Did Democracy win? I don't know about that - I cannot agree that democracy won - Were these elections managed? Well, I think so - PTI's power base was Punjab and it garnered a majority in KPK - huh? Did we really have it wrong?? Well, I suppose it's possible -- but either way, it's a start for PTI -- for those who will not allow themselves to be disillusioned and crushed by defeat and who will remember that defeat is just another step closer to success, I would encourage them to be reminded that "Naya Pakistan" is not just a slogan, it's content is a powerful moral and ethical call to action, it is a cultural transformation - Yes Sir, We want nothing to do with ethnic, caste, gender and class affiliation "Naya Pakistan" moral appeal is not in the word "Naya" but in a Pakistan where "Insaaf" is a birth right and so long as it is denied to Pakistanis, the work of PTI needs doing.
It is beingh hoped that in the mess of KPK, the PTI's message will lose it's appeal, that it's government will be allowed to fail, starved of resources and it's attention diverted, it's energies spent in bickering, it's leadership decimated by terrorists and the temptations of the public treasury-- but if these challenges scare you, if you are disillusioned and your resolve weakened, remember you came to win, and you cannot throw up your hands in the face of obstacles and challenges - you came to win, so the real work must begin - no, not at the level of government, but rather mohallah, chak, abaadi by abaadi - Naya Pakistan is a cultural idea, a spiritual idea, an ethical idea, a moral proposal to allow Pakistanis to right the wrongs.
