Pakistan is a blessing of Allah who helped the freedom fighters to get united under one flag and to create an Islamic Social Welfare State under the title Pakistan. Our story is like any other stories that contain all events that make a struggle into reality. During English rules and their declining period Muslims across India had no knowledge how to assemble themselves and to save their souls when foreign occupiers were gone. Under these very circumstances Mohammad Ali Jinnah and his team of angels provided right leadership at right time to voice for independence. How the people responded to is a miracle indeed. We do remember the names of a few top-ranking leaders but we are stranger to the services and contributions of many stalwarts without whom independence movement would have not been possible.

When, I study history of Pakistan I feel totally depressed and frustrated that what our freedom fighters dreamed about and where do we stand now. All those sacrifices, humiliations during migration, loss of lives, loss of honor, separations of families, attacks on Muslims by Sikhs and Hindus, abductions of women, resettlements of migrated families and all associated affairs have been forgotten and we all like to be recognized by our linguistic identity. After over 60 years of independence only few families have been benefited with the fruits of freedom and in the process they have accumulated wealth that places them in a commanding position. The rests of Pakistani are living under severe economical condition and sadly 70% of the population is living below poverty level.

This is our county where no one is safe. When you go out you are robbed in day light in front of police and people as well. You cry for help but no one listen. You report the matter to police and they tell you to go home and try to forget as it is normal. Your family is disgraced and you are ordered to stay calmed. They say our institutions are not working properly as we need to have independent media and judiciary. But, how do we get the right men at the right place to provide justice to the downtrodden. Individuals run Institutions and unfortunately majority of them is corrupt. Then, we have to accept the fact that we need revolutionary men and women those who could transform the state into a sovereign country where justice is provided on merit.

In rural and northern areas of Pakistan, tribal leaders, Khans, Nawabs, Chaudhries, Pirs, Maliks, Wadaras and Zamindars have their own laws and regulations. They have a team of loyalists who work for them and press hard on destitute, weak, and helpless to force them to surrender their souls to these lords. Where is the law of Pakistan?

But, the most astute opportunists of them all are our political leaders. They play their own cards and shake hands with all these lords and thus a team of fraudster is created that endeavors to maintain their supremacy by hook or by crook. They raise various slogans and make false promises with the masses to bring in change. But, is it possible for them to act against their own allies?

Besides political leaders we do have various religious groups as well. They are equally shrewd in actions and words. They also adopt similar strategy to prolong their reign.

These are the basic reasons owing to which army has to intervene on regular intervals so as to stop the malpractices and atrocities committed by the rulers over rivals. In 1998, we had similar situation in the country as the prime minister of that era Mr. Nawaz Sharif decided to become Amirul momineen and in the process he ordered operation against MQM, crushed PPP and even demoralized the army. He uprooted the Chief Justice of Supreme Court Mr. Sajjad Ali Shah, destroyed his political rivals and had almost done with Mr. Pervez Musharraf, the then Chief of Army Staff of Pakistan, when army toppled his government and foiled his plan to nominate a new chief of army during the absence of Pervez Musharraf who was touring Malaysia. Mr. Musharraf was in his way back to Pakistan when he was informed on plane that he had been removed from his position and a new army chief was about to take oath. Mr. Nawaz Sharif was arrested, indicted for conspiracy and attempt to murder and on the basis of a deal left Pakistan to Saudi Arabia for ten years.

Our country was at the crossed road when Nawaz Sharif overthrown. We had almost been bankrupt and in fact the teams of IMF and World bank had set up their offices in State Bank of Pakistan, Karachi to monitor economic progress and dictate what and how to tax?

These were the crucial years of Pakistan and testing time for Mr. Musharraf. He showed great leadership quality and managed to repay back huge debts, utilized resources on developments of infrastructure, brought in Information Technology Revolution, communication advancement, Built roads, bridges, tunnels, underpasses, hospitals, ports, Schools, colleges, freed media and press, upgraded perks of teachers/professors/lecturers, reformed education system, Increased women seats in the parliament, challenge militants, empowered local governments and modernized our country.

But, political leaders continued their dirty politics and took full advantages of the freedom of press and media. They invested heavily on media and lawyers to launch campaign against the President Musharraf as if he done nothing and all of his actions were illegal. The media and judiciary clearly did not play straight and showed a distorted picture of him. We seen the worst and biased reporting against President Musharraf who stood clam to sustain the hostilities and nonsense. Media and press were targeting the man who served his country to the best of his ability and capability and he was only listening!

In the recent election, people have given a split decision that cause to create a hung parliament. How long this parliament will last, nobody knows. But, one thing is must we should support President Musharraf as he is the only man who has no hidden motive but to serve Pakistan

The real faces of politicians have started to reemerge again. Unnatural alliances are being formed, loyalties are being changed, promises are being made and broken. This is only the start what follows next is imaginable.

We can only hope!
