I felt like I became an orphan on
the day when terrorists destroyed the Ziyarat Residency, where my Quaid lived
his last days, and we were the sitting duck, sigh! Yes, we mourned courtesy of
media footages, motion image compilation with gloomy violin tunes…, but after
that we forget everything and came back to normal and put everything under
the carpet. However, we will rebuild this residency, but will we be able to rejuvenate
our Quaid’s honor, respect and transformational followership in the hearts and
minds of next generation? This is a serious concern and it is directly related
to Nation’s writ, because as a Pakistani I believe that there is no meaning of Pakistan without
Jinnah's Doctrine and Practical and Visionary approach!
Have we ever imagined the secret
of any nation’s prosperity and progress…? The secret is that they religiously follow
the teachings of their founder leader! For instance, we boast Pak-China
Friendship, but have we ever tried to find out what does ‘Mao Tse-tung’ and his ‘Little
Red Book’ mean to China…? Ask any ordinary Chinese citizen, you will come
to know that it’s everything for them!
The thought bubble, I am trying
to put here and before our honorable elected people’s representatives of
provincial and national assemblies, that it’s a matter of do and die
situation, if we give a bird's eye view to the history of sub-continent,
M.A. Jinnah
got Pakistan on the basis of two nations theory and now if we let this
kind of
anti-sentimental feelings and hatred (Ziyarat Residency) prevail, God
forbid, we will never be able to become one nation
but NATIONALITIES. I request our honorable representatives that they
should
introduce (on priority basis) a subject ‘Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah’
as a compulsory subject in all
the levels of education systems (whether Government, Private, Grammar,
levels
etc) up to the age of 21! We should try to stop our nation's division on
the basis of
languages we speak whether someone is Punjabi, Pushtoon, Balochi, Sindi,
Urdu,
Sariaki etc He/She should have one leader, and have one purpose
“Pakistan”. Let us make
Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah our vision statement for next
generation and
make it systematized, lets say in 20 years down the line we will be able
to grow and produce leaders like Jinnah for strong prosperous
Pakistan.
“Education is a matter of life and
death for Pakistan. The world is progressing so rapidly that without the
requisite advance education, not only shall we be left behind others but we may
be wiped out altogether.”
Quaid-e-Azam
(The Great Leader) Mr. Muhammad Ali Jinnah, September 24, 1947
For us and current generation, Government should start
compiling “The Green Book” which should have Quaid sayings, speeches, Islamic
ideology, struggle of youth and women, economy, court cases, wits and presence
of mind everything that can elaborate this Great Leader and his vision for Stronger
Pakistan. I urge the Government to develop and produce this book and distribute
it to every citizen of Pakistan regardless of creed, caste and religion. No Big
deal: Produce a ‘Little Green Book’, translate it in to different local
languages and make sure to distribute it to every citizen of Pakistan.....Do-able?
Otherwise Quaid-e-Azam will
remain a history subject and will be disappeared from the hearts and minds of
our future generation.
Pakistan Zindabad!
