Re: Unplugged With Admins: ehsan bhai
Brother Ehsan, it was nice to read you, know you better and learn your views. Anyhow, I have questions related to some of your answers. I hope you can give your thoughts on them. I am starting with your answer to question 6. Question on rest would follow later.:)
I agree with you that what TUQ and IK did, it was a big achievement and almost all of their demands are justified. Actually, political situation would not going to be same ever after this long dharna (that is still going on), and that is regardless of both TUQ and IK lift their dharna without getting any demands, as they have created lot of awareness amongst many Pakistanis who were sleeping till now.
As for method, I do not know what other method they could have chosen. Most Pakistani politicians, especially those who are exploiting the masses with fake promises and ruling or ruled the country, they are selfish criminals, and have no shame, no character, no words that they keep, no empathy, nor do they care about anything.
TUQ party boycotted 2008 election, but being voters they made demands on roads, what is right of all voters. TUQ took promise and made an agreement before last (2013) election that constitution regarding election is going to be followed in words and sprite. PPP in government gave their words, signed the promise and leaders of most political parties in parliament endorsed that agreement. On that promise and agreement TUQ left Islamabad dharna, and once he was gone, so did all agreements and promises. When TUQ went to court, PMLN paid judge (Choor Iftikhar) made all sort of absurd interpretation of constitution to humiliate TUQ. Throughout, sold-out media was abusing and humiliating TUQ for no valid reasons. Now for TUQ to start dharna again and not to trust these politicians is obvious. He as civilian and voter has right and stake in the system, so only way for him is protest (dharna).
His demand is that whatever is in constitution should be made mandatory for EC to follow, for government to follow, and all should be made enforceable. That is all. So, knowing the parliamentarians and their deception (what TUQ experienced before 2013 election), what other method is there, if his present method is wrong?
Imran Khan being in parliament and being a party securing second largest vote count (even when huge rigging happened) tried to sort things out through parliament, through election commission, through courts, through negotiations, and nothing came out. It was after 15 months of knocking at all doors and exhausting all venues, today he is on road. So, if he had not used this method than what method was there to use?
As for Raheel Shareef involvement, it had no purpose but was just a ploy by Thug Nawaz to malign TUQ, IK, and army. He wanted to give impression that TUQ and IK are relying on army, and that army is behind them. He called Raheel Shareef to get involved, and then Nawaz lied in parliament, putting blame on Raheel Shareef that he was requested by TUQ and IK to get involved and Raheel Shareef got interested.
As for NS resignation, that is obvious demand. Actually, demand is that NS should become dysfunctional while investigation of last election rigging goes on, because being functional he would interfere and knowing him one cannot expect fair investigation. Even though NS has his paid servants in most crucial places, NS is capable of bribing, threatening, blackmailing, kidnapping, and even murdering to influence the investigation. Hence … demand is that, he should resign or at least become dysfunctional while investigation happens.
I think my reply to TLK above covers your question.
