Waheeda Shah got slap from ECP in response of her slap


Finally the echo of Waheeda Shah’s slap has settled down. Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has disqualified her for two years and has declared the election null and void. This land mark verdict of E.C.P was not against Waheeda Shah only; it has slapped the whole feudal system in Pakistan.
Indeed Waheeda Shah is a ‘vaderan’ and her very illicit act shows that. I could still have goose bumps when I watch her slapping the two female presiding officers. It could have been any one’s mother, wife, sister or daughter. Is the common man or a poor is destitute of mercy from all these hi profile politicians or feudalism.  Though justice prevailed in the end, but it was only due to media. Media has over played the issue that has shocked the entire nation. We usually complain about media that it exaggerates the issues, but I would say it is only the exaggeration of media, that has brought the justice in power. Either it is Sialkot incident, or killing of a youth at the hands of rangers in Karachi, both were given justice because media were hauling the system over the coals. So we should be thank full to media, at least they have brought the justice to the lower class to some extent.
If any of such incidents would have happened a decade ago, when there was no private media. Could we even think of any justice that time? Just imagine if Waheeda Shah would have slapped the two ladies in the absence of media, would they have got justice? If media had not over played the issue, would the higher authorities have even bothered to take any action against the culprit? It has all happened due to media. But the question arises, is it only the media that has been the cause justice, to the lower class and will things always remain the same? We need to enforce such legislation that directly brings the all the politicians and feudalistic under the trial. It should not be the pressure of media that brings justice to the middle class; it should be the spirit of the authorities to make the all citizen accountable for their actions.
It is twenty first century and we are in dire need of eliminating this feudal mind set from our society. It’s not only the Waheeda Shah case, each day numerous such cases happen in interior Sindh and Punjab. Why such feudal are given free hand from the law enforcement agencies? Isn’t the law of Pakistan applicable on them? Are all the laws only for middle class and poor ones? The very simple reason for all these is that, we vote these feudal in elections and elect them as our parliamentarian representatives? We are the one who bring them in power. Most of the candidates of P.P.P and P.M.L-N are feudal and if such mind set have been given the authority by our votes, how could we accept the change in our society? All in all the drop scene of Waheeda shah’s case is the victory of justice and tight slap on the feudal mind set, but this justice should prevail in the society with same zeal.
