Awami Ameer Wazir

My differences with the JI apart, I must admire its present Ameer  who happens to be also the  Senior Minister (Wazir) of the KPK government - Mr. Siraj ul Haq -  as a true Awami Leader.  He is using an Air Conditioner neither in his office nor in his official residence. He has resolved not to do so till the ordinary man in the street is ridden of the curse of load shedding.  Well done, Sir, and I salute you for your such Awaam Dosti in the real letter and spirit.

At the same time, how I wish, our Sharifs, Bhuttos, Wali Khanis, Hoties, Imrans, Altafs,  Makhdooms, Sardars, Peers, Generals, Bureaucrats, Judges,  Parliamentarians, Ministers, Governors and of course the President of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan would also emulate the noble example set by the Ameer JI?!  It will not only give them the real taste  of the load shedding in the scorching summer months but would also goad them to stamp out the load shedding at the soonest possible.
