Dr. Qadri’s march showed the mood and the determination of the nation. Had he been a little more thoughtful in his approach, made some changes, joined another good political party, he would have brought some real change. With millions of people around him in his march he was still isolated and lonely. He came with millions of people and millions of dollars, but he went back empty handed like the proverbial- prodigal son.

This march was wasted, but could be used for a better purpose.

Action is better than No Action

There has been a status quo on the political scene in Pakistan over months. Except for occasional outbursts by political leaders nothing was happening. The arrival of Dr. Qadri and the long march has woken up the politicians from their slumber and what he spoke, did and achieve in matter of days has amazed every one for or against him.
We should stop spinning conspiracy theories and call a spade a spade. Take this in a positive manner and keep the momentum till such time that a fair elections are held.

It is quite an interesting fact that pakistan is a a country with a written constitution. However, it is told that certain part is not implemented. This is the biggest joke of all. How can you have a law and say we have a law but we dont want to obey it, then why do you have that law. Isn’t this the law of necessity on which our judiciary is ridiculed. Whether imran has benefitted or lost from the long march remains to be seen. The impending elections will decide. I personally feel Imran has lost because he is giving those people chance, whom he knows will never come through. Pakistan should be renamed as bananistan.

I don’t think Dr. Qadri has achieved anything with this long march except causing inconvenience to the locals.and a huge loss to the karachi stock exchange. He was hiding from bombs and bullets himself in a box but left the people vulnerable to such attacks for days not to mention the cold weather they had to bear.
