Relevant Replies from Irrelevant Position
By Farid Masood • Sep 24th, 2008 • Category: Politics • No ResponsesWhen it comes to reply to a foreign statement or a statement based on any event with in and for Pakistan, our relevant elected / chosen representatives do not come on the scene to tell the nation. Frequently un-relevant persons come on media and give policy statement.
For example, US force crossed our western border to attack Angoor Adda and the statement came from Advisor to Prime Minister on Interior Affairs gives statement, statement on Marriot Hotel Blast came from Defense Minister. If we go into detail statements there are many relevant statements from irrelevant personalities. We accept this scenario but it becomes much disturbing when statement on an issue come from more than one officials and are un-comparable to each other. For example, When Marriot blast occurred there was an Aftaar dinner was being served in Prime Minister House, people went up on their chairs, President and Prime were asked to go to protective hide. Reports says that they refused to go there and Rehman Malik says he has not asked them to do so.
In this time of agony we don’t have such contradictory statement on issues of high importance from our leadership, may we expect that they can have an agreed statement backed by nation’s voice for all internal and external issues in days to come. Is there any body to tell truth to the nation?
