Re: Gilani cancels illegal allotments
There is something called "law & order", shouldn't "law" be followed in all cases?
Sure, law should be followed in all cases. Were MQM not in government that they could have allotted those properties lawfully to poor residence of those properties who were living in those rundown properties for more than 50 years, paying rent to government?
If what MQM did was unlawful then is allotment of agricultural lands to landless farmers by government also illegal? Is regularising and giving ownership to poor residents of unauthorised colonies who have occupied those government lands for 10 to 15 years but were not even paying rent, illegal too? Is allotting residences to poor government employees who were living in those residences for 60 years as government tenant in Punjab and other places also illegal?
Well, isn’t it surprising that parties like PPP have such allotments as part of their political manifesto, calling that as their socialist agenda, still you believe that as illegal?
If all these are illegal then each and every earlier governments in Pakistan from 1947, that includes government of Ayub Khan, Bhutto, Zia, Junejo, Nawaz, BeNazir, all have done that and considered their allotments as legal. So, start talking about those allotments too, allotments that are given to people all over Pakistan in huge number, and many such allotments in Karachi were also given, quite often benefitting migrant workers of NWFP and Punjab.
Well, there are many expensive properties and expensive plots NS and BB allotted to their goons who were already mega rich, still no one questioning. What I remember, even Imran Khan got a free plot by Nawaz after world cup, and no one questioning if that allotment was legal or illegal. What is done in Karachi was allotment of run down properties to poor residence who were past government employees living in those properties for over 50 years paying rent to government, still kuch loggon kay galat jagah per aag lagnay lagee?
You know what? All the fuss what is said about these allotments are result of ethnic bias by those thugs who could not see their own black crooked face in mirror but keep accusing others of ethnic bias and wrongs just because of their own mental bias state full of ethnic discrimination and grudges. What you think?
