At a time when the country is at the crossroads of political and economic turmoil, the need for a broad-based dialogue is a jiff of fresh air. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s desire to kick-start a national dialogue is well within the realm, and should walk the talk. A policy that should spell out economic and strategic hallmarks for the next decade or so, and one that should not be influenced or hampered with the change of political guard cannot be delayed any further. Their thrust to rewrite a new Charter of Democracy and a grand consensus on economic reforms is public discourse. This call for dialogue is part of One Nation, One Policy; and must go ahead in all humility.
