the government has bought time but it wont end the problem.
I think this is perhaps the most potent analysis...
I would say the following with it.
The government hasn't conceded any ground from their initial stand. They repeatedly wanted to solve this without violence and without having to concede ground like resignations e.t.c. it is a positive. The review petition was already filed and its the right of the complainant to file it and during such proceedings a person can't be allowed to leave. Normally here is how review work. You have a preliminary hearing where you highlight what is the wrong in the judgment after which in 99% cases the review is thrown aside bcz a serious oversight of fact or law is required to convince the very judge that has made the decision ( the hearing review bench is the same is the same as the one in order).. If accepted then the case is reopened and hearings and arguments are heard on that overlooked fact or law.
The thing is that as you said its a time buyer. For now they have been removed from the streets but this is temporary bcz come the next decision they will be back. The time bought has not solved the issue however this time bought must not be and serious effort should be placed to take them down slowly and surely and precisely.
A strong hand action can only be given by a govt secure in its power, unity and public. The current govt and the last one were neither and this is where
@Indus Pakistan highlights the point very correctly as to why the govt irrespective of their strength and position in parliament keep bowing down to any religious group protesting... Its bcz they have no faith in the opposition nor in the state organs nor in the public. lal masjid is perhaps it's greatest example and it to this day plays in the mind of our rulers.
All in all. The result of this truce can only he found in how the govt avails the time provided in this delaying tactics.
One thing is for sure. Complacency cannot be tolerated this time. The country be shut down through systemic protests by a few hundreds in a city across Pakistan. It simply can't. This must end and the govt must look into this matter. Today they apologize for their harsh words against state and its organs. Tomorrow they may go further and further... .
For once let's not be reactionary and be proactive..
Sigh... Well atleast the rubbish ends.. Haha I said the same thing in 2017. Deja vu.
