Towards his fall Mr. Bhutto did three great acts to save his empire. One, He banned alcohol, two, he declared Friday as weekly holiday and three, one day he brought a small bottle full of petrol in Parliament and announced, “We have discovered huge reserves of petrol”. None of his great acts survive anywhere in Pakistan today. The so called discovery of huge reserves of petrol are not there either.
History repeats itself. On February 11, 2015 our PM Mian Nawaz Sharif discovered huge deposits of iron, copper and gold in Chiniot district. Mian Sharif’s big pictures appeared in the press next day, holding a big ‘danda’ of iron in his hands. I wonder is iron ore found in that form anywhere in the world. Where are those deposits today? Liars!
