Apparently feels as Pakistani politicians consider that they are dealing with a numb nation. The 21st century has witnessed the several revolutions in different nations such as Africa, Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon and other Pan-Arabic states. When the other nations are channelizing towards the political, social, and economical progressions; Pakistan is fighting the survival war. This unfortunate situation is undoubtedly due to non-serious and insincere politicians not the all but majority. This is a useless practice to post-mortem the contemporary government's performance in Pakistan. However, this is an open secret and anybody can judge the role of so-called democratic coalition government without any brainstorming.
The tons of excuses and blame on others is in the pockets of every political party in Pakistan but the most dramatic and cunning part is playing the MQM in recent years. The on-off status in government and especially in the Sindh province is more than any melodrama. The hundred millions question is either the "MQM is firmly believed that the Pakistani nation is really imbecile"? To some extent Pakistani nation has proved this claim with their passive role in the democratic process and the awry use of their voting power. Obviously international, establishment, corruption and other influences matter in Pakistani elections however, the most concerned dilemma persist when the voters not realizing their might.
MQM is mainly holding the power in Karachi city. With few national and provincial assembly seats and foregin national boss they are the part of every government since 90s. Their only quality is media handling and outspoken representatives has saved their face so far. Practically no other party in Pakistan has the political puppets like MQM. The recent drama of declaring their status as 'opposition party'; just a few weeks before the natural death of the government is scripted comically. They enjoyed the power about five years in the PPP romance and left them alone just before the sunset is indigestible feat.
The most miserable character in MQM is Governor Isharat-ul- Ibad. He has to get his passport and ticket ready 24/7 for any time call from branded boss to resign and report in London. Luckily for him and unluckily for the Pakistani nation his Dubai transit always saves his chair. He is the longest serving Governor in the history of Pakistan and hardly one can find his contribution in the development of the province except his most obedient cum robotic style of Governorship for MQM.
Already the nation was amused for the MQM's decision to get out the government fabrics; another drollery news make them laugh that Dr. Ishrat-ul-Ibad is reporting back in the office on the call of their 'democratic' leader Altaf Bhai. Perhaps this is the unique style of 'democracy' across the globe where one-man show rules.
The MQM should seriously re-address their timely interest based politics to prove them a democratic and nationwide party in Pakistan rather snuggling into their typical political stunts.
