Bhai Saleem Khan Sahib, i have no objections to your comments whatsoever as long they are relevant to me….btw, i am not a professional writer and i never claim that….yes, i have my views and i write because i feel i have a right to air my views….. i have my own style as i see my country and i will keep on writing about it….and you have the right to agree with them or not…..its all upto you….

did i ever i mentioned musharraf in the article ?….i do not advocate musharraf but he was upon us for well over 8 years where were you people when he was enacting such bogus laws ?

One more thing I am interested in asking you. Do you consider education a political issue? I curious about your reaction on this article and its author - I honestly think education is pretty much a neutral topic and must interest us all.

I think it is not your job to check my identity or my sincerity to the peoples of Pakistan. Better you concentrate on your own work and bring some thing practical to discuss. After far word “Your” is concerned then tell me what word I should use to call Government or its policies. A professional writer should never be biased in his writing. By professional and then read others comments. Writer should only write by keeping both angles of the story and bring it for discussion, instead of first writing totally biased article and then getting angry on comments like mine.

If you have so much problem with our comments then simply tell me. I don’t have problem to not even read your writing in future. Better to digest others comments and be neutral in discussion. Why it happens that people immediately starts praising those comments that comes from their school of thoughts and never tolerate those comments that are against it. If we would be considering both angles of picture then Pakistan would have never reach to this situation.

For your kind information…Musharf bring this law and then rolled it back. They why you are only appreciating only that he bring this law.. why not discussing that what were the reasons that he took U turn on his step. What were the forces who compelled him to do so. If he bring this law with sincerity then why couldn’t stand with it for few more months. Why he opened opportunity for a person like Zardari to reach Presidency after lifting this law through PCO zadda SC.

You won’t have answers to these questions because your mind is fix at one point and unable to accept few realities.

I think it is the education of the voters that will make a difference. If voters don’t chose their vote wisely, no one can stop the corrupt politicians (not the degree condition) coming to power again and again.

Mr. Saleem Khan, i have reservations on how you use the word ‘your’…i dont know you but i assume that you are not a pakistani or dont consider pakistan as your country…i wish you well whereever you are and i dont even consider your comments relevant simply because pakistan is not your country…….i will however comment on two things you pointed out…..1) you are educated but you are comparing yourself with illeterates, do consider that when you say “Who said that education ensures ethics and decency”, 2) illeterates will never ensure ROTI to anybody other than themselves and thats a fact !…take care of yourself and do leave us pakistanis to our fate, thanks for your concern though !

@4: Musharraf has gone, pls look forward

Franklay, I am grateful that no one remembers President Musharraf being for fight against Cancer, Polio, or Tuberculosis otherwise all these ‘intellectuals’ here would be condemning him for this and would start proving how wonderful it is to have cancer or what have you - like in their view now all the terrible things education causes including the chances of us to think and judge - the main traits that make us human.

Secondly, this law was imposed by General and then lifted it back through PCO Zadda S.C to provide path to Zardari. So there was no sincerity at all to impose this law or to lift this law back.

First bring your all population at one level (in qualification) and then impose such laws. Who said that education ensures ethics and decency. I hardly found decency and ethics in the parliament under General rule. If this would be the case then how Mullahs (who read Quran daily) but still don’t practice it, rather totally violate it.

So for me, there should be always open ground without if and but for Politics. Educate your population to select better politicians and bring them in Parliament… don’t impose such restrictions that keep majority away from the basics of humanity. It is not the fault of person who not did BA…it is fault of state who is not providing them better education. Majority is concerned about 2 time ROTI, not for BA. First ensure basic necessity of life for nation and then see how people concentrate on education.
