Where were you in 2018?

Where were you in 2018?

This letter refers to the article ‘Ides of March’ (March 31, 2024). It seems as though little ever changes in Pakistan. We keep going down the same path and are not willing to learn any lesson from our past mistakes, no matter how bitter or painful. No one bothered to listen to former IHC judge Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui in 2018. The ruling PTI government did not stand with him and kept hounding their political adversaries and muzzling all voices raised for justice and dissent.

They delivered on almost none of their promises. Only uncertainty, confusion, confrontation and skyrocketing inflation. Now in opposition, the party shows no signs of addressing its sorry legacy and is hypocritically backing the latest claims of interference in the judiciary.
