For the past 65 years Pakistan has been ruled by a parliementry system or under a military ruler.This is the first time in 2013 that a parliament has managed to serve 5 years in the goverment otherwise through out the history ,the military had taken over the country to bring in stability into the country. However, we Pakistanis have clearly seen that neither the army nor the Parliament system has been successful in helping Pakistan escape from its tremory .
2 main parties have been serving Pakistan since the 1970's which include the Peoples Party and The Muslim League Nawaz. Though PPP has been elected 4 times in the cabinet, they have never been able to eliminate poverty in the country.In 1973 ,Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto established the party promoting their famous slogan "Roti, Kapra, Makaan" but his rules and legislations of nationalizing 90% of the private sector distrupted the economy as a whole with only a little support in favour for the poor. Both Muslim league and Peoples party were held accountable to heavy corruption due to which their governments were dissolved twice making nothing better than just the weightage of loans from IMF. Even today Pakistan is liable to pay above $60 billion to IMF which does not seem possible seeing the current situation of the country.
Analyzing the situation, it is felt that we as Pakistanis themselves should do something if they want a change in our country. The necessary thing which needs to be done is to vote to the right people who we think can do better for the country. Hence all Pakistanis should vote to people who they think would turn out to be best not only for them but for the whole country. Electoral Rigging is one major problem in Pakistan when many vote boxes are stolen or votes are converted in favour of other parties. This is only possible when the security outside the polling booths are involved in money laundering.Tradions of strong familes in villages and their history of supporting a particular party is also a major reason for the same parties being elected. Secondly a strong corruption board should be established under the directorship of non parliamentry citizens who would have the authority to punish anyone indulged in corruption scandals. There is daily corruption of Rs 10-12 Billion in Pakistan. Another problem lies in the tax collection system .The country follows the regressive tax system at the moment where the rich and elite are exemted from paying taxes while the poor and the middle class pay. Our media has played an important role by showing and proclaiming the wrong where as the the supreme court has also taken action against various issues in Pakistan such as the Shahzeb Khan murder case. In the end whats important is that the youth should participate in social charity events such and support any social cause in the country.Charity begings from home, . The conclusion would include that an effective corruption board should be established with a proper tax system to allocate the budget properly. Enough revenue being generated for the country would improvise all sectors by a far extent.
