@Major Iqbal: Why would he have tears. This is a good thing is it not?
Karachi's importance cannot be overlooked, and the bottom line is that it is hard to imagine a safe and secure Pakistan without a safe and secure Karachi.

@Escaped and @ Ahmed Agreed 101% .
and @ Supersquirrel , speak for yourself .Minority does exist .
@Ahmed - Karachi: @Escaped Mohajir: before talking anything about Punjab just keep in mind that Federal Govt was only 10% occupied by Punjabi Rulers...rest of the Federal Govt tenures are either Led by Sindhis, Mahajirs or Pathans...
For God Sake...this country has given you guys more opportunities than you deserved...stop crying Foul all the time...
@ Dhaka: what are you talking about? You probably had the most corrupted election in south Asian history and most likely will be plunged into a coup--but wait Hasina has already bribed those generals or locked them up just like all her opponents. Your social indicators have improved, but remember that this election and the current setup won't bode well for your nation in the long-term. Pakistan figured it out the hard way and still is but she has made accomplishments in her political atmosphere of reconciliation, unlike your leader--who is still relying on her father's achievements. By the way, I am very glad Pakistanis are very critical of their system in every way--unlike our neighbors, who wish to showcase nothing but good and don't dare to criticize to avoid global attention.
Nawaz Shareef does not need to give any instructions to Sindh’s Govt, you must focus on Punjab. First correct law and order situation in Punjab then speak against any other province. Even MNA’s and their families are not safe in Punjab. You cold not retrieve Ex-Governor’s son kidnapped in broad day light, what are you talking about ?. Sindh Govt can manage better than you.
Yes continue it but what about operation in Balochistan and KPK?
@ Dhaka will your country be so gracious to guide us ??
Good PM, for that you will be remembered in good books of history..
Pakistan is not bangladesh to carry out efficient target operation against monsters, that required will power which your country not possess at all.
Yes, the operation WILL continue but now on the DICTATION and on their Terms and Conditions.
No longer your business sir! It is upto the province Government. Follow the protocals and support the Provincial Government.
