State and human rights

A political family headed by a sitting MNA has blocked Islamabad-Phulgran bridge built by the state at a whopping cost of 240 million rupees. So who is more powerful? The sate or a particular family with dubious connections?
This is happening under the nose of the federal government. In this situation, as a senior citizen, I feel unsafe and do not know how I can protect my fundamental rights to life, liberty, property and honor. My children are asking questions beyond my limited capacity to answer.
Anybody with answers in the kingdom of Denmark? Mr Prime Minister, the onus of protecting our rights lies on your shoulders. As I am living in the area under question, I seek answers from you before I knock at other doors for relief to the public adversely affected by this highway robbery.
