15-year-old allegedly run over by employer after workplace dispute in Multan

What is your alternate? If it is the current system, then you should not be allowed to participate in these discussions. You are an advocate of status quo and consider some how Pakistanis deserve to be punished this way.

Status quo is Jirga and Panchayat.

The necessary DNA required for nations to produce lawgivers is non existent in Pakistani society.

Speaking to the broader set of societal issues, I don't think there is one member here who is a supporter of the status quo with the judiciary, policing, and other social aspects. The difference of opinion is whether we should have evolutionary changes (which will face progression and regression with obstacles that either emerge due to external factors or created by those with vested interests) or revolutionary.

Thanks to the indifference of Pakistani qoum and their great ability to just accept and adapt, chances of a revolution are very minute to none. Where millions just think of how to make ends meet, the luxury to think and plan a revolution is non existent, there is no motivation as the worry to earn bread and butter for ones family remains a hard task.

The correct saying "Jaisa Raja waisi Awam" fits perfectly for Pakistanis. As long as we remain stuck in delusions of democracy and how great that system is, we will stay where we are. It will take one honest leader with absolute authority to start correcting the course and another one to carry on with the plan and policies.

My problem is one sided criticism of traditional way of deciding matters and calling state provided venue a better option, which it is not. Heck the state couldn't even prosecute the known proven terrorists. What should people do where state provided facilities are non existent or the state has no writ?

Is it the fault of the society? Did they ever have a say in matters of state? Or were they ever provided opportunities and environment to nourish that DNA?

Okay, they are backward for insisting to keep the jirga and panchayat, but where is the state's alternative and will to replace it with something better?
