Note from the chief editor

When the contribution of our Pakistani members for this YouthSpeak reached me shortly after the assassination of Mrs Benazir Bhutto, it spurred me to dig deeper in the backgrounds of this crisis. The article that was sent to me attempts at explaining the current crisis by referring to several aspects that often go unnoticed in the mainstream media.

Since its independence in 1947, Pakistan has lived under firm control of military and civil burocracy. People have no say in its matters and even MPs openly condemned the parliament as a rubber stamp institution. Pakistan came into being in 1947 but it only managed a constitution developed in 1973 by its Parliament after the secession of Bangladesh in 1971. The constitution adopted after 26 years of independence remained in jeopardy from its conception onwards.
