True science is based on formulas, one oxygen and two hydrogen makes the water and it is proved in the laboratory and again can be repeated, where as social science has no such formulas, yet being science it has some indicators. In Egypt, Muhammad Morsis government was surrounded by the people, Egyptian Army carried on saying to resolve the issue by dialogue. Morsi could not resolve the issue and refused to step down, hence General Sisi took over. Same story is repeated in Thailand. Military overthrew the elected government of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. All the warning indicators are on in Islamabad, Azadi and Inqalab March are sitting in front of Parliament. There is visible dead lock between Dharna participant and govt. Elected Prime Minister has refused to step down while addressing the parliament session. On the other hand Mr. Imran Khan and Mr. Tahir Ul Qadri have refused to get back without the resignation of Mr. Nawaz Sharif. Government is under serious pressure. Pakistan Army has to issue two statements within one day, stating that resolve the issues through dialogue. A very fine, logical, valid and suitable stage is ready for the Pakistan Army to take over the government, as what else the solution could be? For how many days, Dharna could be carried on? For how much time span government will neither respond to their demands nor will use force in order to disperse participants of Dharna / long march? Contrary to its history, Pakistan Army will not take over as General Sharif is considered a true soldier, due to critical economical situation of the country and International pressure as Americans government has also casted its vote in the favor of Mr. Nawaz Sharif today, and it is a positive sign for the govt. because USA supported governments have no threat in Pakistan (a general perception). However we cannot reject the role of Army in totality. This time a different style of martial law, a hybrid martial law, may be implemented. Army backed civilian care taker setup is expected if govt. fails to clear this dead lock. Long live Pakistan. |
