Presidential Elections

 

I do not know who are the advisors of the PTI or is it Imran Khan’s solo decision to field Justice  Wajih ud Din ( Retd) as their presidential candidate, but who so ever have  (has) done it certainly lack(s) political maturity.  Do they have in their wildest dreams any hope of his being elected? The only argument they offer is that that they did not want to give a free walk over to the ML(N) nominee.  But little do they realise that by contesting the election they are providing Mamnoon Mamon with a proper legitimacy of claiming to have won the elections after duly contesting it against the opposition candidate. Had the PTI boycotted the presidential elections these would have been viewed just as a farce all over the world, but now that the PTI is contesting them it will not only give a legit president to the country who would dance to any tune called by the MNS but would also damage the cause of democracy in the country by giving an entire free and unbridled hand to MNS to do whatever he wished !!

 

Similarly, strange was also the ML(N) yatra to 90! Even a child in the politics knows that the MQM cannot stay without siding with the power.  And, now that Altaf is in dire straits in London, they needed all the more the blessings of the federal govt.  They have already some share of power in Sindh and probably now would perpetuate the continuation of their governor there too.  Had ML(N) waited a little the entire 90 would have made the pilgrimage to Raiwind, but then how would have the ML(N) proved its poor political acumen and not lowered its prestige in the eyes of the general public.

 

God bless our leaders with some vision also.

 

Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)
