Sanctity of Vote

 

The way the sanctity of the secret ballot for the Presidential Election was violated by the honourable members of the NWF Provincial Assembly was, to say the least, a conduct highly unbecoming the ones calling themselves the legislators . What was still more intriguing was that some of the honourable members of great political standing and known to be the stalwarts of high principles and the followers of Bacha Khan the great not only behaved so spitefully peevishly throwing all caution and morals to the winds but also disgraced the  political ethics and morality by such an open and blatant display of showing the "˜crosses' marked by them on their ballot papers to the supervising PPP Ministers seated strategically at oblique wings at close  quarters to the Booth No.1. Why was a certification needed and for what consideration from such trusted "˜monitoring agents'? The pathetic body language with the shame writ large over their faces and the general unsteady carriage of the honourable MPAs displayed their extremely agonising helplessness, evoking great compassion for the poor souls from the TV viewers. One was really amazed and astounded to witness such an unbelievable spectacle and earnestly wanted to know the compulsion(s) forcing the honourable member for behaving in such an undignified manner of denuding themselves of all self respect. One hopes the 'ewards' were really worth selling their conscience so openly and that too on one of the most august floors that this nation can boast of. Some honourable members on some sacred floor of some  august house for strengthening some institutions for some democracy in Pakistan!!!
