THE MILITARY GOVERNMENTS of Pakistan

The father of the nation taught us principles of democracy. Each word that he uttered in his short life after establishment of Pakistan is a lesson for us. He showed us by his personal example what is meant by democracy. .What is meant by respecting the law and every functionary has a limited sphere of authority. If we perform our duties diligently no one can shirk his duties. The life of Quaid-e-Azam was in fact a disciplined and .regulated life. If he had ordered that his name should be inscribed through out the territory of Pakistan no body could have objected to that. But he did not accept even a salary from the government exchequer. He lived on his own hard-earned money through out his life. He regularly paid taxes on the assets purchased by his personal income. Concealing one?s bank balance from law tantamounted to treason. The registers showing his personal income and expenditure are today present as his relics and before breathing his last he donated all his property to those educational institutions where he himself got education. It is written in his will that from his property all the taxes due to the government should be paid.

Soon after his departure from this world we forgot his teachings. We all got engaged in a struggle to grab power and authority. In this struggle for power we trampled the democratic principles while sitting in democratic institutions and maltreated those who opposed the government and even gave them beating. The speaker of east Pakistan Assembly lost his life in such a scuffle It was not democratic attitude nor our father of the nation had showed us this path. Thus we lost our way and in this process lost track of our destination.

My dear father of the nation Quaid-e-Azam was getting upset after listening all this from me. He asked me, ?Do you know where the mistake was made and who made it.?. I said,? Father, mistake was not made by a single individual. It seems that those whom you trained for this purpose were few and they became helpless in this tug of war for power..? On this the father of the nation said, ?This is partially true. But those who were my compatriots were not weak people. If they had stuck to their principled stand in my name the people of Pakistan would not have left them alone. Those were the people who did not understand English language and would say on listening to my speeches that we do not know English language but we know that whatever this man says is true.? If my comrades my trained compatriots had not given up my ways and my path the situation would have been different today. People even today talk of priciples and rules and regulations. People listen to those who talk truth. They believe them. . The father of the nation was very upset.. His big forehead was glittering with perspiration. He said to me, ? Humayun ! You are so young. Whom I should mention before you. All these names are preserved in annals of history. The people of Pakistan are very clever. They can understand the hints.

The father was right. I did not deem it fit to bother him further and advising him to take rest I cam in my study. Now I was thinking that if an ordinary citizen like me could get guidance from Quaid-e-Azam in respect of my country why could not our leaders do that. After Quaid?s death it would have been better if instead of a single man occupying his chair a council of elders had been constituted which could decide the matters of the state after thorough deliberation. That was only possible if we had stuck to Quaid?s principles. But due to the lawlessness , financial bungling and political wrangling perpetuated by them on 8th October 1958 the then president Iskandar Mirza and Commander in Chief of the Pakistan Army General Ayub Khan enforced martial law in the country and turned the politicians out of the corridors of power. Ayub Khan also exploited Quaid?s name. Not only that he openly used Quaid?s name he discarded parliamentary democracy in favour of presidential system in the name of Quaid-e-Azam. For eleven years Ayub Khan who got himself elevated from general to field marshal and then the president remained in power.. He disqualified the old politicians from taking part in active politics and tried to run the country through the members of the local bodies named as basic democrats. The result was that the concept of national consciousness and Pakistani nationalism went on weakening. In place of Pakistani nationalism the linguistic, ethnic and regional prejudices strengthened. During the military dictatorship of Ayub Khan industrial progress did take place but during this period provincial prejudices became stronger. The politicians from NWFP, Baluchistan and Sind remained busy in propagating against Punjab and asking for dismemberment of One Unit. There already existed hatred against Urdu speaking people in East Pakistan. Dubbing very West Pakistani as Punjabi they started a campaign against them. They considered Ayub Khan and Azam Khan as Punjabis. In their eyes Choudhry Khaliquz Zaman, an Urdu speaking migrant from UP (India) and all those who were right hand men of Ayub Khan were Punjabis. During Ayub Khan;s time Pakistani nationalism weakened a lot. When he departed from the corridors of power in place of Quaid?s devoted compatriots and those who cared for Pakistan second rate politicians appeared on the political scene. For them Pakistani nationalism was of no value. They indulged in politics of provincial. The result was that regional prejudice deepened.

While leaving Ayub Khan passed the reins of government to General Yahya Khan who enforced a new martial law in the country. He abrogated the constitution and created a new state of confusion in the country. In the name of political leniency he gave full freedom to politicians to propagate against national interest. Thus the provincially motivated politicians came forward and they blamed the other provinces for usurping their rights. The most vocal of them was Mujibur Rehman of East Pakistan who started a regular movement of hatred against Punjab and spent all his energy to prove that Punjab has expropriated ets usurped all resources of the country.. Although this was not true. At that time if someone had put the same blame on East Pakistan it could be easily proved. Because both the provinces had similar economy based on agriculture and if there were three factories in East Pakistan Punjab had one. In all this process Sind benefited most where without proper planning seventy percent of Industry was installed in Karachi. The right thong would have been that the industry should have been installed throughout the country. .If they wanted to concentrate industry at one place then it was Baluchistan because industries could be set up by the Baluchistan coast which would result in progress of this less populated and backward area. This would not have given rise to any expansion of population problem as happened in thickly populated Karachi.

The result of the politics of hatred was that Pakistan broke into two parts in 1971. What was the real bone of contention between the two parts of Pakistan that is West and East Pakistan? When this question crept up in my mind I thought of contacting the father of the nation again to find out what was the real cause of break-up of original Pakistan. Both the father and mother of nation received me and welcoming my question they allowed me to ask them what ever I wanted to ask. A little scared I asked them that if they had declared both Urdu and Bengali as national languages and English as language of liaison then there might not have been a wave of hatred in East Pakistan which later on became an anti-Pakistan movement.. On listening to my question I observed signs of discomfiture on the face of mother of the nation but Quaid-e-Azam remained calm. He listened to the question very patiently and said,? Pakistan consisted of both West and East Pakistan. The politicians and national leaders of Pakistan did not try to make Pakistanis as one nation. The question put before me was only this that whether Urdu or English should be the national language of Pakistan I supported Urdu but Pakistani politicians, members of provincial and national assemblies could have added Bengali to this. The question is not this that I only declared Urdu as national language. The question whether even after more than fifty years have we been able to create a national concept in Pakistan.? The basis of my demand for Pakistan was that Muslims are a single nation. After the establishment of Pakistan my philosophy was that Muslims are a single nation. Bengalis, Punjabis, Pathans, Sindhis, and Baluchs all are one nation. I also added to this that all non-Muslims living in Pakistan are also part of this single nation. Was this philosophy further practised? Nations are formed in this manner. I would have accomplished this task but I did not remain alive and when my sister came forward to do this you got her defeated in election against Ayub Khan. Okay when I was not there you did not make my sister as your leader then why do you complain to me?

Quaid-eAzam gave this reply with great patience and calmness. I was ashamedly looking at his sad face on which I could see the marks of unhappiness and frustration. I felt lot of shame because I bothered the father to answer a question for which he had no fault. He rather gave us a perfect philosophy to finish such differences. But unfortunately we neither understood it nor we practised it. Bowing before them I sought their permission to leave. The father of the nation told me very kindly,? Humayun! Whenever you have any confusion you can contact me. Rather tell every Pakistani that whenever he feels difficulty he should turn to me. Even after my death I am for Pakistan and its people.?

This was my second meeting with the father. I gave a thought to father?s philosophy and found out that there are 98 percent Muslims among 140 million Pakistanis. They believe in one God, one prophet(PBUH and are a part of single nation but still we are divided into Punjabis, pathans , Sindhis, Muhajirs and Baluchis and on the other hand our enemy India consists of Sikhs, Muslims, Christians, Low castes, Bhudhists and people belonging to various religions who do not understand each other?s language and still raise the slogans of ?We are one? day and night. Although there is no unity in them. Mizo?s are not from among them. Naxalites are not one of them. Sikhs are different from them. Budhists and people belonging to other religions are also different from them High caste Hindus do not like to even look at low caste Shudars. If they name a Muslim even their tongue becomes apostate. Even then there is noise of ?we are one nation ? in India. After all what is this?

Bengalis are our Muslim brothers but we did not consider them our brothers. On the other hand Hindus of West Bengal made them believe that they were not a nation as Muslims but can become a nation as Bengalis. This is our fault. This is the fault of our clergy who did not allow Pakistani and Muslim nationalism to develop. If we had acted upon the philosophy of Quaid-e-Azam then Bengalis would have accepted Pakistani nationality and would have stood by us. Even now we can make a strong federation of the four provinces of West Pakistan on the basis of Pakistani nationalism. But on the Pakistani Radio, Television and national media there is emphasis on Pakistani federation but no mention of Pakistani nationalism. East and West Germany can reunite on the basis of nationalism. Both the parts of Vietnam can reunite. They can consider bringing together North and South Korea on the basis of nationalis then why we are afraid from the concept of nationalism in Pakistan. We can make the Islamic basis of love and unity as the philosophy of Pakistani nationalism and we should not shun it. The tragedy of the fall of Dacca took place during the period of Yahya Khan. This was the biggest tragedy to inflict in the history of Islam after the fall of Cordoba. I was very young at that time. But I remember that on listening this tragic news my father and grand father cried like children. I realised it after many years that what a great tragedy had happened to Pakistan.

Talking about this tragedy that why it happened. What were its reasons? When were the foundations of this tragedy laid? If Bengla Desh was to be established then why in 1947 two separate countries of Pakistan and Bangla Desh were not established. The younger generation is searching for the answers to these questions and when they do not get the answer then they talk of Sindhu Desh, Pakhtunistan or Serakilistan. At present some important political personalities and army commanders of the time of dismemberment are still alive. If the people in authority want a detailed investigative report can be prepared on this tragedy which will be very useful for our future generations and the historians interested in the history of Pakistan. The biggest advantage shall be that people will stop raising the question that Pakistan could not fulfil its objectives as a state or .we as a nation could not achieve those objectives for which Pakistan was created. Through this we can explain the present status of the two nation theory after the dismemberment of Pakistan. Through this report we can also explain that if Pakistan had not been turned into a religious state and remained secular country of Muslims then what would have been its state of affairs. But this would require long research and investigation. As a nation we must undertake this work. This is the debt of history on Pakistani nation. General Yahya?s government fell on 22nd December 1971 that is a week after the fall of Dacca which happened on 16th December. The army generals dismissed Yahya Khan and appointed the parliamentary leader of West Pakistan Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto as the President and Chief Martial Law Administrator of West Pakistan. It is said about Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto that he was an intelligent and shrewd political leader.. He started with the basic economic problem of Food, Clothing and Housing which is the basic concern of the majority of population and made it an issue for elections. As against this Mujibur Rehman raised the bogey of exploitation of East Pakistan resources and the prosperity of Punjab . Looking objectively Bhutto?s attitude was positive as he had given a progressive political programme against the privileged class and for the betterment of common man. On the other hand the people of East Pakistan were brought on one paltform on the basis of anegative slogan for political confrontation. It can therefore be stated that as against Mujib Bhutto was working on a Pakistani political programme.

In spite of his intelligence and knowledge Bhutto could not give a positive programme to the people of East Pakistan at the time adversity. The reason could be traced to the alignments between political leaders during the previous military regimes. That might have been the reason that Bhutto with in spite of all his capabilities could not become a national leader rather became a leader of West Pakistan only. He would have attained greater height as a leader if he had impressed the people of East Pakistan with his socio-economic program. It appears that by that time decision already That is the reason why Bhuttop did not deem it necessary to draw the attention of East Pakistanis. Neither he tried to forge any alliance with the anti-Mujib forces to win the election East Pakistan or at least contest elections there. This confirms the doubt that before 1970 elections the invisible forces had struck a deal to undo the unity between East and West Pakistan. Otherwise Maulana Abdul Hamid Khan Bhashani was trying to forge an alliance between the politicians of both the wings before the elections. But he was beaten at Sahiwal Railway Station. His beard was pulled and in Lahore a scandal was circulated and shameful allegations were made against him forcing him to say good bye to West Pakistanis. It must be remembered that he tried hard for postponement of 1970 elections but no one supported him and it was Maulana Bhashani who was the first to blame Mujibur Rehman for conspiring to establish Bangladesh but the political leaders and people in authority in Pakistan did not take any notice.

With all this background Mr Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto became an important and active leader of West Pakistan. The allegation by his opponents that he also played a role in establishing Bangladesh will always remain against him.The Hamoodur Rehman Commission?s report that he ordered in connection with the fall of Dacca had very limited scope. And then this report was not published and now it is being said that the report has been lost. His daughter Benazir Bhutto twice became the prime minister but she made no headway in this direction nor did she try to remove this stigma from her father?s name. This makes the matter more mysterious and dangerous.

Some government in Pakistan should take the positive step of getting a report prepared on the fall of Dacca to find out why this country broke into two parts. Quaid-e-Azam reply to this is that we were successful in making one country but could not make one nation. This is the root cause of this tragedy. After philosophical explanation we should look into the practical aspect of the matter and chalk out a workable plan to keep the four units of the federation together.

In my opinion Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto tried to run Pakistan on his own ideas rather than the principles of the founder of Pakistan.
Father of the nation said ?Faith?
Bhutto said ?Islam is our deen?
Father of the nation said ?Unity?
Bhutto said ?Democracy is our polity?
Father of the nation said ?discipline?
Bhutto said ?Socialism is our economy?.

The three principles of the father of the nation were based on Islam for a strong faith, unity and strong discipline to provide a spiritual, physical and political base. But Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto gave a different colour to these principles for his political defence first tried to satisfy the religious circles by saying Islam is our deen although he did not succeed in satisfying them. Then he tried to use the slogan of democracy is our politics to forge relations with other countries of the world. The biggest tool of Bhutto was socialism is our economic system by which he made the economically depressed classes as his followers and not knowing what socialism stood for they accepted it in simple terms that is Bread, Clothing and Housin. People voted for Bhutto in the name of Bread, Clothing and Housing. Because they had firm belief that if the stomach was empty and there were no clothes to wear and no house to live in then every thing was false. But by giving a false bait Bhutto started the politics of making false promises and giving impracticable programs. To complete his agenda he promised to nationalise industries, banks and important business houses. The result was that many units of our fledgling industry were nationalised and handed over to the party leaders and favourite workers who ate away these industries in no time like termite. Thus this new political structure at its outset devoured foundations of Pakistan?s industry and economy. Banks became bankrupt and industries presented a deserted look. This stage was not ripe for nationalising industry. The industries set up in Pakistan were catering for the common consumer goods. The basic industries were lacking in Pakistan like Pakistan Steel Mills or Heavy mechanical Complex Taxila which operates under military supervision. Pakistan was still preparing for setting the basis of Industry in Pakistan, It still required at least ten years of patronage so that its industrial base expanded and the entrepreneurs needed encouragement. The small industry had gradually turned into big industry. But even small rice husking mills, cotton ginning factories and units comprising five to ten looms fell victims to the so-called socialist revolution of Bhutto. Later on from the results it was concluded that the nationalisation by Bhutto was in fact a step in the direction of totally ruining the the industry and economy of the country. The slogan of Bread, Clothing and Housing was very powerful and the people conceded lot of power and authority to Bhutto accepting this slogan but in return Bhutto gave only hunger , poverty and false promises. He established a system which was apparently a parliamentary democratic system but in reality his control on parliament was so strong that he converted it into a rubber stamp for himself.

The slogan of Bread, Clothing and Housing was very powerful and the people conceded lot of power and authority to Bhutto accepting this slogan but in return Bhutto gave only hunger , poverty and false promises. He established a system which was apparently a parliamentary democratic system but in reality his control on parliament was so strong that he converted it into a rubber stamp for himself. In order to intimidate people by baton charging and shooting he established FSF the federal security force an armed police force. He was such a leader who except for getting votes from the people did not want to either take any work from the people nor he had any sympathy for them. Zulifiqar Ali Bhutto was a feudal and an arrogant person. He framed the constitution of Pakistan which is generally known as 1973 constitution but with in the first three to four months made so many amendments to it that the whole constitution got defaced. Through out the period he was in power the emergency remained enforced in Pakistan. The human rights remained suspended. The word democracy is very well-known in Pakistan but the democracy that Abraham Lincoln defined was never practised in Pakistan. Rather the rulers always derived different meanings from democracy. Whenever there are general elections in Pakistan only feudals, landlords, capitalists, industrialists and smugglers jump into the arena to contest elections. And now they have been joined by Klashnikov bearing clergymen. They spend millions of rupees during election campaign on tents and election offices where hundreds of people eat and make merry during that time. Big coloured posters and big newspapers advertisements are flashed. The common man does not get a single penny out of this money. This all money is consumed by proclaimed offenders or killers of the area and try to snatch away the votes of opponents by coercion and intimidation. Some agent of the contestant takes the voters to the polling stations in buses or wagons and people vote for the same candidate under pressure because in elections the candidates generally come from the same section of society. No modest and gentle person can contest election. So such people enter assemblies who are involved in or sentenced for murder, dacoity, abduction, smuggling and kidnapping for ransom. The majority of people in late Bhutto?s assembly belonged to this category and majority of such people were present in the assemblies that preceded or followed Bhutto?s assembly.

What ever people understood from socialism during Bhutto period was not socialism. Rather people came to know later that it was Bhuttoism. There was a crisis of character and morality that destroyed the traditional values of civility, culture and gentleness. People today abuse socialism but that was not socialism. Today people talk of restoring democracy The whole world is after Gene. Musharraf to restore democracy and he is trying to explain to the world that the system of government which they were mistaking for democracy was not democracy but dictatorship of a group of politicians in which :
1- A family has usurped the wealth of the whole country and their assets expanded so much that one could not count them. .Thus in no time they turned themselves in to millionaires and then billionaires in dollar currency ((These days the dollar?s value is more than 50 rupees)
2- The educated people with degrees of Masters in arts and science, engineers, doctors, scientists are roaming in the country carrying their degree testimonials in their hands and can not find a job because for that recommendation and bribe is required.
3- A person who is the prime minister of the country is neither answerable to the parliament nor before any accountability bureau. The members of his family have occupied key positions in the government and they only post the people belonging to their family or clan on important positions.
4- There is no discipline in the country and no one has sense of security.
5- Thieves and robbers are freely roaming about in the country and no one can dare to complain against them.
6- Instead of maintaining law and order in the country the police was playing in the hands of those who trample the law because they have come to own fabulous amounts of wealth.
7- The unemployment was compounded by the upwards spiral of prices. Every manufacturer himself fixes the prices of his commodities and increases it whenever he likes. During the last five years a thing costing 100 rupees shot up to 500 rupees but there was no change in the income and salaries of the people and it remains the same that it was twenty years ago.
8- After obtaining loans tuning to 36 billion dollars from the international financial institutions the politicians and their relative industrialists have usurped this loan. The process of development has not been initiated in the country.
9- Politicians, industrialist, capitalists, feudals and landlords do not pay any tax. Even they do not pay their telephone and electricity bills. That is the reason that the hard pressed common man has to pay the taxes instead. For instance the billionaire(in dollars) prime minister of Pakistan paid only 447 rupees tax three years ago.

Thus the military chief executive of Pakistan General Parvez Musharraf when placed this factual position before those countries who consider themselves as the champions of democracy in the world they were flabbergasted. What sort of democracy is this? That is the reason why European Union and Russia agreed to reschedule our debts. Japan is also one of those kind countries who felt that people of Pakistan are being robbed and ruined by their compatriot politicians. This is the report of International Financial Institutions that important politicians, industrialists, important members of bureaucracy, capitalists and feudals have after successively coming into power stashed 250 million dollars in the banks of Switzerland, England, France, and America and assets of an equal value have been kept abroad by this privileged class of Pakistan. This all wealth has been taken out of Pakistan after embezzling it by illegitimate methods.

General Musharraf says that army is not against democracy rather the army likes the democracy more. Unfortunately the democracy has been given different meaning in Pakistan but they have come with the determination to clean the democratic system of nepotism and selfishness at the top and that is why people have welcomed them. Before restoring democracy in the country it is imperative to understand its true meaning. In Pakistan the wealthy politicians have made the education so expensive that a common man can not bear the expenses of his children?s education. The College and University education has gone so expensive that one who is earning average income can not bear it. That is the reason that intelligent students who are desirous of education remain uneducated. Pakistan is a developing country. The basic and consumer industry was present here but America and other international financial institutions are opposing small industry. They want that Pakistan should give up its industrial system and the country should be converted into a market for goods manufactured by other countries of the world. So the situation in the country is such that:
1- The electricity tariff has been increased so much that it is not possible to run the industry.
2- The processing of raw materials is so much taxed here that industrialists do not think of setting up industries.
3- With deception and bribery the industrialists have robbed the banks.

1- Due to these reasons the common citizens of Pakistan have turned against those people who have usurped the financial resources and power. But they have failed in every attempt to get rid of them. These are the people who have deceived the common man in the name of both socialism and Islam and the common man was looted in the name of democracy as well. The present military administration wants to reform the political system and to change the present system where the power is concentrated in the hands of a single segment of society. The people also want this that the country should have such a system of politics and governance that no segment can loot the common man with emotional slogans. The wealth of Pakistan should only be spent on the people and the motherland.
