DESCRIPTION
Six decades have passed since the establishment of Pakistan. The performance of the rulers has worsened by the year. Six presidents, twelve elected prime ministers have been dismissed and eleven parliaments dissolved in violation of the constitution.
Sardar Mumtaz Ali Bhutto and Ameer Bukhsh Khan Bhutto, his son, narrate the story of misrule over Pakistan during the last eight years. Sardar Mumtaz Ali Bhutto has concluded that the basic problem of Pakistan is rooted in the suppression of the rights of the nations.
The people of Sindh have remained devoted to the concept of Pakistan, in which every people in Pakistan enjoy maximum freedom.
In the current whirlwind of imminent political realignment the usual adventurers have started salivating at the prospect of yet another bite at the cherry, while those who have had an absolute ball at public expense, for the last eight years, see an escape from accountability at the polls through an immoral and shady deal. Our society as a whole is caught up in the fraud that is being perpetrated against the nation.
The Musharraf and Benazir linkup, raises many serious questions, based on the record of their past practices. Both sides are at pains to hoodwink the people once again by professing to join hands for the restoration of democracy and the good of the country. No one is fooled as the record of the two, on both counts is dismal.
The fate of the nation rests ultimately in the hands of the people. The time has come for the people to be the masters of their own fate. They seem to have forgotten just how powerful they really are. When the people unite, even superpowers and armies get out of the way. The future belongs to the masses and they must realize that they need not be bound by the vestiges of a failed past.
