Tragedy of Pakistan
I mentioned Hermanus, a coastal town 115
kilometers from Cape Town. It was settled by Dutch farmer Hermanus Peters in
1805. Even today, 80% of its population is white.
Hermanus is famous all over the world for
its whales, winter starts in Russia in October and summer begins in South
Africa. They stay here, lay eggs in Hermanus, give birth, and start the return
journey with the young as soon as the snow melts in Russia.
Baby whales go back to Russia with their
mothers, so they recognize their migration route and spend the rest of their
lives alone back and forth. Every year in the world, there are four major
migrations of birds, animals, and fish. Millions of wintering birds migrate from
Siberia to the deserts of Pakistan every year and return as summer sets in.
In Africa, 3 million animals migrate from
the south to the center every year, forming herds and trampling the borders to
stop in Kenya, the sound of their footsteps shaking the ground as they run.
Thousands of tourists from all over the world go to Africa every year to see
this scene. The third migration is sardine fish. Millions of sardine fish also
come to Durban in South Africa from the Atlantic and Pacific oceans every year,
and the fourth migration is whales. And this process has been going on for
hundreds or even thousands of years, but here this question arises: Why do
animals, birds, and fish migrate?
There are three reasons for this migration,
weather, food, and protection, all the animals, birds, and fish of the world know
that weather is the biggest killer of life, we have to avoid this killer,
secondly, it also knows the fluctuation of food. And thirdly, they also give
utmost importance to the protection of their own young, so they migrate to safe
places for breeding and rearing of young.
For us Pakistanis, the great truth of the
world is hidden in this system and that truth is that animals, birds, and fish
also regularly plan for weather, food, and security, to meet the challenges of
life for themselves and their children. trends, they migrate before the change
of season and go to places where there is food according to their needs, they
lay eggs and are young where they are not threatened, but we may also be from
different species of animals. Gone are the days, we plan for the weather, and food, and not for our security, it has been 75 years but we have not planned for any
sector in these 75 years if we had the ability to plan. Would we have this
position today? Do we have to beg like this today?
We have to admit that we have failed as a nation,
we call ourselves and consider ourselves the most intelligent nation in the
world, but we do not even have the ability to plan for floods, how much
electricity and how much gas will we need in these winters? We will have wheat,
pulses, rice, and sugar for next year and we don't even know how much Panadol we
will need next month. I had another meeting with Mian Nawaz Sharif and Ishaq
Dar, they were also worried about the country, I see this concern in Shahbaz
Sharif, Imran Khan, Asif Ali Zardari, Chaudhry Shujaat and the top leaders of
the army, but the country How to run?
No one has any concrete plan of action for
this, we are confused from the bottom to the top, if you don't believe, ask two
questions to the most powerful person in the country, what is happening in the
country. And what is the way forward? I can confidently say that he will not
have any answer to these two questions? The establishment is the strongest
pillar of the country, does it have the answer to these two questions? Do the
President, the Chief Justice, the Prime Minister, the Chairman of the Senate, and the Speaker of the National Assembly know what is happening in the country
and how this country can be moved forward? Does the Governor State Bank, the
Minister of Finance, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs know anything? I claim
that no one in the country knows anything.
We start with Imran Khan, who wants new
elections, the question is that he has government in two provinces, KP and
Punjab, dissolve both governments and assemblies today, and new elections will be
held in the country, it is straightforward. Why not take the path? Second,
one-third of the country is submerged in floods. Let us assume that the federal
government or the establishment accepts Imran Khan's demand and the government
is dissolved. Until these areas are not eligible for elections, then who will
run the country during this time? Will we form a long-term caretaker
government? If so, what will happen to the IMF package?
It will be suspended immediately because
the country's economy will go down further and the country will default. The
second question is whether Imran Khan will accept the election through the
current Election Commission. If not, how will the new election commission be
formed? And even if all this happens, even if new elections are held and Imran
Khan comes back to power, how will he run the country with such a large
opposition, severe differences with the establishment, and global recession?
Does Imran Khan have answers to these questions?
You should now ask Mian Nawaz Sharif and
Asif Ali Zardari. Your wrong decisions have limited the federal government to
27 km and how will you run the federation now without the help of the
provinces? Second, you have not been able to control even the dollar, the
prices of flour, sugar, and cooking oil are not under control, and petrol,
electricity, and gas can no longer be afforded even by the upper class. But a
new wave of unemployment and inflation will also fall, so how will you take the
country forward in this situation?
You should also ask the establishment, the
judiciary, and the parliament if the country is not at a dead end and how can we
get it out of this dead end? I contend they will have no answer either, whether
we believe it or not, but we are badly stuck, we can neither go forward nor go
back.
We have only one way out of this situation
and that is the constitution and the rule of law, whether we decide today,
tomorrow, or after a complete disaster, we still have to sit together and
come up with an agreed plan of action. An oath will also have to be taken, so
my last request is that you hold a grand dialogue, the army sits with the
political parties, the judiciary, and the bureaucracy and decides the country's
next 20-year road map. So SOPs should be fixed.
Judiciary, NAB, Election Commission, FIA, and Police should be made completely independent, these institutions should be
completely free from state and political interference and every person in the
country including the President, Army Chief and Prime Minister should be
accountable to them. There should be no immunity and we should also open the
country for business, whoever wants to form a company in the country, do
business, pay taxes and no institution, no person should disturb him.
You believe that this country will be
saved, otherwise, we will suffer from the same situation every three years,
every government of the country will want to bring its own army chief and the
opposition will be holding public meetings by raising the name of their choice
and the country It will sink into the quagmire, so we have only one solution,
let us sit together and take all the decisions at once, otherwise you believe
this country is just a spark away, just an insult or a stone's throw away and
This country will fall apart, we have to be smart.
If we're not human, then don't be, but we
should at least be better than the whales and the birds of Siberia, who are
making better decisions about themselves and their children than we are while
we leave the entire country at the mercy of circumstances. Leaving Vikram to
watch the spectacle is the biggest tragedy in this country at the
moment and this tragedy is also becoming worse on a daily basis so fear God
sir! Now the endurance of nature is also responding.
