Rigging in Punjab affects whole of Pakistan, it has greater impact hence gets more attention and rightly so.

I think you are struggling to understand the point and I will now try to write in very basic and plain English.

I brought the rigging issue to highlight the similarity in lameness and intellectual dishonesty of the rhetoric PMLN members usually churn who thought there was no point condemning rigging or calling for free and fair investigation because PTI would not have won anyway, so its okay if there was rigging. They became shameless apologists for rigging while championing democracy (only in Pakistan!)

Similarly, you too are acting like an apologist for a discriminatory and anti democratic Punjab centric system because any changes to that won’t benefit PTI anyway.

Don’t insult your intelligence like some PMLN members here do, these structural issues and democratic deficit Pakistani system are not PTI issues. You lost half of your country due to this pathetic system!

Also, reforms do not produce immediate changes, so don’t bother with oh splitting of Punjab not going to make PTI win. Yes it’s not rocket science, it will probably take minimum of five years for political dynamics to drastically change in new units, but that’s still not a good enough excuse to dumb down the debate and put it at back burner.

So you didnt say people of punjab are racist and deciding fate of whole pakistan because electoral system is Punjab centric? Or you didnt say Punjab centric electoral system is evil because PMLn rig punjab and rule pakistan. What is actually problem, rigging or punjabies being racists?
There is no sense in calling it anti democratic because there is no absolute measure as to what extent we should divide provinces further. After Punjab Sindh will be bashed for being larger province. So the actual solution is provincial autonomy but maybe it does not suit to PTI as they want federation only.
