After disastrous results in the recently held by-elections in Punjab, the Pakistan People’s Party it seems has vanished in a puff of smoke — at least from the political landscape of Punjab which was once its stronghold. Dominating the country’s politics for nearly four decades, its disgraceful exit is hard to swallow. For diehard PPP workers, this is nothing less than a nightmare. They are bewildered, confounded and dazed, particularly at the apathy of the top party leadership towards this unchecked downfall.
A revival of the party in the future is a tough guess and one can safely conclude that it is all over for the PPP’s way of politics. Similarly, the PML-N has been in power for the last one decade in Punjab. The party never shied away from boasting about its performance in the nerve centre of the country’s politics but the close contest in NA-122 and the PTI’s win in the provincial assembly seat have shattered the myth of the PML-N’s invincibility in Punjab.
