NEW LESSONS FOR SHARIF

The judicial ouster of elected Prime Minister is certainly bringing political uncertainty. The political landscape of Pakistan is deteriorating owing to Nawaz’s return to Lahore, thus, adding war of words between two rival parties; PML-N and PTI. Though, the ousted PM’s mantra, merely in words, is to stick on democratic stability. However, he did not become coarse despite the verdict against him. Rather, He tried to cope up with dissenting political parties, including discord with PLM-N internal faction. The turbulent political episode is ahead in the prompt and show of street power. The party leadership must send a strong message to its supporters to avoid any provocative words or actions to kick start the next election campaign. He must learn from his latest ouster as well as from his 1999 ouster. Whilst, he is busy at feathering his own cap for peaceful opposition politics, yet he is devoid of practicing democracy. Thus, Mr Sharif has another chance to represent a good system of his party.   155/ 454

Moreover, if women would not participate in politics than policy making would not be under the consideration of their rights; therefore, discriminatory laws against women would be in surge because men would be more in numbers. Similarly, another reason of women backwardness is due to the placement of few women on key executive position which is the major hindrance in the way of women backwardness.

Whistle-blowers Bill

Accountability, an essence of democracy, is missing out rightly. Whistleblowers - secret weapons of public interest - have global significance as they can alter policies, the forced resignation of heads and change form of governance, for instance, Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden’s leaks, and Panama leaks.

Thus, it put forth all government employees under the ambit of law. ...

SEEK EDUCATION FROM THE CRADLE TO GRAVE, exhorted by the Holy Prophet (PBUH) about the significance of education. There are diversified sectors which demand visionary approach to choose, to dissect, and to prioritize investment, respectively. Investments are made with intentions to get maximum dividend in the future. Therefore, it requires rational approach of decision makers to invest in the highly pay-off educational sector.  One will reap; what one’s sows. Broadly speaking, all sorts of investments are made to get comparatively higher yields in the future. Despite, education is fundamental rights; fewer countries are keen to invest in it.
