Pakistan is currently passing through the most tragic moments of her history. The once called pure land is now filled with impurities not only because of the system displayed by government but also because of the inhumane actions carried out by fellow citizens of our nation. The floods sent by nature which are invading our country killing and destroying the lives of many as well as our infrastructure are part of natural disaster but the after mark and the relief for those people is the responsibility of our government which promise average man to fulfill their necessities in such tribal times. Instead our government is busy roaming around the world for aimless issues. The government officials are using such natural disasters as a weapon to target each other instead of helping the trillions who have lost their homes and families.
It is indeed a shame for us that our leader could not cancel his trip to a country which has disrespected our nation during such tribal times denotes any expectations that we can have from our country’s so called leaders. Does that mean we have to survive for ourselves? If this is what we are supposed to do than why do we elect people in first place to lead us and be our supporters in bad times? In actual fact we can’t expect anything from anyone because many our leaders from top to end are corrupted. Even the money in the name of charity goes directly into their pockets.
The plane crash in Margalla hills left all of us plunged. Fifty families are still struggling to find their loved ones dead bodies. Some of talented members of the youth parliament were shattered in the crash. Their loss is disastrous for the youth of our country. The loss is just not the loss of lives but it is the loss of potential that these young people had. Will their sacrifice go to waste or will it revive the revolution in the youth of Pakistan who can be the source of Pakistan’s bright future. Keeping aside the natural disaster which caused many to die, the target killing in Karachi is even more hurtful. The people are killed for what reason is still undercover. The death of a political leader causes the death of hundreds with him who are innocent and away from all this dirty politics. The death of civilians is not justified. The shutting down off schools again leads to illiteracy. The closing down of markets causes billions and trillions of loss a day but who cares in a country which is so filled with dirt. Even we common people have turned into cold-blooded citizens who don’t bother to care for anyone.
We are engrossed in our lives fully which leaves us with no option to care and help others. Please think about it and try to put to use your positive contribution in order for Pakistan to excel as it is every individual’s responsibility.
