Our politicians tend to exaggerate and blow their promises and claims out of proportions. The sponsors of Azadi March had claimed that they will descend on the federal capital from all the four sides with a lashkar of 10 lakh protestors on 31st October 2019. Some of the chief ministers had claimed they won’t allow a single soul to move to Islamabad on that date. Time proved both of them wrong. The opposition leaders could muster a couple of thousand people for its Azadi March and the government thought it expedient not to obstruct their passage to the federal capital.
What next?Is the government going to go into the causes threadbare that forced a section of the people to take to the roads to vent its spleen?Would it go the same way it has been moving during the last 14 months or would it mend its ways keeping in view the causes which were exploited by its arch political enemies to register this protest?
There are mafias galore in the country. There is no doubt about it. Unless they are rooted out the condition of the common man simply cannot be improved but to take them on simultaneously is also not a wise step. The government has to stamp them out one by one giving them no opportunity to gang up as a joint front against it thus putting it in a trouble. Didn’t all the vested interest join hands on 31 st October 2019?
Let us hope that the prime minister ensures that his government now starts delivering during the remaining period of its constitutional tenure in office which is fast running out . His ministers should now be long on performance and short on rhetoric.
