Re: Student Protests (merged)
It is amazing that LUMS being one of the most expensive private universities would be the source of student unrest.
And all that time I felt that private institutions will be totally focused on studies.
Let's see if it were an American situation, then we would experience student unrest in the likes of MIT, Stanford, or Princeton.
There is no doubt that imposition of emergency in this day an age is a tough thingy even for a general.
I hope that emergency is removed soon as it distracts us from the real work of developing the country.
I am also ashamed that we are so furious about the fruit aka emergency but don't even bother about the tree. The tree of anarchy and instability bears fruit what we call emergency.
We as a nation have remained oblivious to the instability, judicial activism, and political opportunism for many years now.
Our soldiers have been murdered, and their bodies mutilated by the Wahabi Arabs, and yet our anger was nowhere to be found.
Anyways, it is good that we as a nation are showing the resentment and unhappiness about lack of freedoms, and I hope we can carry it on to the FATAns and PATAns so their men could get a decent shave, their girls could go to schools without the fear of Jihadi bombs, and their families could watch a movie.
I hope we keep our focus that Pakistan is the last island of safety for Pakistanis all around the world.
Amen!
