Current Political Situation of Pakistan:

Pakistan is a developing country and it is politically unstable but we live in the world where everything is possible. Democratic governments have always failed to complete their tenure which eventually results in a long lasting dictatorship reign. In current Political Situation of Pakistan, there is a clear domination by few families only and these families have never produced long lasting fruitful results.

                    The political system has been stagnant since 70′s and no drastic change has taken place. The chair of head of state has been a war between the head of the army staff and a few noticeable political leaders. Who has suffered? Well, you guessed it right, the nation!

                    If we observe the political situation of Pakistan, much of the politics is based on different ethnic groups. It’s fair to say that the current political situation of Pakistan is in dire need of substantial changes if we compare it to the political systems of leading nations in the world.

           In Pakistan Politics almost every party represents a particular ethnic group, therefore no party has got the support in every region because the role of political parties in Pakistan is very much based upon different ethnic groups they represent. This is one of the major reasons of slow development in some specific areas as compared to others. There are a number key problems in political system of Pakistan, & the list grows on and on with every passing minute.

                 Pakistani politics has started to take an adverse route as the layman pursues to struggle in the rut. The current situation in Karachi and Baluchistan is worse than ever. The blame of these riots clearly is on politicians who are just manipulating different groups to get benefits for themselves. If the current political situation in Pakistan does not change, the country would keep on suffering at the hands of monarchs and waderas!

The role of youth in current political situation of Pakistan seems to be missing in this scenario and needs to be looked upon if the country is to strive for betterment. One possible solution for the underlying problem is to improve the problems of education system that erodes as every day falls behind.

            These points will elaborate the current political situation of Pakistan and the causes of this situation.

1. There is no doubt the society as a whole is corrupt and the upper classes are more corrupt than others.
2. The state institutions are corrupt.
3. It is believed that if corruption is eradicated, everything will be OK.
4. That is why the higher judiciary today is admired.
5. It is forgotten that corruption will only be curbed, if not eradicated, when there is a strong democratic dispensation in place, a strong parliament being key to it.
6. The admiration for the higher judiciary shows the people are being motivated by considerations of private morality.
7. The demand for a strong democracy and a sovereign parliament lies in the domain of public morality.
8. Both private morality and public morality are needed, but private morality can only thrive when public morality is established and is strong.
9. The present crisis reflects the tension between the demands of private and public moralities.
10. The eilte can afford to live in a society without public morality.
11. Therefore they are clamouring for the prevalence of clean private morality.
12. The demand for social justice can only be met if there is a strong democracy.
13. It is not the question of which is better: social justice or democratic dispensation.
14. What is needed to realise is that without democracy there cannot be a fair society.
15. If we fail to make democracy prevail, we will collapse.
