The people who are not committed to any political party have little reasons to be biased and are still looking for a better alternative to what we have had over the last 40 years. These people are not stuck in the past with General Zia or Father of the Nation but are more concerned about the current progress of the economy, people's security etc. Which ever political party proposes a clear plan for the future rather than rhetoric from the past will win the vote of these people.

That party is also the problem. We have abdicated and left the playing fields to the goons and goondas. We sit at home and wait for the arrival of the Messiah and lead us out of this morass. Let's face it - it's not going to happen. Mixing metaphors - we have to get off the fence and draw our line in sand and tell them - enough, no more. To a certain extent, the Shahbagh movement gives hope - that the spirit has not yet been extinguished.
