The situation in Pakistan is showing that this country is going to be divided into four parts.

The situation is getting out of control after the arrest of former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan and then his release. Even after this, the sword of arrest is hanging on him, because the Supreme Court of Pakistan has not acquitted him in the case, only the place from where he was arrested, the method has been wrong. During this period whatever happened or is happening in Pakistan cannot be considered beneficial for Pakistan in any way. The workers of Tehreek-e-Insaf party have done the work of throwing Pakistan into the fire of political terror. To create such a situation in Pakistan, which has been facing a very pathetic situation for the last several years, would be like shooting an ax at its own feet. This is the reason why the situation in Pakistan is getting worse day by day. In such a situation, demonstrating dangerously against the government is becoming a danger bell for Pakistan somewhere. Due to this the condition of Pakistan will only worsen.

The anomaly of Pakistan is that terrorism is openly sheltered there. The government which provides protection to the terrorist bosses is forced to act on their signal even if they don’t want to. Not only this, Pakistan’s army also behaves like terrorists for other countries. Looking at the situation in Pakistan today, it can easily be said that terror is not spread only by terrorists, but terror is resorted to at every level. The way the political demonstration was done now, that demonstration is less visible to spread terror. Although the arrest of any big leader is not a new thing for Pakistan. Even before this, corruption cases have been filed against the leaders. When a new government is formed, the head of the previous government has to be a victim of political rivalry. Nawaz Sharif, the brother of the current Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, has also become a victim of this. To put it plainly, it would be logical to say that the whole of Pakistan is doing politics with the concept of political enmity.

As far as the army of Pakistan is concerned, it is well known that the government of Pakistan is formed under the protection of the army, as soon as the government comes in opposition to the army, then either the government of Pakistan is overthrown or the army is replaced by someone else. By giving support to the parties, a new government is formed. It is noteworthy that when Imran Khan’s party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf came to power in Pakistan, then Imran Khan’s party got a clear majority with some parties, at this time Imran had full support of the army. A year ago, Shehbaz Sharif became the Prime Minister of Pakistan by ousting the Imran Khan government from power. This time the performance in support of Imran Khan is in a dangerous condition. This can be gauged from the fact that internet services have been stopped all over Pakistan after the incidents of arson. There, stones are being pelted dangerously at government vehicles. Due to which more than eight civilians and workers have been killed on the one hand, while many have also been injured. There are clear indications from these incidents that Pakistan is moving towards a huge civil war. To put it plainly, it would be appropriate to say that in Pakistan its own citizens have become enemies of each other’s lives. Means, by creating an environment full of terror, they are becoming thirsty for each other’s blood. This type of situation cannot be said to be right in any way for a troubled country like Pakistan, because Pakistan can never recover in this type of infighting. By the way, it would be logical to say that violence, arson and stone pelting in the name of protest is not the solution to any problem, rather it is like making that problem more formidable. It is worth mentioning that by arson in the protests, the work of targeting the government, administration and army has been done. Which indicates that this demonstration is against the government and the army. The workers of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party are uncontrollable, neither the administration is able to muster the ability to stop them nor the workers of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf are seen in a position to stop. That’s why it seems that this fight for existence will go on for a long time. Which will not only become a challenge for the present government, but can also become a big obstacle in the way of Pakistan.

From the time of its birth, Pakistan has been facing the brunt of the wrong policies of its rulers. The current situation is even more dangerous. The people of Pakistan are getting trapped in the quagmire of inflation. The countries from which Pakistan had hope, that hope has also started shattering now. China has left Pakistan in such a place that has a well on one side and a ditch on the other. That is, wherever Pakistan goes, its misery is bound to happen on that side. Second, a new crisis is also emerging in Pakistan that the demand for making autonomous countries in its states is also arising. If this happens then naturally Pakistan will be divided into four parts. Out of this, positive voices are coming towards India in Sindh, Punjab and Balochistan. This also indicates that the mistake that Pakistan had committed 75 years ago, today it is moving towards trying to correct that mistake. Many citizens of Pakistan have openly said earlier also that seeing the plight of Pakistan today, it seems that we would have stayed with India.
