Some of our political parties have made the choice to allow individuals who have adopted another nationality to continue to dominate our politics and continue with plundering its assets, aid the flight of capital and then flee to evade accountability.
The PPP and MQM have clearly come out in support of this amendment, which compromises our sovereignty and allows foreign passport holders to hold key sensitive posts like president, PM, CM, ministers, governors, ministers etc, and have control of our nuclear assets and state exchequer. These people only possess NICOP giving them multiple entries into Pakistan with unlimited stay, although they have voluntarily surrendered Pakistani passport upon acquiring foreign passport. This constitutional amendment will give legitimacy to role of men who have sworn loyalty to other countries and hence have little stake in this one. It is time other political parties like PML(N), PML(Q), PTI, JUI(F), JI come clear on this issue, so that the people know actual facts, since ANP alone has announced its opposition.
