The verdict of July 28 of the apex court that disqualified Nawaz Sharif was backed by the articles 62 and 63 of the constitution. These articles were incorporated by a dictator for his vested interests. These articles are a new version of Article 58(2)(b) and they cannot practically eradicate the menace of corruption from the country unless they are implemented across the board and are applicable to all institution of the country.
Following the disqualification of Nawaz Sharif, others leaders also likely to get a taste of these articles. All future prime ministers, parliamentarians will have no other choice except to act like rubber stamps or they must be ready to face the fate of Nawaz Sharif. Democracy was not encouraged in the past and in the present. It would certainly not be encouraged in future under the guise of articles 62 and 63 of the constitution.
