Punjab... the biggest, wealthiest and most powerful province of Pakistan
Punjab..... from where hails the establishment of Pakistan (with in lahore to islamabad, to be precise..as mentioned by zardari in his column for washington post )
Punjab.... perhaps the most moderate province of Pakistan (when it comes to the daily life of people), provided, we take karachi out of sindh!
Punjab, has the 2nd most liberal and educated city (after karachi) in the form of Lahore
Punjab, whose first letter 'P' starts the name of Pakistan, a word which basically means "Land of pures" i.e a land of purists
YET...
Why Punjab still lacks a single secular party, though on the other hand, a relatively poorer and smaller province like sindh has secular PPP (which took the whole country by storm and is the only national party in pak rite now), and even the most conservative province like nwfp has secular ANP working for them since ages?
Why, not only the secular but even the atheist punjabis i.e imran khan (some 1 whose westernized antics are known to the whole wide world and some 1 who himself admitted in an interview that he din't believe in god until his mother died) suddenly become pro-islamic hypocrites when they enter into politics?, is telling what you really believe in so difficult in punjab? or is the good old "islam card " too powerful in punjabi politics to let go of?
Why the best we get from punjab are two clean-shaven wanna-bee "mullas" in the form of sharifs? (the kind of hypocrites who want to get the best of both worlds by being "ameer-ul-momineen" on one hand, while marrying a renowned "adulterer" of her time a.k.a Tahmeena durrani on the other)..Tahmeena, the ex-wife of Mustafa khar has admitted in her popular biography a.k.a "My feudal Lord", that she cheated on her first husband many a times with khar and surprise surprise she is still the 2nd wife of maulana shahbaaz shareef. !
Why it happens only in Punjab that the "Muslim league", which was once led by a liberal & a secular like Mohammad Ali jinnah keep getting hijacked, tempered and abused by "streetsmart" punjabi politicians like the chahudhries, chatthas, pathas, haqs and who not??, so that they can accomplish their hideous plans while selling the so-called "Islamic philosophy" of QUAID to the innocent, ignorant and passionately religious public?
Why all the punjabi anchors of our elctronic media suddenly become a party to issues like war on terror etc and try to keep themselves as well as public in a constant denial by asking questions like "whether it is our war or not?" at a point in time when "Tehreek-e-Talibaan-PAKISTAN" have made states with in the state of Pakistan?..yeah morons this not our war, we have just offered pakistani play grounds to both talibans and americans for this competition as there would be no cricket in pakistan for the foreseeable future
(by the way, this is not just an impression or accusation, just read the last few paragraphs of a famous journalist from lhr a.k.a Najam sethi's editorial in daily times today and you would get the idea:
and lastly, why all this "adha teetar, adha batair"/"beech ki bili" drama by mainstream punjabi politicians in a land which is otherwise known as "land of PURISTS"???
Finally, My little advice to PuNJAB:
SAY IT LOUD IF YOU ARE RELIGIOUS (just take a leaf out of taliban book, who might be extremists in nature but earn respect as they are at least purists and not hypocrites like you )
MAKE NO BONES ABOUT IT IF YOU ARE NOT!(one should live the life with the rules that he believes in.. living, how others force you to live, is a petty death in itself)
