Post Jinnah Pakistan endorsed a feudal, mercantile and landlord class to acquire the political system of Pakistan. These power seekers and mostly British rewarded stratums were not in fact leaders but merely the rulers of Pakistan. Imprudent and senseless ruling class is only power seekers lacking interests for the state and the countrymen.

The number of ruling families in Pakistan has now reached 32. Pakistan’s anguish has advanced into the existing system of ruling class in the faces of Bilawal Zardari, Maryam Nawaz, Aimal Wali, Asad Mahmood, Shahzain Bugti, Awais Laghari, etc. subjecting to their personal agendas. Piling up the debt for the generations of Pakistanis, the ruling peers are becoming wealthier and affluent.

In Pakistan, generally around two dozen Islamic bands are following the fanatic religious ideologies. Because of their street power, they are the need of practised political culture. Political parties and establishment both need them. Reliogio-political assemblages have a resilient aspiration to rule over Islamic Republic of Pakistan but never agreed to let others sects lead in prayers, being the main reason for the national bifurcation.

National Assembly of Pakistan has 342 seats including 10 reserve seats. Among those 332 seats, there is hardly a common man among them. It verifies the phenomenon that common masses have their representation with the remaining 10 reserve seats only.

It was all being exploited in the very name of democracy, despite being the antithesis of the democracy. Democracy actually means to serve humanity not only the powerful classes.  From August 1947 to April 2022 the connivance of privileged political forces, religious groups, establishment, judiciary and bureaucracy have brought the country on the brink of destruction. Later the regime change operation changed the concept of Pakistani democracy, and revealed the rogue exercises of the above said institutes.

The current unspeakable situations of Pakistan exposed the responsible factors and their objectives in which PTI and Imran Khan took full advantages of the social media trial of so-called democratic and authoritative forces. Social media and real democratic forces portrayed political understanding for the common people. Now Pakistanis have started questioning and worrying about the hard comings of Pakistan.  This is the suitable time to subtract the unwanted authoritative, political non-political forces for the safety and the prosperity of the Pakistan.

Simply, Pakistanis need to be decisive regarding the decision making. The non-democratic entities should remain in limits and the foreign interventions should not be tolerated. Pakistani nation have woken up; no institution is powerful enough as compare to the will of Pakistanis, because the verdict of a real democratic nation has ever proven sufficient to deal with the anti-state Immersions.
