Just when things were going well in the constitutional committee, the Pakistan political scene took a twist when the leader of the Muslim league – N decided to take a U turn on the issue of the constitutional amendments. The Nawaz league’s main reservation stems from its rigid stance on changing the name of the Frontier Province from NWFP to Pukhtoonkhwa. The ANP lead government of the frontier province has made it a part of its election to manifesto to bring out about this change. For this it has the support not only of the people of the province but of other major political parties as well. But some elements from within the PML-N, belonging to the frontier province are against it. They have managed to blackmail Nawaz Sharrif, which has brought the leader from Lahore under the national spot light for all the wrong reasons. Every major media outlet has been criticizing this move by Nawaz sharrif. Although, NS himself has shown some remnants of maturity during the last two years or so, his party remains the vanguard of the Zia era. Unless and until, PML-N sheds the baggage of the right wing agenda, it will continue to be part of the problem and not the solution.

PML-N playing the spoil sport

Destiny is trying to thrust greatness on Mian Sahib but he doesnt seem to be capable of sharing this historical responsibilty. Stubborn, self centred, narrow minded, foolish, tunnel visioned are just some of his qualities out of his multifarious portfolio of complex personality.
That is all we have Aasim. Badluck...
Gee, I'm getting tired of looking at this guy!!

Mian Sahb is just not ready to break his neutrality status
Nawaz Sharif has failed to emerge as a national leader in these times when the country is witnessing the worst times of its history. His only aim seems to be trial of Musharraf, since he played foul with his person. But he is keeping his eyes closed on what goes otherwise around. Inever liked the guy before, but I dont like him at all.
