Musharaf has announced that Pakistan will observe poll before January 9 2008. Is it true? It is diificult to answer about the polls promise because Musharaf always failed to keep his promises. The reason given by him of deviating from his promises is due the best national interest.

I wrote before about one man ruling in Muslim states. Muslim country leaders from Pakistan to Libya think they are the best options for their respective country but their thinking is totally wrong. The leaders like Musharaf, Qaddafi and many more who already died never gave up their positions due to premiership lust and greediness.

They always make false promises to keep the nation in dark and carry on their undemocratic decisions on peoples. They never think about the future. The decisions which took place in past much affect future but at that time those leaders already dead. One of a big example is late General Ziaul Haq. Due to his wrong decisions and false claims the entire nation is suffering today. He put Pakistan miles away from democracy.

In Pakistan one dictator came and rule the country for 11 years by saying that he is going to make this state a pure Islamic state.  The other dictator comes with ambitions of modernization. At the end the country is in a state of emergency.

Allama Iqbal the poet of the east said that the fortune of the nation cannot be changed if the people of that nation is not interested  in progressing. It is true and here the dictators never allow peoples to participate in nation  building. They only interested in taking advises from the peoples who are only the best wisher of the leaders but not the entire nation.
