Re: KP govt approves Rs13bn development projects
He was the CM of Punjab, and it was his duty to help. You are more than welcome to see it as favour. That’s not my problem. Imran was not a member of Parliament nor the political force he is today, it’s height of personal hatred to do a point scoring against him. Then you say political talk shows are the problem. This is exactly the type of character assassination you see Pakistani political shows isn’t it?
Nice to see you expressing your most genuine and heartfelt concerns about KPK children who died due to vaccine. But did you commend PTI for launching historic and most extensive polio movement despite the abhorrent violence polio workers were subjected to amidst looming war threats? Even for playing dirty politics, one needs to have some principles.
One thing I want everyone here to get it right, Pakistan is neither Saudi Arabia nor a Soviet Colony, it is every Pakistani and political party’s constitutional right to hold peaceful public gatherings. PTI jalsa have never erupted into violence and bloodshed, so I think it’s getting extremely pathetic and nauseating to see people throwing hissy fits about Imran’s public gathering on every given opportunity. Fortunately, there’s a lot more to democracy than having an elected head in civilian clothes. Hopefully Pakistan’s will get there one day with embracing the full meaning of democracy in its fullest terms. In the meantime, perhaps it won’t be bad idea a learn a thing or two from our neighbours, in regards to tolerating public gatherings and respecting the street power of parties. Yes, I’m talking about India.
Maybe a cause for celebration for you, but totally irrelevant to me. For your every Yazdi who abandoned PTI, I can give you examples of ten Yazdi who joined PTI. Imran the individual, PMLN the political party and army the institution go a long way back and share deeply personal link with my family, but there’s a certain danger in disclosing familial secrets and anecdotes. Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to pen down a memoir/satirical semi autobiography of some sort.
But thanks for the providing that info, perhaps that explains why he is significantly less malicious and opportunistic than you. In regards to him ‘criticising’ PTI, it’s not a cause nor a reason to lose sleep over. In fact constructive criticism is probably the best thing that can happen to PTI (and anyone for that matter) and I can only hope that they take with both hands. I’ve spent my teenage years bombarding PTI mailbox with long, pissy letters and emails and bless a lady called Shazia something, used to reply to all my mails in such calm and composed manner. Perhaps I should find a way to drop her a little hello and a thank you for bearing with me.
Ha! I was given the honour of joining the King at the age of eight.
Sorry Yazdi, wasn’t trying to steal your thunder on anything. I really couldn’t resist.
