Aitzaz Ahsan, who was the keynote speaker at Oxford Union debate, made a very interesting observation about how he looks at his relationship with Pakistan People's Party (PPP). According to him, he can be taken out of PPP but PPP cannot be taken out of him.
He reportedly made the case that today Pakistan faces many serious challenges, but the continuation of democracy is a huge plus; it's like a river flow that if continues can throw out the dirt and the garbage of politics. Aitzaz was absolutely right. There is no denying that when you need the policy outcomes that lead to winners and losers, you need democracy. Indeed, democracy is like a river flow; it's all about a system that provides a mandate for these redistributive powers.
It is the most preferred system of governance in which every citizen has the right to vote; a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections.
