Provincial President of Peoples Party Mr. Nisar
Ahmed has requested in a press conference that USA must play role in restoring
real democracy in Pakistan. It is a irresponsible requests and such requests
could have negative results. In the past, we have seen that politicians used to
make such requests to the Chief of Army staff. We have experienced that army
chiefs took it as a pretext to overthrow the civilian rule. It seems that our
politician have not learnt from the history. Why should America instruct us to
restore real democracy?

Another important issue is as to why Pakistani politicians make
such requests to the outside bodies. One of the reasons is that our political leadership
does not want to face hardships. They want to eat cake but do not want to take pain of
preparing the cake. They also want to grab top political posts without any effort like our
generals of the army. When shall our leadership take lesson from the international leaders
such as South Africas Nelson Mandela or Burmas Suu Kyi? Nelson Mandela spent
years in jail for his mission and Aung San Suu Kyi has been facing hardships for years to
restore real democracy in Myanmar (Burma). Mr. Nisar must be assured that the
international community will pay attention when politicians will do some sacrifice for the
cause. Instead of requesting USA to restore real democracy, politicians like Nisar should
contact people of Pakistan but they would not - because they know quite well that
people will not mobilize on their call. If they want people support in restoring real
democracy, they have to prove first that they have changed their attitude towards
politics, democracy and people. They have to pledge that they will follow professional
ethics of politics and values of democracy whenever real democracy is restored in
Pakistan.
