Episode 1: What if Karachi was mass mobilized by PTI. PTI gives a none-partisan call to Karachites. The protest is not called at one venue but multiple venues including MQM office Bahadurabad, main markets in each NA seat MQM has in the current NA. Each of these venues sees crowds of 10 thousand since the none-partisan call is "gair mulki sazish, na manzoor na manzoor". A total of more than 150,000 thousand karachites mobilise in seemless fashion from the 10 million plus population of the city, unencumbered by logistical issues such as road capacities as they dont have to converge on one venue. Seeing Azizabad rise against them, MQM leadership get cold feet and decides to sit-out the 3rd April Vote in NA.

Episode 2: What if Imran Khan wrote a letter in his office and then decided to fly to Peshawar so he could return back via road with some muscle in case the re-organisation order in his letter is met with an unconstitutional 'No'? There is a shouting match, few would have thought the fate of Pakistan was in the hands of a puny low ranking officer.

Episode 3: Speaker of the NA assembly opens the session and invites the leader of the house to make one final attempt to present the foreign conspiracy in the NA. There is a rukus, the opposition dont want to see it. The speaker says I have no choice but to adjourn again, and again and again.. Does the opposition have the strength to take it to the streets?

Edit: The episodes are not mutually exclusive.

#1 won't work. People of Karachi won't come out. They are not much of stake holders in Pakistan power politics. They are here just to pay taxes on behalf of rest of Pakistan and interior sindh.
#2. Looks mutiny
#3 is a good option for a sensational drama.

#1. PTI won 10 seats in Karachi, I imagine thats more than 700 thousand votes. True people of karachi are lazy when its the question of national politics, but there is little they need to do, they are not being asked to take a coach to Islamabad.

#2 Mutiny is when a subordinate tries to take over, here the superior authority is raising the subordinate as a replacement. Legally not a mutiny.

#3 At this point this one is looking the most plausible since no bold steps are being taken and this is the only option that is based on procrastination

Okay. This is too much, so lemme get this straight.
Our Establishment was giving PM Imran Khan these 3 options.. when what they should've been doing instead is digging into and assessing the threat from Amreeka, to his life and removal from office.
Bajwa Sahb... Ye kya hai?!
