Our callous leaders

We are spending billions of rupees in campaigns for conventions in Lahore and Karachi.

Meanwhile the father of two committed suicide in front of parliament lodges in Islamabad.

The media did not give proper coverage to the death of this common man because he did not belong to Bhutto family, or Sharif family, or Chaudhry family, or Shah family. He was not as rich and under corruption charges as Monis Elahi. He was not Chief Minister of Punjab chanting slogans against President. He was not Raja Riaz responding to accusations of Chief Minister, Punjab.

A man with two kids cannot feed his children, what else is he supposed to do? But the authorities were busy in hanging banners and placing billboards for their leaders. No leader expressed sorrow for that poor man or his children. What will these callous leaders do in future if they don’t care for them now?

I feel ashamed sometimes being part of this nation. We write, we speak, we protest for every non-issue but never for a common person. Killing yourself is not a good option but he set an example for all of us by not robbing a bank, by not kidnapping anyone for ransom, not praising someone to earn extra money and by not stealing millions of rupees from NICL.

I hope someone takes notice for his family. Our leaders should not have spent millions of rupees in campaigns for their conventions but should have spent that money for providing food and other necessities for hungry children and unemployed people of Pakistan.

  1. The people of this country are not only Deaf and Blind but I would say they lack all the senses. They don't have any emotions or feelings and because of it the so called leaders used them and discard them like toilet papers. The right place for the People of Pakistan is in hell (Currently Pakistan is not worst then Hell). Unless other wise these people stand up for their rights and dispose these leaders and find Real Patriotic People, their condition wouldn't improve.

  2. our leaders only care about themselves and protect their positions they dont care about us. even they did not came into power by our votes but by bogus votes then why would they care about us
