The Current Political Crisis of Pakistan!
Many intellectual people of world still do not know what is happening in Pakistan. So here’s a short summary for you. To understand what is currently going on in Pakistan, you first need to know who is Imran Khan. Imran Khan is a man known by Pakistani nation for more than 50 years. Cricket is the hot favorite sport in Pakistan and Khan emerged as a young and talentend fast bowling all rounder in early 1970’s. At first his career didn’t seem much promising but he stayed firm and determined and later proved himself before whole world. He went on to Captain the Pakistan’s Cricket Team, ultimately won a World Cup for his country in 1992 and took retirement . Khan did not stop there. He then started a campaign to open the first Cancer hospital of country which could provide free treatment. Now this seemed impossible to many but Khan went against all odds and he was able to collect enough charity from the nation to open a free cancer hospital. He then joined politics in 1996. The start of his political career was not much different than the start of his cricketing career. He failed badly in the first election. But just like cricket, he showed his determination in politics and gradually people started paying attention to him. They started realizing that this man is somehow different than those who are ruling us for decades. In late 2000’s , social media came as a blessing for Khan and His Political Party (PTI). He immediately realized the importance of social media and formed a strong social media team which other political parties were unable to compete. This made PTI immensely popular among the youth but fortunately or unfortunately Khan couldn’t manage to win the elections 2013. He started protesting all across the country and demanded recounting in some polling stations. But the government and courts did not listen to him. He later had to give up on protests due to security instability in the country. He kept on working on his narrative building and finally Imran Khan became the Prime Minister of Pakistan as he won the elections 2018. He did many good things for Pakistan including tourism, eduaction, health sector, raising voice for Kashmir etc. He brought the elite class especially the politicians into the accountability which didn’t please the upper class of Pakistan.However, Khan also was also not able to fulfill many of his promises including not taking any more loans from IMF. His government had to ask IMF for help many times. COVID also hit the world during Khan’s reign and difficulties for his government were increased. Inflation increased and people started criticizing the government. It seemed like everything was now going against Khan. It seemed like his popularity is decreasing among the people and then all of a sudden, he was removed from the government through No Confidence Motion in April 2022. No one expected this. His own party members who won election on his party’s ticket betrayed him and joined his opposition. 13 parties from the opposition who were against each other for decades joined each other against Khan and they were able to remove him. But you can’t stop yourself from praising Imran Khan. He didn’t lose his heart, went into the public again and did what he’s famous for, Narrative Building! He called all of this drama a foreign conspiracy to destabilize Pakistan and blamed the establishment for this conspiracy. The establishment always had a role in Pakistan’s politics. Pakistan has faced Dictatorship for more than 30 years and even in the democratic governments, the establishment always had a great influence over politics.People started believing Imran. He not only gained his popularity back but this time his popularity reached new heights. In november, 2022 he decided to make a long march towards Islamabad to remove the government. Massive amount of people joined him but on his way, he was attacked and bullets were shot into his leg. This stopped the long march. Now the government and the establishment seem to be equally afraid from Imran Khan. They are trying their best to stop him from elections . Over 100 FIR’s have been filed against him just to tease him. The police and other agencies are constantly attacking the senior leadership of his party. They are being arrested. They are being teased in every possible way. Now it seems like the government is running from the elections. Despite the court’s order, they are trying to delay the elections because obviously Imran Khan is the most popular leader in Pakistan right now. The nation is paying the price of supporting him . They are being deprived from their basic right to vote. They are even losing the freedom of speech. Let’s see where the circumstances lead this situation to. Will it get any better? Or are we going to face the worse? Let’s hope for the best!
