8. BUREAUCRACY’S ROLE IN BRINGING DEMOCRACY
TO ITS KNEES
THE FOUNDER OF PAKISTAN QUAID-I-AZAM MUHAMMAD ALI JINNAH SAID ON 25TH MARCH
1948 IN HIS ADDRESS TO THE CIVIL SERVICE OFFICERS AT CHITTAGONG:“I KNOW YOU ARE SADDLED
WITH THE OLD LEGACY, OLD MENTALITY, OLD PSYCHOLOGY.
MAKE
THE PEOPLE FEEL THAT YOU ARE THEIR SERVANTS AND FRIENDS, MAINTAIN THE HIGHEST STANDARD
OF HONOR, INTEGRITY, JUSTICE AND FAIR PLAY.”

9. FACTORS BEHIND TERRIBLE WEAKNESSES:
SUPERIOR JUDICIARY TO COMPROMISE ITS INDEPENDENCE BY INVOKING THE DOCTRINE OF
NECESSITY COMPOUNDED THE SITUATION.
PERSONALIZATION OF POLITICS:
• THE MILITARY IS MORE POWERFUL
AND RESOURCEFUL THAN ALL OTHER CIVILIAN INSTITUTIONS
AND ORGANS OF THE STATE PUT TOGETHER.
• THIS ENABLES THE MILITARY TO CONTROL CIVILIAN INSTITUTIONS, POLITICAL PROCESSES AND
DEMOCRACY EITHER DIRECTLY OR FROM BEHIND THE CURTAIN.
• WHEN ONE INSTITUTION OF THE STATE RETAINS SUCH UNBRIDLED
POWER, IT BECOMES
EXTREMELY TEMPTING FOR OTHER POLITICAL FORCES TO SEEK ITS ASSISTANCE IN ACQUIRING
POLITICAL OFFICE OR DISLODGING OTHERS FROM POLITICAL OFFICE.

10. EFFECTIVE MEASURES TO STRENGTHEN THE SYSTEM
• TO CREATE PHYSICAL ASSET BY EDUCATING THE MASSES, PROPER ALLOCATING THE LAND,
CREDIT, ZAKAT AND USHER ENSURING COST EFFECTIVE PROVISIONS OF BASIC NEEDS.
IMPROVED EFFICIENCY IN THE PUBLIC AND CORPORATE SECTORS TO PROVIDE RULE OF LAW.
• INDEPENDENCE OF JUDICIARY WILL STRENGTHEN DEMOCRACY, RESTORE TRUST BETWEEN
CENTER AND PROVINCES, AND FACILITATE QUICK DISPENSATION OF JUSTICE.
• DEPOLITICIZING OF PUBLIC DEPARTMENTS
TO AVOID UNJUST POLITICAL PRESSURES.
• PEACE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE BORDERS WILL PROVIDE SUFFICIENT RESOURCES, SKILLS AND
OPPORTUNITIES TO FOCUS ON THE NATIONAL PROSPERITY.

11. • PATRIOT INTELLECTUALS
WRITING TO BRING HARMONY.
• ACCOUNTABILITY AT ALL LEVELS. AUTONOMY
IDEOLOGY.
TO THE
PROVINCES. AWAKENING
OF ISLAMIC
• IT BECOMES THE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE EDUCATED MIDDLE CLASS AND THE CIVIL
SOCIETY TO PROTECT.
• ALL POLITICIANS MUST BE ON BOARD AS PAKISTAN STEERS ITSELF TOWARDS GENUINE
DEMOCRACY AND AWAY FROM TERRORISM AND VIOLENCE THAT HAS BEGUN TO TAKE ROOTS
IN SOCIETY.
• THERE IS AN URGENT NEED FOR BETTER NETWORKING AND COORDINATION AMONG VARIOUS
SECTIONS OF SOCIETY SUCH AS LAWYERS, JOURNALISTS, HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVIST AND
STUDENTS.
11

12. • UNLESS THE PAKISTANI STATE CRAFT IS CONDUCTED WITHIN CONSTITUTIONAL PARAMETERS,
PAKISTAN WILL REMAIN VULNERABLE TO EXTERNAL THREATS.
• TO CREATE A MODERATE SYSTEM OF VALUES THAT ACCOMMODATES DIFFERENT POINTS OF
VIEW, NOT JUST RELIGIOUS BUT ALSO ETHNIC LINGUISTIC AND REGIONAL.
• IT MUST DEVELOP STRATEGY FOR ECONOMIC GROWTH, POVERTY
ALLEVIATION, AND
REDUCTION OF INTERPERSONAL AND INTERREGIONAL INCOME DISPARITIES. IT MUST ALLOW THE
DEVELOPMENT OF INSTITUTIONS THAT WOULD WORK INDEPENDENTLY OF THOSE WHO CONTROL
POLITICS.
• THE JUDICIARY AND THE ELECTION COMMISSION ARE THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT
INSTITUTIONAL DEVICES THAT NEED TO BE FREE OF POLITICAL INFLUENCE. BUT INSTITUTIONS
SUCH AS THE SECP AND THE STATE BANK ALSO NEED TO BE SET FREE.
• MEDIA WILL ITS MAGICAL POWER
CAN UNITE THE WARRING FACTIONS BY MINIMIZING THE
DIFFERENCES THROUGH OPEN DEBATES.
