Setting wrong examples

MNA could easily have protested via his office and his constituency in a much effective manner

KARACHI: What can be expected of the common man abiding by the law when public representatives and public office holders themselves cannot protest without violating the regulations! PTI MNA Alamgir Khan threw garbage and gutter water at the entrance of the CM House in Karachi in a bid to protest against the city’s sewerage situation.

The MNA could easily have protested via his office and his constituency in a much effective manner, instead of setting wrong example to the rest to follow.

Having political representation, MNAs or MPAs must do whatever they can in their own constituencies, before they gang up on the party having a majority in the province, that too entirely for political reasons.
