Leaders wanted, not politicians

This is with reference to Malik Tariq Ali’s letter published in Pakistan Today on 30 April regarding Imran’s leadership test. No doubt the people of Pakistan, especially youth, are anxiously looking towards Imran Khan to lead them in this hour of crisis.

Imran Khan has leadership qualities which he exhibited in SKMT cancer hospital, Nimal University, construction of model villages in flood affected areas and even during his tenure as Pakistan cricket team captain, whereas the other politicians are the ones who can be truly termed as hypocrites who have done nothing except corruption in the last 25 years.

Malik sahib’s letter does not depict the factual position and is based on assumptions rather than facts. I am following Imran Khan’s politics since the last fifteen years and have noted that unlike the other traditional politicians, he is not only honest but is also a genuine leader.

He was the first leader who identified and pursued the missing persons case in 2002 and later on, through Yvonne Ridley raised the issue of a woman held captive in Afghanistan which was later identified as Aafia Siddiqui.

He and his party are continuously supporting missing person case and even he visited their camp at Islamabad last week. As far as issues of Bhoja air, Ephedrine, Shaheen air are concerned, Imran Khan has rightly pointed out that such cases will surface again and again as all our institutions have collapsed due to lack of accountability. These issues will not be resolved by only condemning them, we have to change the system by making supreme the rule of law and making the top people accountable.

Would Malik sahib tell us: “In which capacity Nawaz Sharif used the Punjab government’s plane to visit Siachen?” Three million rupees incurred on this trip were taken from taxpayers’ money.

We, the so-called educated class, should not appreciate politicians who are consuming public funds for their own projection. The use of taxpayers’ money for their own and party projection should not be appreciated but should be condemned by all.

  3. Imran Khan no doubt has created some waves, but of late there is a lot of confusuin within the party's leaders. Imran Khan Shaeb says that he does not accept Yusuf Raza Gillani as the PM after his conviction, but just today Imran Usman has stated that in his opinion Yusuf R Gillani is legally still the PM. What sort of politics of principles is this and will such a disjointed group bring about a change and justice.

  4. wipe out all intelligence agencies who kill and persecute innocent people from the cia, fbi, mossad, raw, the fbi, csis, rcmp, the nsa and all of their contractors, wipe out dyncorp and Xe (blackwater), erik prince, wipe out raymond davis. These are the tormentors of mankind. Send them to Allah so Allah can punish them unceasingly! Ameen!

  5. Imran Khan and his party it seems is more obsessed with hatred of Nawaz Shariff than oppossing the PPP or supporting rule of law and supremacy of SC. It is public knowledge that TIPled by Javed Hashmit supported the PPP candidate in Multan Bye Elections, and there is some sort of electoral alliance, which is why this half hearted stand on PM GILLANI CONVICTION
