Fantastic post. We had the PML as one party but slowly people with different languages, ethnicities, tribes, castes wanted to be the Kings and they made own small parties. This is exactly what happens at grassroot level, people back the most evil and corrupt person in their families and he then supports the local MNA/MPA, the local MNA then joins a party. If the party takes action against him then he leaves and joins another party, if the local MNA doesn't give contract to loyalist they then will leave him and join another family. In this system only the cunning will rise up. The loyalist only support him because he will look after them. In my area the local MNA gave 2 crore to build road, he had no choice but to give to local follower, he in return ate all the money, what can the MNA do? If he exposes him then the loyalist+ baradari will leave and join opposition. The same with landlords, the MNA will be his loyalist otherwise no chance he will win. If you take action against powerful people they then will threaten rebellion, separatism etc. What can you do when jahil awaam joins them? After all Pakistan is the awaam. MNA also has connections with police, judges and if you don't have their backing, then your rival and enemies will destroy you. Why doesn't the common man/woman have the power through institutes?
Lack of education, ignorance, corruption destroyed the society. The answer is we need to bring back the elite education system which made us strong powerful in our history. Then make the institutes independent and free from politics. I dont see this happening till maybe 2050+.
The only thing we can do is like what we done with our security situation, pakistan made a special body (cannot recall the name) which involves the Army generals, ISI chief, PM, President, cabinet and they discuss security issues. Why not make a strong independent body of Pakistan economic/development/educational Authority which involves top judges, ISI chief, Generals, PM, President, cabinet, CMs, opposition leaders, professionals and discuss long term policies to make Pakistan strong, then move them to the Parliament and pass it. Let the corrupt PM or Judges, opposition leaders explain why they opposing policies which will benefit Pakistan, let them answer to the people, if they say in front of the TV and people that yes we want this to happen then pass it at the council and move it to the Parliament. Let the corrupt parliamentary people know this policy was passed by their own leaders in the council. I am talking about main issues. Like for example why leaders oppose Kalabah dam, let them explain in the council in writing, tell them to give solutions. Why they oppose action against terrorism. Why the judges don't listen to the pending cases? If judges say we have no time then expand the supreme Court, give judges night time but give people the justice. Why leaders oppose more provinces? Let them discuss in the council and pass new policies.
If not we will be at the same position in the next 30 years. Provinces politics, water politics and the list goes on.
