2023.05.17 11:12 Pak_Info_Bot President Arif Alvi's piece on the current situation: The history of being declared a traitor begins with the Rawalpindi Conspiracy Case. When Fatima Jinnah contested the election against President Ayub Khan, she was defamed as a candidate and declared anti-state.
Hubris and egos or humility and wisdom — what should prevail?
I have been thinking whether my interest in politics is because of nature (my genes) or nurture (experiences). In undivided India, my father was the President of the Nainital Muslim League. He was arrested immediately after the partition and spent six months in jail on fabricated charges of ‘anti-state’ activities and was only released when my mother wrote to Jawaharlal Nehru who was my father’s patient.The earliest memory of my life is that of a three-year-old. We used to live in the clinic of my father facing Victoria Road in Karachi directly across Paradise Cinema. The students were protesting on the road on January 9, 1953. Suddenly, there was commotion and shots were fired. My father (and I observing from between his legs) watched from the balcony. Tear gas shells and, immediately thereafter, real bullets were fired. I remember seeing a body slumped on the road. An inspector warned my father to go inside. That’s all I remember. Reflecting on it today, it was a story of hubris that has been repeated throughout our history.
Protesting students were pushed aside by a flag-carrying automobile whose occupant was Minister of Interior, Mr Mushtaq Gurmani. That is when the firing started. Gurmani lost consciousness because of tear gas and was lifted away. Sadly and criminally, 26 students were killed. The first to lose his life was a young boy scout, Nainsuk Lal, who was tending to a bullet-injured student protester. The entire city joined the protest and life was paralysed. Public property was damaged including Gurmani’s car. During the negotiations that followed, peace was restored on the appeal of a student leader Kazim, not on the request of the government. Did we learn anything?
The next year in 1954 in memory of those killed, a convention was held in Katrak Hall. Mr AK Brohi, then a Minister, was supposed to speak. Gurmani felt insulted the year before, he was also against negotiations that had brought peace, and his hubris and ego was yearning for revenge. Brohi arrived, but a planned pandemonium was started with plain clothes people along with arranged gangsters mixing among the students unknown to them. The peace squad among students was led by Dr Adeeb Rizvi (of SIUT today).
Our long history of labelling parties and leaders as traitors and anti-state dates back to 1951 when the Rawalpindi Conspiracy case was initiated. Those arrested included Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Maj Gen Akbar Khan, Sajjad Zaheer and Capt Zafarullah Poshni (who recently died and has written an excellent book, Prison Interlude, a memoir of those days). A special law was passed to try them. All were sentenced but then released after four years of imprisonment when an Appeals Court declared the allegations to be totally false. I simply cannot imagine Faiz Sahib, and the army personnel of that time to be traitors.
I move forward to Fatima Jinnah’s burial in 1965. She was maligned as a candidate and was labelled as anti-state when she contested against President Ayub Khan. When she died, my father and I, as a young matriculate, were at her funeral. A huge crowd was there. Because of a few isolated slogans, tear gas was fired right into the centre of the huge but peaceful crowd, which turned violent. We never learnt.
Mujeeb was called a traitor following Agartala Conspiracy Case. Ayub Khan refused to invite him to the Round Table Conference (RTC) in 1969 but relented when the opposition insisted. The RTC collapsed in a couple of days because of the clear inability of the politicians to reach a deal. However, many politicians in East Pakistan were dubbed traitors and the rest is history. Imagine our desperation, when hubris had spectacularly failed, that before Mujeeb was released, Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto went to meet him in prison and urged him to consider a loose confederation.
Hyderabad conspiracy case was instituted in 1975 by PM Zulfikar Ali Bhutto Shaheed in which National Awami Party (NAP) was banned. Its entire leadership including Wali Khan, Bizenjo, Ataullah Mengal, Khair Bakhsh Marri, Najam Sethi and Habib Jalib were arrested and tried for treason. The 3rd Constitutional Amendment was passed hurriedly to give a very broad definition to anti-state activities. I remember reading an excellent 40-page patriotic rejoinder of Mr Wali Khan on the allegations of treason. Were the above traitors? We should also not forget that in July 1977, when politicians delayed the conclusion of negotiations, it provided an excuse for an 11-year-long takeover that was painful in all respects.
Many experiments have been conducted and many somersaults taken in our political processes, for example, the ‘creation’ of political parties, the creation of their anti-dotes, then destroying them, then creating ‘pro-Pakistan’ alternates, then destroying them too. Suppression, then appeasement, then accommodation — policies emerging from the thinking of whoever was in power, rather than through a serious, broad-based, inclusive strategic process.
Where do we go from here? I urge everybody to take a deep breath. I will stick my neck out as I have learnt from experience and history both, and state that no political party today has ever been anti-Pakistan or that it comprises traitors. Excesses have been committed by all during our history, out of frustrations including during the MRD. When all avenues are closed, anger in all its dimensions is the only route left which then colours the national landscape into a lethal red.
I have urged all stakeholders to ‘Think Again’, and have even gifted a book of the same title by Adam Grant to many of them. An outstanding example of today is the remarkable peace achieved between Iran and Saudi Arabia. A great achievement of their leaders, kudos to HH Mohammad bin Salman and Irani leadership along with the positive role played by our friend China. This signifies a major reversal of thinking by these great leaders, who would go down in history for ending decades of animosity.
Can we find a similar greatness in our leadership? I personally know there are many on all sides of the spectrum, including in the establishment, but everyday events and hot exchanges between them fogs their perception into dangerous arguments, even unrealistic questions are floated like, ‘Are you with Pakistan or against Pakistan?’
The first and last thing elders would say would be to cool down, learn from the past, and save the family. Our friends who have a clear view from outside are urging us too. Those nations achieve greatness that learn from history. Those who don’t are forgettable dots in the sands of time. I have been urging all that we desperately need to find a solution. I am confident that Inshallah better sense will prevail and with the spirit of forgiveness (dar-guzar) we will succeed in sorting out our disputes. A lot of work is to be done, and many golden chapters are to be written. Long Live Pakistan!

 | INSURGENTSM99 (Syria)SVD (Syrian) US soldier with captured Garand (Iraq) Mosin Nagant (TIP Fighter, Syria) MG3 (Syria) PKM (Afghanistan) FN FAL (Syria) AK 74 (TIP fighter, Syria) AKM (Syrian Opposition) AK ALPHA (Xhemati Alban merc, Syria) M61A2 (Syria) FAMAS F1 (Afghanistan) QBZ 97, AUG A1, Colt M4 (smuggled weapons, Yemen) AK-74u (Humble goat farmer and \"Freedom fighter\", Afghanistan) \"DIO TK9 Tondar\" - Irani MP5 Copy Sterling (Libya) UZI (Israel) bombing drones (iraq) NOTESI could not find any pictures or info on the AS VAL being used in middle east.this is just specualtion but if the AS VAL were to appear i would be on hands of Russian Forces or in Hands of a Malhama tactiacal mercenary since most of their fighters come from chechenia. the AS VAL has appear previously on stashes of chechen terrorists in the Caucasus. Because of the themes of Insurgency Sandstorm, specially on the "Russian Mercenary" in the Insurgents faction i can see somehow viable to put the AS VAL in game. Maybe is a weapon that the mercs bring from chechenia?? (this region is big on arms trafficking). Personally i would have liked a more realistic weapon choice, the VSK 94 is used by the Syrian Arab Army uses the same caliber as the AS VAL and its role is similar. VSK 94s (Syrian Arab Army) GALIL...Again i could not find any pictures of the galil being used by middle east insurgent groups, but my guess is that HAMAS may have some of them since they are often seen with IDF AR CarbinesIDF AR carbine on hands of HAMAS fighter |
2017.10.31 00:54 JawaharlalNehru Congress and Rahul Gandhi are viable option for 2019. Please read before reacting.
Rahul Gandhi
Hear me out please.
First, he's a good person. This point is not debated by anyone. India with its 200 million Muslims and 50 million Christians(not exact figures) needs a sane non communal leader. We're never gonna be Hindu™ nation(unless BJP finds a way to gas quarter of a billion humans). India was at its peak under Akbar and Shivaji. Guess what was different with them? Akbar didn't discriminate on basis of religion. Shivaji didn't even discriminate on caste.
Second, he listens to experts. He will listen to Tharoor. He will listen to Chidambaram( corrupt pos, but arguably best option amongst all, will take him any day over Prabhu/Irani). He'll listen to the mother fucking RBI governor. We'll have a proper government. He'll never choose people like Yogi.
Third, he's the only option. AK isn't stepping up. Tharoor doesn't want to. Today there are only 4 people in the country who'll draw crowds in every state, every town regardless of the situation. Modi, Sonia, Rahul and AK. People are willing to consider arguments from only these 4.
Fourth, he'll probably not become the PM. Sonia didn't. He has no reason to. Being party president is any day better than being the PM. Congress has no shortage of beaurocrats and intellectuals. I'm sick and embarrassed of 'IT+IT = IT' type PM.
Lastly, corruption. Frankly, this is the only negative point. However it must be pointed out that even after 3 years in power, not one Congress leaders has been arrested, let alone convicted. It must be noted that in today's hyper vigilant era, chances of corruption are low. Plus BJP is also fairly corrupt. Adani didn't get billion dollar loan from SBI for nothing. Nitin Gadkari is now competing with Sharad Pawar.
Also, 2019 government will probably be a coalition. What's the point of voting BJP if we end up with BJP+DMK+NCP government?
