Re: Media Tribe> News Urdu/English/Pic---FPCCI Indian High Commissioner

Sir,

The basic pre-requisite to development is law and order. That is the platform on which you build every thing else. 100% effort should be put to just ensure law and order which by the way is the primary responsibility of a State. Without providing this no State has the right to rule. 

The people in Pakistan are brilliant otherwise. There are just a few pre-requisites. Just do that as a matter of responsibility and see what the people achieve for Pakistan and themselves. There is great potential provided there are some basic conditions met not otherwise and level playing field given to one all. And that is not possible with the archaic feudalism intact. No dacoit (dakoo) can be caught and children cannot go to schools. If they do who will work as slaves on their lands?

It is all wishful thinking without any structural reforms real progress will come.
