Am no punner but a ruler !!!

Note: This post is from Feb 2010 but due to some editing mistake of mine, it has changed its date to recent. 




For last few days, news scene is hilariously happening. First we had, our MPA Ms. Samina Khawar Hayat who supported polygamy for a greater cause in Pakistan. According to her, Punjab government to amend the existing laws to allow men to marry for a second, third and fourth time without the consent of their first wife.

Mrs. Hayat thinks tendency of being infidel exists in men only?

But that’s not enough. Our jet black haired PM Yusuf Raza Gilani, gave an award winning statement after a woman gave birth in rickshaw (a three wheeler public transport) in Quetta city. The woman was on her way to hospital on an auto rickshaw when she faced VIP Movement of President Zardari. Mr. President was visiting the city for launching of some development projects, while leaving a common woman in labor pain because of VIP motorcade to pass.

PM Gilani thinks it’s no big deal if a woman is delivering a baby in rickshaw. While addressing in Islamabad a day later, said

“Bachay Too Jahaz Mai Bhee Paida Hotay Hain Rikshaw Main Ho Gaya To Kiya Howa?”

(We have seen many times babies born in Air Bus, now if it happens in Rikshaw what’s the big deal)

I got to save some screen shots to add flavor.

Somebody should give a wake-up call to Mr. Gilani that Quetta is a conservative city and it is certainly not ego boosting for a man to watch sister giving birth in a traffic jam. Neither it’s safe health wise, almost risking a life while giving out a life.

I think our rulers need to come out of their comfy zones to watch how their huge protocols add up to sufferings of commoners.

After the incident, every camera flash came over the new born and every mic directed to his relatives who went through public agony. But a senior columnist Mr. Hasan Nisar made a wise crack by advising the new mother to name his son Protocol Khan or Choudhry Protocol.
