The forces of corruption, misrule, cronyism and moral bankruptcy have fought back. Ayaz Sadiq has thrown the reference against the principal culprit of the notorious Panama Leaks in the dustbin, and sent the reference against Imran Khan to the Election Commission for necessary action. I have not used the word SPEAKER here, because this high office deserves special respect, and it seems, on the basis of visible evidence that this venerable office in this country is vacant, and a ‘PMLN and MNS’ loyalist is filling this vacancy on the basis of the numerical strength of his party.
Pakistan has witnessed many an outrage, but this one that surfaced on the 5th of September 2016 has no parallel in history. Sardar Ayaz Sadiq’s name may find its way into record books, and he may for a long long time be remembered as a man who slaughtered his conscience in the cause of serving his master loyally and truthfully. In that sense Sardar Ayaz Sadiq can be entitled to be regarded as an ‘impeccable’ embodiment of personal loyalty.
There are persons who go down in the cause of ‘goodness’ and they are promptly declared as martyrs. Why not those too who go down defending the very opposite?
Perhaps, after the heroic defense of corruption and misrule, by a person no less than Sardar Ayaz Sadiq, this house has lost all legitimacy. You don’t drink a glass of milk if even a single drop of urine is mixed in it.
Our Chief Justice Supreme Court had been so right when he had lamented over the ‘abundance of corruption and misrule’.
And Imran Khan too is not far from being right when he says: The only substitute to the rule of justice is blood spilled in the streets.
That terrible eventuality Pakistan can ill-afford. The man who can come to the rescue of the country in such a critical scenario is none other than General Raheel Sharif. He can put his weight behind the Chief Justice in eliminating corruption and misrule.
