    Alvi sahib,

    Please keep us posted on when this piece is also removed from the Art Gallery as the tolerance level of the 65 year old General is very very low now… he is fed up of all the ignorant “awam – masses” who do not understand his wonderful ideas of enlightened moderation.

    They are being taught by the General great lessons; let’s see how quickly these dirty civilians understand what is best for them…as envisioned by the General in the form of puppet assembly, puppet government and now puppet courts.

  2. Read my article on Lotay on http://www.mypakistan.com/?p=707
    I just said we need a way to dicourage lotacracy in next election and asked everybody to dump these lotas forever.

    Alvi Saheb,

    Ye Lotay Be-rang kiun hein, normaly lotay har
    rang kay hotain hein, zara baat genuin hoti.

    Kia inka khoon safaid ho gaya hay, kia ye surkh thay ?

    Actually the term lota is from “be-paandey ka lota” which means it has no base and rolls from place to place. but these lotas have bases.
    creative art piece but just pointing a symbolic error.

    HERE IS WHAT SHOULD BE THE NEXT MOVE:
    ALL CIVIL SERVANTS SHOULD BE INVITED TO STAND UP AGAINST THE DICTATOR. IN PARTICULAR POLICE, JUDICIAL STAFF, MEGISTRATE ETC.

    THE POLITICAL PARTIES SHOULD MAKE A JOINT ANNOUNCEMENT AS FOLLOWS”

    ALL THOSE CIVIL SERVANTS WHO WILL CUT THEMSELVES OFF FROM THE RULING PARTY (LIKE THE JUDGES OF SUPREME AND HIGH COURTS) WILL NOT ONLY BE GIVEN AMNESTY BUT REWARDED BY THE NEXT GOVT.

    INFACT THIS ANNOUNCEMENT SHOULD BE MADE
    BY VARIOUS GROUPS OF CIVIL SOCIETY INCLUDING LAWYERS FORUM, HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS, OTHERngo ETC.
