Undoubtedly elections do result in educating people and brings good results, provided held free and fair. Is it possible under the circumstances and who would ensure this.
We are under strong pressures and influence of brotheryism, official holds and easily won over.
But than this is the only recourse.

When would PTI start doing Politics of Principles? Why are they leveraging through Judiciary? They are damaging an institution trying to find their way to the corridors of POWER. Why don't they talk about their Policy and what they have to offer when they come in to Power. They don't have a sensible policy for War Against Terror. Their policy can take Pakistan in to stone age....

This judiciary is not fit to interpret constitution as it is itself contraversial and perceived to be corrupt
Mr qureshi, you continue attacking your previous party but remember you have no respect in PTI really

Shah sahib is right the PPP PML nexus has failed. They are now trying desperately to start controversies that divert all attention from their misdeeds. Even if this means fragmenting the fabric of trichotomy of powers. They will stoop to any level to achieve their nefarious deeds. Pitting the judiciary against the people, and coming out with seditious statements to demoralize the public , that is their agenda. It does not matter that SMQ was with PPP, at least he realized what they are upto finally. He made the right choice in opting for PTI. Exposé these rulers and save us from their destructive policies.

Couldn't agree more shame on PTI to maligned the SC, they used SC and their cronies for their own personal interest, . I am amazed why people glamorize PTI. They never keep their promises, they never answer any thing concrete, and above all it is one person (IK) party. Have the Einsteins in the party ever thought about it what gonna happen if IK hit by a bus?

It is interesting the opposition is trying to make the judiciary a part of the opposition -- or vice versa.

Its a same judiciary who allowed army to throw the constituition away,and murdered the elected PM.Why we close our eyes.Its only the judiciary who is responsible for present condition of country.Army has always taken help of these judges to make their rule constituitional.And elected government is the only solution to make country stable,they should be allowed work without interference from army and judges.If people dont like them,they will not elect them in next election.If dont accept the decision of majority,and keep on using power to implement the minority decision,the result will be disastrous.We have not learned from past.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi has no home base left after PPP. I wonder how PTI will handle him if at all they come to power. Volatility does not behove a politician.
