Others still are counting on the international chessboard and interpreting Afghanistan and FATF as an opportunity to sweep the PTI board clean. And now of course, they are hoping the DG ISI fiasco will prove to be the last straw which will rid the fauj and the opposition of Khan. His economic mishandling has angered his handlers, was the mantra a few weeks back, they whispered confidently. The real plan, it seems, is to count not on themselves or their street power but on Khan’s bumbling. But it has to be conceded that the PDM does make more sense in its off-the-record conversations. The statements are about as clear as Shaukat Tarin’s plans for the economy. And for good measure, it throws in a claim that the party will win the next election. So, in one breath the party lashes out at the PML-N for, say, making deals and on the other, it wants the PML-N to accept the PPP’s assistance to dislodge Usman Buzdar in Punjab, but not Imran Khan at the centre. It swings wildly from one extreme to the other and hopes the sheer entertainment value will keep anyone from realising that the plan is to have no plan. The PPP, on the other hand, has a strategy as clear as the PTI’s economic plan. The real plan, it seems, is to count not on themselves or their street power but on the PM’s bumbling. It’s great for filling airtime but without any insights into lessons learnt. In reply, they go on a rambling monologue like a jilted lover, who just can’t stop talking about the end of the affair. Ask the PDM why they will succeed this time with their protests if the previous stint of jalsas ended with a bang - the exit of the PPP and ANP and broken hearts in their own corner. The mainstream opposition continues to play-act like the student who has done no prep for the exam but is hoping to wing it, which is not dissimilar to Imran Khan’s plan for governance. For what else can explain the behaviour of all those in the spotlight at the moment? It is hard to say if the excitement within their ranks matches the one for the last outing, but the bystanders are definitely less interested.īut be it summer, winter or protest season, the Confundus Charm has entire Pakistan under its spell.

The TLP has already been on this annual outing and after having set off the panicked debate about its impending rise, it has now given negotiations another chance, costing Sheikh Rashid his moment in the cricket stadium in Dubai. It comes when the summer has packed up the worst of the heat to make way for a bit of cooler weather and political parties are confident their workers are ready to brave the elements and invade Islamabad. PEOPLE say there is a fifth season in Pakistan.
