We must understand that only Supreme Court is not enough or in other words is not capable alone to bring THE CHANGE which we all desire and striving for.
The ENFORCEMENT OF LAW in a society is a three pronged process:
1. The Law Makers and The Law Readers ( The interpreters)
2. The Law Implementers
3. The Law abiders
1. THE LAW MAKERS AND THE LAW READERS
We can call this combinable, as Legislature. Administratively they are different. The Law makers is the Parliament and the Law readers (The interpreters) is the Judiciary and they work pole apart without influencing each other.
2. The Law Implementers
The judiciary is partly Law implementers. As they interpret the Law formulated by the Parliament and orders its implementation in situations when they are asked upon to give their decisions upon specific situations pertaining to public and private matters ranging from criminal to family issues.
The actual implementation of the decisions of the judiciary is carried out by the civilian administrative institute s and police.
3. The Law Abiders
These are those on whom the Law is effective and on whom it has to be implemented.
They include all from the members of the aforementioned two groups and the General public. The entire nation in other words
The Law Makers cannot formulate a law which excludes them from the implementation and accountability of the law.
NRO was one such law, and never in the history of the democratic world, ever such a law was formulated to protect corrupt law makers. Dictatorships and monarchies have acted in this fashion but never a democracy in the history of the world.
This is why I say, that, what our epic court have done today is historic and equivalent incident in the history of Pakistan to revert the effects of Fall of East Pakistan which portrayed Pakistan as a brutal, unjust and illogical nation. Today is the day when we feel very proud and honored, as part of the nation whose Judiciary is alive to the call of the nation and their conscious.
We must realize that how important it is for us to choose the correct persons to have a sound parliament. Parliament is every thing to a nation. It is the voice of the nation as well as the will of the nation. The present parliament has lost its moral grounds by not canceling the NRO when they had the opportunity. If they had done so the pride and honor which the judiciary has taken away from this moment would have been theirs. This is what makes us to realize that the present parliament, till, now has neither shown capability to become the voice of the nation nor has ability of executing the will of the people. But the judiciary has once again placed the ball in their court.
The Supreme court of Pakistan has asked for the first time in the history of mankind, to the government to re open all cases against the head of the state which obviously is the part of the parliament and by virtue of the powers bestowed to him constitutionally by the parliament are those of supreme commander of Pakistan armed forces as well. Now it is up to the parliament to open all cases against the head of state while he enjoys the powers to manipulate with the material, documental and personal witnesses or become the voice and will of the nation to dismantle the person form its seat of power replacing him with a genuine neutral person and letting its former head of state to plead the respective cases against him as a common citizen of Pakistan.
I believe the history is in making. And its very fortunate for us that we are part of the this history. It is even more fortunate for us that we are on the righteous path of the history. It becomes our national duty to pursue the cause of judiciary to save Pakistan‘s future. We must exert our maximum pressure on the parliament to become our voice and will. An d for this we must demonstrate peacefully every where and when ever we can. A similar movement is required as for the restoration of the judiciary and this time it will be a movement for restoration of Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s Pakistan whose foremost concerns as he laid down those in his speech to the first constituent assembly of Pakistan on 11 Aug 1947, were :
1. Sovereign, independent fully authoritative Parliament
2. Supremacy of Constitution
3. Rule of law
4. Eradication of corruption, nepotism, jobbery and black marketing from the society
5. Eradication of discrimination amongst citizens of the state of Pakistan on the basis of religion, ethnicity, caste creed and class.
If we look at the constitution of Pakistan which appears to be most commonly referred book, setting aside even Holy Quran, when used for references towards law to be implemented, it clearly reveal that how criminal minded our politicians have been and still are.
The immunity to the President of Pakistan which is so talked about this day was not self granted by any president himself. The parliament of Islamic Republic of Pakistan granted it. The same parliament mentioned in the constitution that no law making in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, contrary to the principles laid down in Quran and Sunnah will be done. And yet all political forces including the religious in 1973 granted immunity to the head of state of Islamic Republic of Pakistan which neither Quran nor sunnah allows. This only fact makes this constitution a dead horse and because of which constitution was never respected, humiliated by generals and brutally manipulated by who so ever found from the political elite who himself or herself capable.
ITS TIME THAT THE YOUTH REALIZES THIS FACT. ITS TIME THAT YOUTH MUST STAND UP TO THIS OCCASION AND DEMAND FROM THE PARLIAMENT of ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN TO BECOME THE VOICE AND WILL OF PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN ,BY , IMMEDIATELY DISPOSING OFF THE PRESENT HEAD OF STATE AND SUPREME COMMANDER OF PAKISTAN ARMED FORCES FOREGOING THE PARTY AFFILIATIONS . IT MUST BE MADE CLEAR TO THE PARLIAMENT THAT THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN JUSTIFY THEIR ELECTIONS AS THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN
THIS TIME IS NOT TO SAFEGUARD INDIVIDUAL HONOURS BUT TO SAFE GUARD THE HONORS OF PAKISTAN
I wish good luck to you all , God Bless you all and your courage,
The Glory of Pakistan is near
Remain steadfast to the cause
