Either Nawaz Sharif is the greatest economic genius of this world or he built his industry through corruption, over-invoicing, commissions, SROs, access to loans from nationalised banks, evading taxes and utility bills. Even the way the government has gone after defaulters of utility bills smacks of insincerity. While those who had no Muslim League connection were harassed, PML parliamentarians and party sympathisers were not touched. In fact, the head of FIA was sacked for laying hands on influential members the ruling party who were taking dollars out of the country. The sincerity of this government was also exposed during the local bodies elections.
Local bodies are the bedrock of democracy.
This can only be done once the respected citizens are incharge of the local councils. The recent elections in Punjab witnessed violence of the highest intensity in our history. More that 60 people died and hundreds were injured. The Muslim League gave tickets to known criminals and corrupt elements just to capture control of the local bodies. Massive rigging, police intimidation and money was used to win the elections.
