I have often heard the PM and the President, followed by their ministers, that conspiracies are being hatched against PPP. No one mentions details of these conspiracies. It leaves people, including me, bewildered about these conspiracies.
Is NRO and its case in SC a conspiracy? Is Memogate a conspiracy? Is Mansoor Ijaz fake? Is Mehran Bank scandal a conspiracy? Is SC ordering to write a letter to Swiss banks a conspiracy? Is loadshedding a conspiracy? Is massive mismanagement a created conspiracy? Has Railways, PIA etc almost come to a halt out of conspiracy? Is Waheeda Shah’s slap a conspiracy? Is making a poor teacher invalid for life by PPP MPA a conspiracy? Is printing billions of notes a conspiracy?
If all of the above are acts of conspiracies, then 99 percent of them are the doing of present regime. Gilani Sahib could not find any male to testify for him in the SC, except a woman, who holds the record of being three-in-one Federal Secretary and who got grade 22 in her relative youth. Is it the fault of some politicians? In my humble opinion, it is either his incompetent cabinet or his allies in the government who have made all these and many more things happen. Let me advise the PM to stop this useless theory of conspiracy to gain people’s favour. The Shaheeds theory too carries no weight now.
If Mr Gilani and his associates want to return to assembly, they must do something worth the name in these three or four months they still have. These cheap slogans won’t carry them any distance now. I remember a theory that their godfather Zulfikar Ali Bhutto used. That was to ‘disclose the secrets of Tashkent Declaration’. He too never revealed them and went to gallows with those secrets eventually. Mr Gilani or Mr Zardari should come up with novel things. Some suggestions in this regard I can give are ‘the secret of good health on Nawaz Sharif?’ ‘The dubious bowling action Imran Khan had’? ‘The real reason of Shahbaz Sharif’s raising his single finger?’ ‘Why has Sheikh Rashid not married?’
These are just a few lines to toe. To me all these things look like conspiracies against democracy and specifically PPP. I am sure that Babar Awan, Firdaus Ashiq Awan, Rehman Malik, Kaira and associates can think of many other things. Oh, by the way, Katrina Kaif can also be useful to identify more conspiracies when she comes to Islamabad.
I heard that she is being invited by Rehman Malik for consultations on law and order situation. Katrina is expert in maintaining law and order in curvy situations. She, I have heard, is also expert in holding and revealing information. Dr Firdaous Ashiq Awan should also benefit from her time strategies of holding and revealing things. Sania Mirza deceived her earlier on.
