Islamabad(Big Digit) : IPP. is an electables party or a party of the electable

After the joining of former Federal Minister Ghulam Sarwar Ghan in Rawalpindi Division, the Pakistan Party seems to be able to field its candidates at the national level.People of political stature including former federal minister Dr. Firdous Ashiq Awan Aleem Khan are includedَin Khanewal After the big power show of the Pakistan Party, it was believed that the party has come out of the drawing room and entered the field. No doubt, Nawabzada Ayaz Khan Niazi breathed a new face into the party. The next election was also held in Hafizabad, where a big The venue was decorated in the same way after the joining of former federal minister Ghulam Sarwar Khan from Patwar, the party became stronger in the public sphere and without a doubt, the political scenario will change in the federal capital and its adjacent Azla after the rally of Ghulam Sarwar Khan. He is a popular and dynamic politician with the largest public vote bank of Pakistan, whose politics has been successfully completed for 40 years. If so, this is increasing their psychological superiority.

In the 75-year history of Pakistan, new political parties have been formed frequently, and generally before the elections, a new political alliance has been formed or a new party has been founded due to the dissolution of a particular political party.

Before the general elections of 2018, the PML-N split. In Balochistan, the ‘Balochistan Awami Party’ was founded, while the ‘Suba Mahaz Ittehad’ was formed in South Punjab, which later merged with the PTI. Apparently, the same kind of upheaval at the political level before the 2018 election is going on in the present moment.

Jahangir Khan Tareen, whose importance was prominent for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s government formation after the 2018 election, has again assumed an important position in the political scene. Jahangir Khan Tareen had accelerated the series of political connections in the context of the situation after May 9, the result of which is the ‘Stability Pakistan Party’.

But many people are asking the question whether this new party will prove to be a challenge for PTI or is it a threat to other political parties as well? In which areas of Pakistan will the influence of this party be greater? After all, what is the reason that new political alliances and parties are established before the election and what are the objectives behind them and does the existence of such parties lead to stability or destabilization of the political system?

All these aspects will be reviewed in this report, but first, read that new political parties were formed in Pakistan ‘under necessity’ and what was the scope of their objectives?

From ‘Republican Party’ to ‘Isthakam Pakistan Party’, why and how were the formation of political parties?

If we look back at the political history of Pakistan, it is known that the Governor General and the first President of the country, Iskandar Mirza, first needed a party to consolidate and extend his power. This was the period when the All India The Muslim League had become weak.

Iskandar Mirza founded the Republican Party in September 1956 and became its vice president. But this party could not gain any popularity.

After that in the year 1962 General Ayub Khan founded a political party ‘Convention Muslim League’. In the formation of this party, many leading leaders of the Muslim League supported Ayub Khan, but this political party collapsed with the end of Ayub Khan’s power.

Only eight years after its formation, in the 1970 elections, the Convention Muslim League fielded its candidates for 124 seats in the National Assembly, but this party could only win two seats and after these elections, the party remained a story.

According to political analyst Dr. Syed Jafar Ahmad, Ayub Khan’s party needed the landlords, industrialists and the privileged classes to maintain close ties with the government and get official patronage. Even this stance could not support the power and as soon as the public protest started, Ayub’s recruited political workers left him.

In 1962 General Ayub Khan founded a political party ‘Convention Muslim League’, in the formation of this party many leading leaders of the Muslim League supported Ayub Khan.

After the death of General Zia in a plane crash, the ruling circles of the country decided to hold general elections. Even then, it was widely believed that after the end of the power of General Zia, the establishment had avoided politics, but before the elections in 1988, those political forces were gathered on a platform which was Zia’s. It was a mirror of thoughts.

This platform was named ‘Islamic Democratic Alliance’. The main purpose of forming this new political platform was to form a new line against the People’s Party. The 1985 elections were conducted by General Zia on a non-partisan basis, but in the 1988 elections, he needed a political party against the People’s Party.

And later, the Muslim League broke out from within this ‘IJI’.

General Musharraf seized power in October 1999 and announced general elections in 2002. General Musharraf broke the leaders of the Muslim League-N and formed the Muslim League-Q.

In the elections, PML-Q won numerically more seats in the provincial and national assemblies. On the other hand, after the election, ‘People’s Party Patriot’ was formed from People’s Party, which included important people like Aftab Sherpao, Faisal Saleh Hayat and Dr. Sher Afgan, and this new party also decided to support Musharraf.

Although the Q-League lost its initial popularity after Pervez Musharraf’s tenure, the party still exists as an important factor in today’s political landscape, regardless of the rift between Pervez Elahi and Chaudhry Shujaat. .

Similarly, the formation of Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) was announced in March 2018. In this party, defected members of Muslim League-N got a place and many leaders of Q-League also joined it. As a result of the 2018 provincial elections, the Ministry of Ala, Balochistan fell under the Awami Party despite the formation of this political party only four months before the elections.

Why is there a need for ‘Stability Pakistan Party’ before the elections?

Political alliances and parties have been formed and broken in different periods and new political arrangements have been made during political periods and dictatorships. As far as the Stability Pakistan Party is concerned, apparently it includes a large number of political leaders who were part of Tehreek-e-Insaaf before the May 9 incident.

According to political observers, the events of May 9 cannot be considered as the foundation of this new party.

Ahmad Bilal Mehboob, an expert on electoral politics, says, “It has happened many times in Pakistan that political parties have been formed almost artificially.” If we look at the history, it is known that behind such parties there are powerful people who do complete planning and design the structure of the new party. And we all know who these people are. Some people made the IJI, some people made the Muslim League-Q and this process continues even today.

He said that its main purpose is to maintain the monopoly of powerful people. But in some time, when a political party grows so much that it starts to trust itself or does not like to be subservient, then again a new political party is needed.’

Formation of a new party, the old game of political engineering?

The important question is, did the country’s political system really need a new political party for stability or is it all an old game of political engineering?

Ahmad Bilal Mehboob says, ‘The establishment of new political parties in Pakistan does not happen only at the time of elections, but it can happen even before that. A political party does not come into existence as a result of genuine impulse or necessity or as a result of the sincere efforts of some people. A few parties may have been formed in the past which may have been genuine, but history shows that this was generally not the case.’

If we talk about the Republican Party, it was the result of the thinking of the establishment of that time, Iskandar Mirza and his associates. Similarly, those who join parties need to have their own goals. They have to protect themselves and cover up their mistakes. All such people join the new party and strengthen it. .’

Analyst Asma Shirazi says that political engineering has been and continues to be attempted at the moment, but apparently not as effective as it was in 2018. Electables can change parties, can go from one party to another, but the case of voters is different.

When the same question was put before anchor Absa Komal, he said that the behavior of political parties changes when they are in opposition and in government. In the 2018 election, there was political engineering with Muslim League-N and JUIF. Whereas after the upcoming election, we will probably be able to say that the same thing happened to PTI as happened to the two parties mentioned in 2018.

Is the stability of Pakistan party the result of a movement?

It has always been the general thought of the political and social circles of Pakistan that without the support of the establishment, no political party, especially the new political party, can gain access to the reins of power.

One of the main reasons behind this general thinking may be that the establishment has been forming certain political parties as per its need.

In this regard, Ahmad Bilal Mehboob says that ‘Jahangir Tareen is incompetent at this time. The impression is that he has the support of the establishment. Whether it is true or not, the important thing about the impression is that if the impression is not broken, it will attract many people, influence them. will Those who have to stay in power want to join a party which has the shadow of the establishment.

Asma Shirazi says that such parties have no ideology. This country is also fortunate that the same way king parties are formed here, they also break up. The hand of the establishment remained on PMLN, but after Musharraf’s seizure of power and the democratic charter, an ideology was definitely born in this party. But PTI is disintegrating the way it was formed. It is possible that Jahangir I am the priority of the highest establishment at this time.’

Absi Komal says, ‘I have spoken to many people in this regard. I have tried to find out whether Jahangir Tareen has the support of the establishment or not. But there is ambiguity in this regard. There is no clear position. In 2018, the names of those who supported PTI were there and discussed, nothing like that at that time. The focus of the establishment is only Imran, maybe the establishment has no role besides that.’

Will Isthikam Pakistan Party be a challenge to PTI?

If seen, the initial impression regarding Jahangir Tareen’s party was that it would include most of the electables from South Punjab, but according to the latest situation, where it includes representation from Karachi, it will include from across Punjab. Representation is also visible.

If Jahangir Tarin could have gathered more people in the party than just South Punjab, then it would necessarily have caused the biggest loss to the People’s Party because the People’s Party has its vote bank in South Punjab and some big families are also available.

Former Federal Secretary Election Commission Kanwar Dilshad says that ‘Jahangir Tareen’s party will harm the PTI as well as the People’s Party, because the electables who have come from South Punjab were also looked at by the People’s Party.’

Will the Stabilization Pakistan Party be limited to South Punjab?

Amir Kayani, the leader of the Stabilization Pakistan Party, who recently parted ways with Tehreek-e-Insaaf, says, “We have not limited this party to a specific region, but it will be a party of the whole of Pakistan. The main political leaders of the region are included in it, who have political stature in their respective constituencies.

According to Aamir Kayani, ‘Initially there was an impression that we have more people from South Punjab, but important leaders from every region of Punjab have now joined this party and are joining it. All the leaders in the party are electable. We have to take decisions together and create political harmony for this party.

Mehmood Maulvi Baki from Karachi was also very happy with the establishment of this new party.

He says, “We are all like-minded friends who have formed the party together and run it. I will look after the affairs of the party in Sindh and many important people are in touch with us from here. I will go back to Karachi and set up an office and People will start coming. Ours is a democratic party, there is no problem with anyone. There is a big challenge for us in Karachi, but we will stand side by side with the big parties.ق
