Pakistan- An experiment or A State !!!
India and Pakistan together account for one fifth of the world’s population. Their size and influence have made the continued conflict between them a long-standing cause of global concern. Their adversarial relationship has been marked by three major wars, rival allegiances with other powers (including China, the former Soviet Union, and the United States), many military skirmishes and violent incidents, and a nuclear arms buildup
The “two-nation” theory, espoused by Mohammad Ali Jinnah and other leaders of the Muslim League, held that Hindus, who constituted the majority in most of British India, and Muslims, who constituted the majority only in British India’s northeast and northwest corners, should not be forced to live together in one nation, but should each be granted their own country. To safeguard the rights of Muslims, Jinnah and others argued, they must be granted their own state. “Pakistan”—an Urdu-language word meaning “land of the pure”—was coined in the 1930s and became the name of the proposed Muslim nation. This was the base being made by muslims for a separate country "Pakistan" .
Then came the time , in 1947 when Pakistan came into being after negotiations and struggle by leaders of Pakistan Muslim League.India and Pakistan immediately went to war in 1947 over the disputed territory of Kashmir, a thinly populated province between the two nations. The local Hindu maharaj (ruler) of Kashmir, given the choice to join either Pakistan or India, chose India despite the fact that its population was mostly Muslim. The war ended with a 1949 cease-fire that left the state of Kashmir split in two, with India ruling the eastern two-thirds of Kashmir while Pakistan gained control of the western third. Kashmir was also the cause of the 1965 war between India and Pakistan; the fighting ended in a military stalemate with the division of Kashmir unchanged. And third war resulted in separation of east Pakistan from west Pakistan (Bangladesh of today).
Pakistan , now 65 years of age still struggling to establish itself as a "State" and still many people ( Including many pakistanis ) are happy to describe it as an "Experiment" instead of state. Reason being "Political instability" , in those 65 years almost 35 years were of dictatorship where people of pakistan had no say at all , remaining 30 years of democracy were wasted by the political parties themselves through fightings among parties. In those 30 years of democracy , people of pakistan suffered more than dictatorships. And it made the way for army to take over the government .
Since , 1970 elections just 2 parties have made government in pakistan its either Paksitan Peoples Party or Pakistan Muslim League( Being devided now in severa; fractions) . And even now its PPP government except Punjab where PML is in government (PMLN). And these four n half years are said to be the worst in history of Pakistan. People of Pakistan have now tried everything from dictatorship to 5 years of full term democracy and the problems of Pakistan r still there but experimentation is still going on .
In the end , Just a bird's eyeview of major problems in pakistan
Monstrous Debt
Education
61.2% of Pakistan illiterate
50.0% male illiteracy
75.6% female illiteracy
Poverty
Uneducated population unattractive to foreign business
Difficult to recruit foreign businesses
Only 38 million of 142 million make up work force
7% unemployment, but 34% of people in poverty
No foreign investment
7th highest population world wide (2000)
142,000,000
Taxes world and local resources
Water, land, fossil fuels
3rd largest population by 2050
2.17 current growth rate
Solution to these problems is simple but the seasoned politicians have made it complicated by indulging in dirty poltics. we just need 3 things and Pakistan will b a "State" instead of "Experiment".
1. Rule of Law ( Can't happen untill police nd law enforcement institutions are depoliticised.)
2. Educational emergency in country
3. Economic reforms (Decreasing expenditures , utilising own resources )
Whoever does that with honesty is a "Hero" in history of Pakistan. And the beautifull land of pakistan is still waiting for that "Hero" who will give this country what it deserves and will put the stamp of "State" on Pakistan .... That Day will come , Insha Allah.
