Since the creation of Pakistan the Pakistani people are left at distant from the corridor of power, so that the ruling elite can do what they wanted to do in favor of their interest, leaving the Pakistani people at the mercy of circumstances. As this policy is denial of right of Pakistani people to rule their country according to their aspiration and desire to built this country, which can provide equal opportunity to all without any discrimination for the establishment of welfare society. Instead the people were divided in to muhajir, Sindhi, Punjabi, pukhtun and Baloch. Only the society base on tolerance, equality and justice can be the real guarantee for the prosperous and strong Pakistan there for your intention is invited to the crucial movement which could be the point of distraction or disaster. Many innocent people are dying every day-week and every month. Because of bombast, suicide attacks and target killing in Pakistan the factual condition is that nothing happened in this world without any reason, the need of the time is to redress the grievances of the people and eliminate the reason.

The right way to reverence to Martyr is to eliminate the causes after the incidents. If we can redress the route cause after the suicide killing, we can save many lives in future. The only way out is the change of system the route cause of all kind of grievances, the time is to empower the Pakistani at grass route level to eliminate the socio-political injustice and strengthen the unity within the society at large, and closing the door for outsiders or intruder to penetrate in our society because of social unrest.

Unfortunately, despite the significance of the democratic elements, only the power full elite are fitted in power and Pakistani are always left at the mercy of circumstances again and again… As this policy is denial of right of Pakistani people to rule their country according to their aspiration and desire to built this country, which can provide equal opportunity to all without any discrimination for the establishment of welfare society. Only the society based on tolerance, equality and justice can be the real guarantee for real peace and progress in the society. Therefore, Change of socio-political system is inevitable to empower the Pakistani at grass route level for rapid industrial and agriculture development.

But if we dig a little deeper, it does seem that the revival is mostly on paper and has affected only those businessmen at the top. The masses still feel quite separated from the revival: high unemployment, expensive gasoline, little access to quality education. And I don’t they have the patience to wait for the supposed “trickle down” effect. Sounds alot like the “India Shining” claim that was being made across the border. It become’s easy to understand why this is the case when we take note that Shaukat Aziz has a background in banking and finance, not in running a country (compare with Dr. Manmohan Singh’s background).

One thing that Shaukat Aziz has on his side though is that he is generally viewed as an clean honest person, separate from the mudslinging of most Pakistani politicians. But I guess that will change as he enters the political arena. Best of luck!

I think running a country and running the treasury are two different ball games. Aziz has been a capable finance minister and his elevation to PM is the least bad option. Yet, given his total lack of popular support, it is difficult to see that his appointment will do anything to assure political stability in Pakistan. He can stay PM as long as the General stays as President (and army chief).

You wrote “…in protest, ARD, MQM, MMA, PPP all walked out” I would like to make a correction here that MQM did not walk out and they voted for Shokat Aziz. In fact, Farooq Sattar, MQM’s parlimantry leader was in London and he rushed back to Islamabad just to cast his vote for Shokat. Unfortunately Mr. Sattar didnt arrive on time so he asked Speaker of the assembly to make an special announcement about his vote which he decided to use for Shokat.
