What's new

PMLN defeated in Punjab as Hassan Askari takes oath as interim CM

He wont be able to do much without bringing Punjab bureaucracy under his control, which unfortunately is totally under PML-N thumb.

Very true, indeed

Yes, as far as I can tell, PMLN can still win on the basis of Punjab alone. I WANT PTI to win but will have to accept whoever the majority votes for. Sad, but let's not repeat the mistakes of the past and steal people's mandates. Elections in Pakistan had disastrous consequences in the past and we can go back as far as the 1962 elections (Ayub Khan vs Fatima Jinnah). Some consequences had been subtle, took a while to materialize, but they were bad for Pakistan. Respect people's choice and ABOVE ALL provide continuity of policies and stability. No revolutions. Evolution.

As for Prof. Askari, he's a very good choice. I have been watching the 'Think Tank' shows almost daily and love the debates. He's been active in that. He may be against Nawaz a bit but he's a fair minded person and you can count on him to be good caretaker Chief Minister of Punjab.

Anyway, here is a latest show.


Corruption is the only flourishing industry in Pakistan, and it is quite independent of the fact whether there was political stability or instability
