Lonely at the top!Freedom continues to elude Pakis

It seems as if President Musharraf is fast losing friends. The manner in which, his so-called friends are leaving him one by one, leaves nothing to imagination. It is rumoured in the Islamabad political circles that President Musharraf might put Benazir Bhutto off the hook in lieu of her conditional support to his government, but as things stand today, Benazir has vehemently refuted any such deal. Meanwhile, the pressure on Musharraf is increasing day by day. The support for ousted Chief Justice, Iftekhar Chaudhary has swelled, leaving Musharraf worried. This was evident in the recently held rally by Chaudhary that was made out of bound for the media. Reports suggest that more than 50,000 people attended the rally even though the state machinery worked over time to stop them.

But the question arises; has Musharraf been left all alone? The answer is a big ‘NO’. The largest political group Musharraf counts on is Muttahida Qaumi Movement, or MQM. The group, headed by its absconding leader, Md. Altaf Hussain, has time and again demonstrated its support for Musharraf and that too in a way they do the best; by burning cars and ransacking offices. Apart from that, there is a sizable chunk of the Pakistani intellectual class that approves of the tactics of Musharraf and the way of his governance. A Senior Analyst from the Associated Press in Pakistan, Rashid Ali Khan, tells B&E, “No one can deny the fact that Pakistan grew tremendously during the rule of Musharraf, both on the economic as well as strategic front. What happened in Karachi was unfortunate but that does not belittle the stature of Pervez Musharraf.”

It is now certain that Musharraf is in deep trouble. He is gagging the press and jailing the opponents to protect his falling empire. All that one can hope is that both democracy and sanity returns to Pakistan soon.

Women drivers can prevent accidents…

Shall we ever see that day in our life time when in the neighborhood bus stop we would be greeted by a bus-driven, not by a man, but a woman? And would it eventually benefit the society as a whole if at all such a thing eventually happens? Well in a country where more than 90,000 people die in road accidents per year, more than anything else, we need sober drivers who would prevent rash driving and follow the nuances of road etiquette. Well that might just be a little too distant a dream, but small journey on the same line has already begun. In Indore, a few days back, the Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister made similar announcement which no doubt raises hope for Indore transport to pose and be the role model for the entire country.Nevertheeless the chauvinism of a male dominated society would take time to change. A Public Relation personnel with the Delhi Transport Corporation claims, “It will be a ‘rough & tough’ job for them.” Though, in 1982, an effort had been made to employ women in conductor’s seat, but due to excessive public dealing, the assignment proved to be failure. Moreover, CNG fuelled bus engines become 90 degree hot, which is unbearable for women and to maneuver the steering, and controlling a Jumbo DTC bus requires lot of muscle power, which undoubtedly a women cannot afford. Accepted, but in a country where women have proved their abilities as successful social engineers, police officers and entrepreneurs, is driving a bus too difficult a task? You decide.
