The political landscape of Pakistan is now a game of feudals and aristocrats, with leaders determined on nepotism
MIRPURKHAS: With great power comes great responsibility. Unfortunately, in Pakistan, great power comes with an abundance of money and impunity. We are supposed to choose our so-called leaders so they can solve our problems, not so they can enjoy luxuries.
The political landscape of Pakistan has now become a game of feudals and aristocrats, with the next ‘leader’ determined based on nepotism. The entry of the common people into politics is often unthinkable because of great hurdles and danger. People, especially in Sindh, are deliberately not imparted education so they remain unaware of their rights and are unable to challenge the abuse of power.
