In Pakistan, the constitution and the law do not determine politics.
Political compulsions determine the constitution and the law.
Those who link the imposition of emergency and governor’s rule in KPK with democracy are themselves misguided and are also misleading others.
In KPK there was Imrani democracy. That is, a personalized system of government centered around personal imperatives.
Those who think that democracy has suffered a great loss are showing ignorance of Pakistan’s political dynamics.
The current political situation is fluid. The outcome will depend on which party uses it and how for its own objectives.
The last thing to remember is that Pakistan’s political dynamics have nothing to do with governance — whether it was KPK, or is KPK, or any other part of Pakistan.
