Now things are getting clearer that secret hands have started their maneuvers to postpone the elections. It would be better if establishment pick and choose the technocrats and install new interim government for at least 3-5 years. On the other hand, the authorities must envision to arrange presidential form of government which is more suitable in Pakistan rather than parliamentary form of govt which is nothing but a blackmailing form of govt. The presidential election must be direct like USA and the incumbent can select his own cabinet not cronies.
