Election in Karachi 2013

It was a quite morning in Karachi 11 May 2013, election day the media was chanting people to come out of their homes and vote, but outside the situation was totally different: On the same day I get out of my home and voted for my party but I feel extreme fear becasue the whole city was shut and very few people were outside there homes, this was strange as this situation will certainly will make a very worse condition for that person who is going out to the polling with a positive mind. 

But despite that the condition of the city was favorable for criminal minds and those who are trying to win the elections by unfair means, but this situation is not advisable for positive people. 

Polling started and there are many areas like NA-253 and NA-250 where polling was not started after 3 to 4 hours have been passed this was reported by media. At NA-253, the polling agents were harrased at the Govt. Income Tax building where the Namaloom Afrad were wandering with their party badges on their shirts (which were not allowed already), it has been also reported that many people other than polling agents were inducted into the polling station to carry out their illegal activities. 

Army personnel were missing from the scene, however in some areas army was deployed but at many polling station army as well as no rangers person was present. 

Addressing a press conference in Karachi, JI ameer Munawar Hassan alleged that massive rigging was taking place in the two cities.

The party also announced of staging a sit-in (dharna) outside the office of the Election Commission’s at 5pm the election day.

“Rigging is taking place at every polling station,” said a party leader, adding that a Jamat Islami worker Rao Mujahid was kidnapped around two hours ago from NA-256 constituency and still remains missing. “Three other boys were beaten up and injured,” 

The JI chief held the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) responsible for all alleged rigging taking place in the two cities. “All those forces who backed the MQM did not do Pakistan a favour. They dug a grave against Pakistan and democracy,” he said.

“We want to tell those forces: don’t take side with terrorists only for a few votes,” he added.

Jamat Islami also announed a strike on May 13 2013 in protest of the rigging which was done in Karachi.

A Story on Conflict Management

I received a call from Sarfaraz Butt my division head this morning, he was informing me about one of my subordinate that he is going to transfer him to the other sales team.

He was “informing” not “asking”!

I replied, “Okay!” but inside I was exploding with anger. This is the third time in the current session, that Butt has shifted one of my trained personnel from my team for someone else to adopt it. I am not a fool, to spend several months in training my team member and others will ripe the fruits.  This was certainly a big distress for me, how can Butt taking away my best man one by one, and still question on my performance in monthly target meetings, “This is it, I cant bear this anymore!” I thought in my mind.

Later I cooled up my mind but still thinking what can be done in this way, I know all my men are being transferred to the sales team of Ahmed Ali, one of the team leaders in our company, my internal competitor as well. Just because of his good relations with Butt and his better communication techniques he is able to take away my boys. I thought this is the time I should personally approach to Ahmed and talk on the issue.

I dialed his number, as I waited for the beep I thought that when he will receive my call he will be ashamed of what he did, etc. “Hey! Its Imran”, I started the conversation, readily coming to the topic, I said, “Ahmed! You are taking all my expert men one by one, don’t you think this is causing problem for me to perform my duties?” “Pardon me! What are you talking about dear?” Ahmed said in an innocent tone. Here we got a different situation, this innocent guy didn’t even aware of what trouble he is causing me. Is the divisional head is transferring all men on his own will? I was confused a bit. I explain him about all the situation, how in the same session I am losing my third men, which is being shifted to his team by the orders of the divisional head, while my team now contain only some new entrants, which are not capable of bringing such a massive business, yet I still fear if I trained one more, it might be shifted to Ahmed’s team again.

I discussed the whole situation with Ahmed, and hopefully he understood, he said, “Imran! I didn’t know that how much trouble I caused you, I just demanded some experienced sales persons from Sarfaraz, I thought he might convinced you before taking your boys, but we can both formulate something which is beneficial for each other”. This was the best part, at least he understand and offering his support in the issue.

“So at what time tomorrow you will be available?” I asked Ahmed, “Let me see my calendar.. hmmm.. 4:00 pm okay for you?” Ahmed said in a questioning tone

“It will be awesome.” I am relaxed somehow.

The next day on the planned time we met, together we did a brain storming session and formulate some points, and agreed to follow on it:

1. We are working for the same organization, we should think about the benefit of organization as a whole rather than just thinking about the personal benefit or just team.
2. Before taking a member from other team, first the team leader will be convinced
3. If the team leader think that this is OKAY, he will pass the approval to the division head
4. If it is not suitable for the team leader, and one team is having loss in shifting his personnel, both the teams respect this decision and retreat
5. No one will approach the division head on it own on the subject of shifting of employees

“Ahmed! In our knowledge the points we agreed are awesome, but if they create some more issues, will you take out some time to review them together?” I asked.

“Why not Imran, of course, I will do whatever it takes for the benefit of the organization”

“I think our meeting is successful” I cheerfully shook hand with Ahmed

“Obviously! In case of any problem, don’t ever hesitate to approach me”. He pressed my hand with anticipation.

جب کسی بھی قوم کے افراد ذاتی مفاد کو قومی مفاد پر ترجیح دینا شروع کر دیں تو اس طرح کے سانحات رونما ہونا یقینی ہو جاتا ہے

Elections 1970,

Awami League got 160 out of 300 seats become a majority party

PPP got 81 seats

Awami league won 0 seats from West Pakistan

same like PPP won 0 seats from East Pakistan

Awami league beocme the largest party of East Pak, but PPP only become a party of Sindh & Punjab

ANP, JUI, JI won from NWFP (now KPK)

General Yahya refused to transfer power to the majority party

India started to influence in Bangladesh, Indian literature was spread, Mukti Bahni was formed, Bangalis were already against the actions of Govt, Mukti Bahni exploited the youth

Terrorism activities from Mukti Bahni

resulted in army operation in Bangal

more wood in the fire

Bhutto's slogan "Idher hum, Udher tum"

Patriotic Pakistani joined to form Al Badr started armed resistance against Mukti Bahni

but Pakistan army lost the war

Al Badr stopped its struggle and dissolved

Patriotics were continued to be killed by the hands of Mukti Bahni 

Bodies all over the roads, Jamat Islami workers perform namaz e janaza, kafan, and bury them with respect

Pakistan was broken, India won, years passed, we can se JI-Bangladesh workers are still being oppressed just for they were with Pakistan! the Pakistan of Quaid e Azam & Iqbal.

While the real responsible are still on the throne of Pakistan.
