Re: Mr.Khan , Punjab will not be a Piece of Cake !
No one is trying to play God here. Their position is simple. If we want to break the status-quo then no alliance with parties governing right now.
You can disagree with his and party's approach but if he wins 121 seats and other coalition win the rest, then by all means let other coalition form the government and allow a formidable opposition (not the ice cream opposition like PML-n) because we have seen in india that a meaningful opposition can make a lot of difference in governance levels :)
what status-quo buddy Pakistan only needs is timely elections and strength of institutions it has none to do with faces, the political landscape what I am seeing is two major parties only and that's the way forward but it will take few decades.
i wonder who will be these 121 candidates, I am afraid PTI will not able to field candidates in every constituency, you can't name 25 people I will bet.
PTI major political blunder was not to become part of 2008 elections otherwise it would be lot easier to them to contest elections now.

Your post is a bit paradoxical. On one hand you say it has nothing to do with faces. And in second line you worry about 121 candidates? If faces were not that important, then why there was such huge cries when people joined PTI and why PML-N is grabbing every other politician that it can get?
I dont even want to name 25 people. Let the locals decide where they have a problem finding a candidate. This is where local bodies help. It is an alien concept for pakistan but this is how it happens in democracies :)
Re: Mr.Khan , Punjab will not be a Piece of Cake !
does IK think with brain before forming such strategy technically it means even if he win 121 seats to form government he will not let the other 60% vote holders to become part of government, so he wants the full cake for himself what he is God?
Who make PTI political strategies by the way, I am just curious?
A lot of factors will come into play in case if he wins 121 seats. In that case, I am sure that PML-N and PPP, along with its family (MQM, ANP, PML-Q, PML-F, JUI) will all join hands to form government. When your sole aim is to become part of government, than you don't have to worry about ideologies. We have already seen that in Pakistan it is possible to run a coalition government, but it is impossible to have a performing government.
It's clearly going to be PTI vs the rest. In parlamentary democratic system, majority rules and no one is going to stop the majorty from ruling. If IK does not become a part of the 'coalition of the willing' for the sake of its ideologies, than you should appreciate it that Pakistan still has someone who prefers to stand his ground instead of rushing to get a piece of the cake.
Government for the sake of governing or government for the sake for performance — make up your mind first.

Both statements are contradictory. However, I kind of get what you are trying to say. But timely elections is not the only thing this country needs. It will be short term boost to economy but its the government that counts and unfortunately a strong government (with majority) is unlikely for any one. And we dont do too well with coalition government.

First statement from me was all about ideal situation which frankly not exist.
We are doing well with coalition government the last 5 years was proof enough but yup in next elections the political maturity will be better so instead of looting their will be more development and progress for people of Pakistan. Gradually system will change no revolution or dust storm make it faster.
