can get Musharraf’s zamant zabat on any seat in Pakistan.

May Allah save Pakistan :jhanda:
