The political circus in Pakistan
The standoff between Pakistan judiciary and polity has intensified once again with the country much-celebrated Chief Justice,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Ifthikar Mohammed Chaudhry, sacking Pakistan Prime Minister, Yusuf Raza Gillani. His sin was that despite repeated reminders from the Supreme Court, he refused to re-activate the corruption case against his mentor Pakistan President Asif Zardari.
A new Prime Minister has been appointed from Mr Zardari party, the Pakistan People Party. That the new Prime Minister, Raja Pervez Ashraf,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], himself has been charged with corruption from his days in the water and power ministry, has not come in the way of his elevation. A two-term Member of National Assembly, he won the contest for Prime Minister handsomely,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam chief, Maulana Fazlur Rehman, withdrawing at the nth hour, and his party not participating in the election.
One saving grace in this Islamic country with a troubled history with democracy during half of its Independence, Pakistan has been ruled by the Army has been the failure of religious parties to come to power. As a visitor to Pakistan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I often had this comment made to me, rather triumphantly: have kept our Mullah-led parties in check, whereas you people have made BJP, the hardcore Hindutva party,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such an important player in India. That Islamic militancy is now raising its ugly head in the country much more forcefully is of course another story.
Interestingly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood member, Mohamed Morsi,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has been declared President of the country after a deeply polarising poll, in which he got 51.73 per cent of the vote.
A public heroReturning to the judicial-political battle,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Justice Chaudhry emerged a hero during the Musharraf era, when in 2007 he defied the then Pakistan President. With the legal community and a civil society disenchanted with its politicians joining hands,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], General Musharraf had to bite the dust.
Now, Justice Chaudhry has turned his guns on President Zardari, and wants the Pakistan government to actively pursue the corruption charges against its chief mentor,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], something unheard of in this part of the world.
Mr Zardari has sacrificed Gilani,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and put Mr Ashraf in his place. But Mr Ashraf reign in the Power Ministry was marred by charges of not only inefficiency, but corruption too. It won be long before Chief Justice Chaudhry puts pressure on the new prime minister to actively pursue the case against President Zardari. This will trigger a bigger crisis in a country where general elections are scheduled in March 2013.
Business community resignedJust as the political parties and civil society, business and industry circles in Pakistan too are divided over the choice of their new Prime Minister. Mr Aziz Memon, chairman of the Kings Group, that deals in textiles, pharmaceuticals, cement, etc. told Business Line: present change of Prime Minister from Yusuf Raza Gilani to Raja Pervez Ashraf is no change. Both are from the PPP; the Cabinet remains same and so do the economic policies. Hence,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for the business community there is no worry or concern. The continuation of the same faces in the Cabinet further solidifies the opinion of the business community that he is more of a caretaker than a working Prime Minister. He may play to the gallery when meeting his constituents or addressing the crowds but this would not earn him Brownie points. The perennial load shedding has played havoc with the country and, rightly or wrongly, he is also being blamed for this mess. He was taunted thus by Opposition members last Friday when he made his way into Parliament.
Mr Aziz adds that there is resentment against Mr Ahmed from not only the PPP coalition partners,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but the party itself. So the kind of regard or respect Mr Ahmed gets, for stepping into Mr Gilani shoes that were not large by any stretch of the imagination will be scanty.
Pakistan is already embroiled in political uncertainty and instability,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], particularly in the context of its present icy relations with the US,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which has been its long-time friend and mentor.
The only bit of cheer Pakistanis can have is that their army is in no mood to take over.
For the time being, it is content to confine itself to the barracks and sulk at the US, which so cheekily slipped in its Navy Seals into the garrison town of Abbottabad and killed Osama bin Laden without as much as a whisper to their Pakistani friends in uniform!相关的主题文章:
