Dear Sir/Madam,
Dare to raise your voice for the inevitable socio-political change in Pakistan, to empower Pakistani people, whom the country belongs to.
Since the creation of Pakistan the Pakistani people have been left at a distance from the corridors of power so that the ruling elite can do what they wanted to do in favour of their own interests, leaving the Pakistani people at the mercy of circumstances. As this policy is a denial of the right of Pakistani people to rule their own country according to their aspirations and desires - a country which can provide equal opportunity to all without any discrimination, leading to establishment of a welfare society. Only a society based on tolerance, equality and justice can be the real guarantee for a prosperous and strong Pakistan, therefore we must raise our voices and express our concerns at this crucial moment in Pakistan?s history ? to do otherwise would lead to a disaster, a point of no return for our beloved country.
We have already lost the major part of Pakistan in 1971 simply to save the centralised sole power whose sole intention was to exploit this country for the ruling elite class. A nation was divided for the sole interest of very few. In the present circumstances we are once again slowly and painfully dragging our sovereignty at stake, only this time for the external interest. It is ironic that this is once again being done in the name of national interest. We must remind our leaders that the real national interest is the interest of Pakistani people at large.
Mr.Musharaf, is not a problem nor the restoration of chief justice can make a difference, rather it is the prevailing socio-political system which is destroying our national institutions and victimizing the patriotic people like Dr.Qadeer khan, who provided a strong sense of security, achievement and pride to the nation - we can no more tolerate the humiliation of patriotic Pakistanis for the pleasures of external interests.
The current system with centralize power at the centre which is in the hands of a few, wherein transparency and accountability can not be established, is responsible for all the mess we are currently in and requires a change for the prosperity of Pakistani people. Pakistani people have been deprived from their right to rule this country in all the 60 years of independence ? this must stop, otherwise exploitation and injustice will continue to exist in one form or the other.
The only way out of these crucial circumstances is to empower the common Pakistani at a grass route level i.e. the change of system. This change is inevitable in order to achieve a prosperous Pakistan, which is able to provide basic guarantees for the creation of welfare state, where in public representatives and institutions are answerable and accountable to the masses.
