Un/favourable decision

Saturday, Jul 20, 2024

The Supreme Court decision on reserved seats in favour of the PTI appears to have caught the incumbent government off-guard and left it bewildered. It is important to keep in mind that each decision in favour of one’s rivals is not necessarily politically motivated and engineered. It is the duty of the government to accept the Supreme Court’s decision in letter and spirit and it reserves the right to file a review against this judgment. Trying to ban the PTI will do the country no favours and only raise political enmities and uncertainty. Our history shows that such bans never really work. The divide between the parties must be filled and maximum efforts must be made to unite the whole nation.
