Frankly speaking, we all know that provoking military and political instability, regional, and other conflicts is a helpful means of distracting the public from growing domestic social and economic problems in certain countries”. Such attempts cannot be ruled out, unfortunately.Vladimir putin. Pakistan has become politically unstable since partition, but some eminent leaders have recovered the government overall. In living memory, we have seen many rivalries for leadership. The history itself shows chaotic political conditions, like after the 2013 election in which Nawaz Sharif became the Prime Minister of Pakistan. He pushed democracy to long-lasting fallout. Ultimately, the Nawaz Sharif regime was dismissed in 2017, given the fact that he was not sincere to the nation. Pakistan has become more vulnerable after the opposition joined hands and submitted a no-confidence motion against Imran Khan.He was the first prime minister of Pakistan who was ousted by a no-confidence vote. Now the opposition blamed Khan’s leadership for the economic crisis, but the main reason was Khan had lost the support of the Pakistan Army. Now Imran khan started a protest march. This political instability brought many hurdles to the government, such as finished national integrity, increasing terrorism and extremism, suffering of education institutions, declining the health political environment and the most important factor which Pakistan faced is the decline of foreign direct investment .According to a report released by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Pakistan has dropped seven slots in the Human Development Index (HDI) 2021-2022. The country now ranks 161 out of 192 countries. The national integrity also vanished due to political instability. As we know, Pakistan is a combination of different people, like different religions, ethnicity, and people from different languages. But today the national integrity has become worse. For no reason, two brothers from the same mother in home hate each other due to political biases. PDM and PTI supporters are strongly against each other on social media and in the home even if they are brothers. Recently when a person attacked in a long march on khan, the chaotic situation started as the PTI workers attacked the residence of Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah Khan in Faisalabad soon after the assault on the long march. The PTI workers, charged with aggression, attacked Rana Sanaullah’s home and damaged household items. This situation reminds me of the story of the novel “Ice candy man “by Bapsi Sidhwa. This Pakistani novel discussed the Havoc situation of Pakistan and India during Partition. Before partition, the sikhs, Muslims, and hindus were living in the same village, but after partition they hated each other even though they are now living in different countries. The education institutions in Islamabad are also suffering badly. Due to political instability and many protests in Islamabad, the students are deprived of education. Every protest is happening in Islamabad, but no one ever thinks about education. The covid-19 affected education a lot, and now these dramas are not finished in the country. On the other hand, due to political instability, the terrorists also have returned to Swat, Bajwar and some other areas in kpk. Pakistan is facing many hurdles due to political instability. Pakistan also recently faced a catastrophic flood. Politicians must think about the enhancement of the country’s growth. To be a leader is not a good thing if you are unsustainable to the people. How can there be different parties on the same platform? This is not possible in a sincere condition, but this is quite possible when you want to become a leader only. The recent situation could be recovered easily if the government agrees on some points. The election must be dated. The protest must be stopped. Otherwise, education, integrity, and other factors will be suffering badly. The extremism in the country will be at its peak.Pakistan is already having low postilion in Human development index(HDI) and it decreased to 154 from 161 due to political instability in the country. So now every individual must wake up and do something good for the country.
