THIS is apropos of your editorial ‘A Qadir googly’ (Feb 23). The feudal agricultural land owner enjoys an undue advantage over other Pakistanis.
If an ordinary Pakistani wants to buy a property, he would have to explain his source of income, which would need to be verified by the income tax authorities.
If, for instance, a person earns Rs50,000 a month, he cannot suddenly buy a five-million-rupee plot or a 15-million-rupee vehicle, saying that he found the money in the garbage heap outside his house.
