The leadership among the political parties should pay attention to the uplift of the deprived and browbeaten. These have been the central targets of political parties’ election manifestoes but remained largely unrealized. The Planning Commission, in consultation with all the political parties, prepares comprehensive and workable plans but it is primarily in the implementation phase and is weak. Political leaders worldwide who have made an impact were those who went through the rigors of political involvement while continuously educating themselves and learning from others. If Pakistan has to have a better future, there is no escape from concentrating and rectifying these weaknesses.
