Re-reading Pakistan

November 2022

I swear that I did not write this
The State of Pakistan is located in the south of Asia. Whatever its total land mass, it is now being occupied by housing societies.

The complete name of the country is Islamic Republic of Pakistan but it is devoid of both Islam and democracy.

There are two colours in the State flag. The green colour represents the maulvi majority while the white colour depicts the monopoly of the Establishment.

The State is based on three organized and one unorganized province.

The State of Pakistan became independent from British rule in 1947 but has to date not succeeded in shaking its slavery of the British masters.
To date, no attempt has succeeded in gaining freedom from this slavery.

Every government has made the people prisoners of the need for roti, kapra aur makan (food, clothes and housing).

The State of Pakistan is actually an accumulation of hundreds of states. Every state has its own laws, rules and regulations. If one state tries to meddle in affairs of another state, the latter is duly admonished.

For example, there is the State of Sindh, which is dominated by the Pakistan Peoples Party.

There are a number of maulvis who have formed their own states. When a state tries to interfere in their business they bring out the students of madarssahs on the streets and suffocate the State of Pakistan.

An interesting fact is that the State of Pakistan is a nuclear power as well.

Various organisations with the State are also states in their own right. No organization is in control of the State of Pakistan and there are no signs that it will be.

The largest department in the State of Pakistan is that of agriculture but Pakistan imports most of its wheat from other countries.

The defence of Pakistan is so strong that it can knock the daylights out of India which is six times larger than Pakistan. At the same time, the State of Pakistan is so weak that it cannot control four maulvis if they appear from somewhere.

The State’s traders rob the people to their heart’s content. But they would rather die than pay state taxes.

The state’s biggest industry is corruption which is making advances by leaps and bounds. The second biggest industry is religion while the third largest is politics.

Education, health and justice can also be counted among the larger industries.

The Constitution of the State is ‘Might is Right’. According to State Laws, the Law of the Jungle works in the country.

The State is based on lines where the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer.

Those who run the State of Pakistan love the country so much that they all have dual nationalities in other countries. As soon as they are deprived of power or their post, they rush to the other country where they have acquired nationality.

In this State, it is essential to take or give bribe; otherwise you will not succeed in getting your simplest work ever done.

A fraud or swindler may hurl as much abusive language against the State as possible but no one bothers.

In the State, personal security and a peaceful environment are only ensured for the political elite or other powerful people; the poor man only depends on God.

The State extends VIP protocol to big criminals while the small criminals receive punishments beyond their wrongdoing.

Justice, health, education and other facilities are provided to citizens according to their social status. .

If you are a citizen of the State of Pakistan, your greatness and courage is really worth appreciation.

Do not worry. After suffering from all these worldly hardships, you will be really rewarded in the hereafter. Insha Allah.
