A political party
is an association of people which seeks to get goals and act as a bridge
between society and government. Citizens extend their needs and problems to the
government through the political parties. Political parties are the unit cell
of a democratic structure of a country. As related to Pakistan,
it has a multi-party democracy and the parliament of is bicameral, consisting of
national assembly and senate. 182 parties are
registered in Pakistan. Some parties
are fame just because of one man like Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Imran Khan. Pakistan
has failed to introduce a consistent and transparent
political party since independence. And parliament
of Pakistan is rolling between two families, the Bhutto’s and the Sharif’s.
In multi-party
system, sometimes small party decides who wins the elections rather than
voters. They decide which dominant party they should join to rule. The
existence of a strong and viable opposition keeps the ruling party alert. In Pakistan
people considers political party is like money making machine.
The recent
incident at 90 in Karachi, and presence of target killers, terrorist and arms
showed that political parties are not act as a link society and bridge but also
involve in illegal acts. And are causing anarchy throughout the country just to
achieve their goal.

It was surprising to know that Pakistan has 182 parties registered presently. Maybe it is because of this perpetual tussle between them that they have failed to do something substantial so far. I believe that if the competition was between two parties, Pakistan would have been in a better state. But then, the exact opposite can happen. Only the future can reveal if only two or more parties would help the handicapped state.
