Political hyenas

Published Updated

In the post-Musharraf era, the leaders of PML-Q have been behaving like hyenas. Hyenas are known for scavenging on left overs. Last year, they attempted to grab Punjab government after the Governor's Rule, when they wagged their tails with the PPP at the Governor House in Lahore and the Presidency in Islamabad.
Now, the same political hyenas have started growling with saliva dripping down their jaws eyeing the government in the Centre (and possibly in Punjab) after JUI-F decided to leave the coalition government.
As a consequence of this scavenging action the third force might take advantage as they nearly did last year when they were an inch away from taking the charge.
