Imran - Hang On and Pay Heed



Imran Khan laid the foundation of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) after his memorable heroics in sports eventually winning the Cricket World Cup in 1992 and latter resurrected his fame through his contributions in health and education sectors by establishing a cancer hospital in the heart of Pakistan, Lahore and a university of international standard, in Mianwali.

He was a wonderful bowler but there were many even greater than him in the history of cricket. What makes him distinctive and distinguished from others are his fighting skills, charismatic personality and unbending attitude.

That is why despite leaving off the ground for nearly 23 years, he is still one of the most popular, most discussed personalities throughout the world. He has been and still being considered a highly arrogant in nature attributed to high temper yet surrounded by masses and loved.

Political Phase
Though he continuously denied to entering into politics and turned down the ministry offers earlier by General Zia-ul-Haq and latter by Nawaz Sharif before practically into politics, but he eventually entered in politics in late nineties by making his own political party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI). The ideology of the party certainly is a “Movement to Provide Justice in Pakistan” that to me is the SOLE dynamic to erect a dead, dull and shady society.

As expected, people’s response to his party rather movement was as fluffy as of his to them in the past though he fought hard to attract people through exhausting 16-years of worn out, ceaseless sole struggle.

There is no doubt whatsoever about his leadership qualities, fighting abilities or magnetic personality but he must keep in mind that he is an ordinary human blessed by Almighty Allah a lot so there is always a scope to improve. Well he always thanks Allah for His unending blessings upon him what draws more respect and love from people for Imran Khan.

He initiated long march in August 2014 demanding a judicial enquiry of General Elections 2013 in Pakistan over alleged mass rigging by his counter parts especially Pakistan Muslim League (N). The long march then turned a sit-in that lasted for more than 04-months before being called off over ruthless Peshawar attack.

Indisputably he addressed impressively while thunderously criticizing the government policies and ditched the rulers destructively during over hundred days of sit-in followed by in public gatherings all over the country. Countless people from all over the country followed him wherever he went to support his axiom ‘Change’.

Honestly and neutrally, he is very right in most of his versions and criticism on the national and provincial, both past and recent, rulers but something is still lacking in the success of his movement.

Long March/Sit-Ins – The Last Option
The long march/sit-ins should have been the last option after a series of public gatherings in different areas of the country to build up the momentum of the movement, so the plan was abruptly vague.

Focus on Bigger Cause, ‘Change’?
With long march/sit-ins initiated anyways, he should have not engaged in trivial issues like elections enquiry, Prime Minister’s resignation, or dissolving the government! Even now, why didn’t he then or even now focusing on the bigger cause “Justice”, the essence of his movement that single-handedly would break the shackles to bring “Change”?

Inviting PTI Tigers, Tigresses & Supporters Only
You have always only encouraged, cheered and backed PTI tigers, tigresses and supporters to come to join your movement and challenge this evil, corrupt system which suppresses poor. Shouldn’t you have talked to nation to come on one-point agenda “justice” as Just justice alone can do what all others together cannot!

Mismanagement or Sole-Management
It seemed either there is no professional dedicated and responsible management of PTI events who could be accounted for in the possible occurrence of any mishap and whoever wants to do whatever, do so or he take on the entire control in his hands. Does he deem that no one else besides himself is capable to handle gatherings?

He thus must depute and trust certain party leaders and share responsibilities and who else other than youngsters could accomplish this task better. Remember, cause is a mechanism of some essential operational elements and just an engine cannot drive a car to take you through to the destination.

PTI Flag, Why Not Pakistan’s
Lastly and most importantly … Why you are always wreathing PTI flag? You are on a mission, ‘A Mission for Pakistan’ so why isn’t this is the Pakistan Flag to transform the gesture that your shoulders to endure the nation’s burden?

This seemingly undisruptive tactic has badly blasted your noble cause as it conveys the message of party, group, and political sect. I wish you must have encouraged Pakistan Flag in wearing, covering and paintings that could have enticed all other party members, supporters and citizen across Pakistan to join you in! Hadn’t that been a greater change?

In spite of these all, there must be no doubt in his intentions, patriotism, and care for people, urge to deliver and thirst to nip social evils in the bud. He’s got everything in life the wealth, the honor and the fame … in fact a dream life… then what he is striving for?

There are millions who have been sacred all these but lost in the history but the one who realizes that Allah only is the eternal and His blessings are also a test/trial, keep serving His mankind and keep thanking Him.

Imran Khan I deduce is one of those, so I support him principally!
