Superior class of our society is representing bad image in front of media with very open heart. In our daily talk shows we can see people daily fighting, insulting and degrading each other just for lust of power. They allege on each other and use abusive language just in order to show that they are right. Our MNAs and MPAs are openly discussing their personal matters in front of media and by humiliating each other by which they just target general public to get their sympathy. But no one can ever understand why our so-called reputed class politicians are so illiterate and manner less and most important thing is they have no-tolerance. They can’t bear anything of their competitors in front of their eye and to make them disappear they are ready to go beyond any limits.
If we take the case of Punjab law Minister saying that “the utility of the Governor of the Province was as good as Toilet Paper after passage of 18th Amendment.” Whatever the provocation, this is just very bad taste and childish attitude of such so called reputed and well educated person of our state. The very governor and Rana Sanaullah keep aiming for one another can put streets urchins to Shame. Something that really irks me about our talk show is that they of being debates through which viewers become informed and then form their own opinions in which there is an abject lack of the decorum.
Nobody listen listens to anyone and the viewers end up having a poor opinion of both sides having to resort to the sleeping pills to sleep because of the prevailing choice of political leadership. Whenever we are in like in real life is reflected in our talk show. No Patients, no tolerance, no forehead what we do have in plenty are fake degrees, fake piety, fake morals with no self respect and irresistible urge to jump the line, wherever it may b. These daily diversions in the political arena take away attention from our real and burning issues.
As in normally the case in such public and line conversation on the electronic media the slip up from Fauzia Wahab in her defense of the president’s immunity was amazing to say the least! That the Khalifas of Islam were accountable to courts because they don’t have constitution. There is a quotable quote for times like these and it goes “please ensue mind is engaged before putting mouth in gear.”
Sometime as a viewer one is caught so off guard by the absurdity of a statement one hear from people that you have to call someone to cross check if what you heard is actually said Fauzia Wahab’s latest faux pass definitely fell into this category.
Another unintentional gaff I found ticklish was when Siddiqui Farark was holding forth on a channel just a few day before the federal Law Minister was to appear in supreme court. The person asked him his opinion about Babar Awan. “ He is a Professional Liar” came the answer. I did stop in my tracks at his candidness but when he repeated the words I realized that he was saying “ Lawyer” in very urdu accent which came out as a liar.
All the relief that the politicians are capable of giving us it seems, is merely comical. No concrete help seems to be forth- coming in the budgets that is frightfully, just around the corner and there is no measures in the pipeline to counter the day-to-day issue of the daily grind for the common man. The pressure just keep mounting and life continues to be challenge for citizen while the leadership of different political parties cross swords and mend fences at will. None of us, on the outside quite understand who the ally of whom really and whether it is for real and just for act.In our democratic system no one is answerable to anyone. Politicians are busy with politics that how to grab power from one and other, how to snatch rights from general public, how to influence public to commit suicide ( the only way they seek to shut mouth of people who rise their voice against inflation) and if media tries inquire or interrogate these politician, they start making lame excuses and in end when they see no way to get out from problems, the only solution they left with is to scream high, fancying that it might rupture eardrum of host and audience as well. But time has been changed. People are now become immure of these activities and they can just hope that Allah bless them.
Fake degrees people with fake morals are just busy in planning some new ways to deceive public. I can’t even imagine how a person can live without his self respect. It was well said in past that screaming lies aloud power to make it truth which has been well used by our politicians now-a- days. Our politicians are openly saying that “Corruption is our right” and still no one is here to question them about their illegal morals and use of power in states. In our parliament we can see our ‘WOMEN POLITICIANS” abusing each other and in our daily talk shows everyone is fighting, screaming which I never get to understand to proof what they are humiliating each other.
Talk shows become a reason of entertainment for many persons to relish themselves but only those persons who love to see cat and dog fights. Our talk shows end with no solution of any problem because no one is willing to resolve issue with peace. The real purpose of talk shows which was to give recommendations and solutions has been ended because of reason that no one listen to anyone. Who is need to changed? Many of the people says media get publicity because of these exchanges of words. In the end only media people have to answer about situation to public even if they are doing their duties only when they fulfill it. time should be changed and system should get up.
