A simple question from all
elected members of Karachi, either in Provincial assembly or National assembly,
if most of the economic activity of
Karachi is dominated by individual
donations from all over the country and people residing outside Pakistan, then what exactly the role of elected people for the development of Karachi and
Pakistan as a whole?
Ideally the elected members for the house of
representation in national and provincial
assemblies are supposed to
suggest Government, how to improve quality of life of the people of
society. If the public elected
candidates fail to do this function, how a society can develop? And
development is a natural right of any society.
Below are the areas of prime
consideration of any Government for its people.
1. Equal rights in society
2. Equal opportunities in the process of development of economy and
society
3. Easy access to health, education, transportation, clean water,
sanitation, civil defense and justice.
4. A social media meant to
keep harmony and peace among the people.
The purpose of above all
information, is not to criticize to any political party, rather just to give
them a source of thought, for the way
for which the people are much waiting
for.
Thanks and stay Blessed all.
