I, also, have very strong objections on these so called "qaumi parasti" and condemn all such political parties that have this in their agenda. To name a few MQM, BNP, ANP and there are others also. We (Punjabis) always interpret it as exploitation by the leaders. But I think we need to look at the situation more objectively, by looking at the reasons which make the people of smaller provinces to think like that. We had already are very shameful example in our history, referring to separation of East Pakistan that also was a result of some similar attitudes. The sort of strong central system we are having here may not be the solution, and why our governments are against provincial autonomy??
The issue of CJ has been politicized by the so-called democratic parties. And, they have managed to aggravate the situation to gain some political advantage. The things that are been done in the name of empowering or reviving democracy have some different objectives. Democracy is just a slogan used by these people to achieve their personal objectives. It never means I am a supporter of govt. The way the situation was handled and the remarks being given are enough to prove that govt is completely confused. I pray that may this end in a peaceful manner.
