The Pak Army top slot is under tremendous pressure from both ways- PM Imran khan's mere rhetoric & flawed policies from one side & PMLN's "vote ko izzat do" & "mujhy kion nikala" narrative from the other

The inflation- ridden public- at- large is asking a single question, i-e .what is the outcome of Pakistan Democratic Movement’s (PDM) country-wide protest rallies. The answer from different political corners varies. The only solid answer - depends upon the role of international and local establishment. But further question is whether establishment wants change right now or later on or after two more years. Is it time ripe enough or not?     

No doubt, former PM Mian Nawaz Sharif has again in limelight of political discourse by hitting too hard against the role of military in politics- of which PTI cabinet remembers labeled “a narrative of India”.

PM Khan’s reliance on being on the same page with the military does not mean that he must not come to some modus vivendi with the opposition. In politics, no one is reliable.

People are indeed burdened very heavily by high prices, reduced wages and not much light at the end of the tunnel. The government has promised on numerous occasions that it will crack down on all mafias responsible for the artificial price hike in essential items, just like the prime minister vowed to do yet again just a few days ago, but these promises have not translated into any sort of action in more than two years and people seem to have had enough of it.

The rallies of PDM has not exposed the PTI’s “Tabdeeli” under “Naya Pakistan” but has motivated majority of 212.2 million citizens of this country to raise voice against the selectors for their ‘proven’ wrong selection. But again the query remains the same, “when the selector(s) want(s) change?
