“The government needs to focus on what matters most.”
“Indeed and you must appreciate Shehbaz Sharif (SS) who met with Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) to discuss all provincial related issues not political issues.”
“Top marks to SS I say – to focus on topics that he can deliver on.”
“The Visionary was tasked to resolve all pending financial issues. Is he the right choice?”
“You mean because he wasn’t present in the meeting! Those present were political figures – The Rana and Amir Muqaam.”
“Muqaam is occupying the portfolio that The Maulana, if past precedence is anything to go by, may abandon anti-government rhetoric and…”
“You are wrong – he covets the Kashmir parliamentary committee not the Ministry – all the perks and none of the responsibilities.”
“Hmmm but Muqaam holds the portfolio of Frontier States so relevant, anyway there is something I have always admired about The Rana.”
“I admire his tone that is so measured, he never raises his voice and need I add people who do not take his words seriously might as well jump off the roof.”
“Right I mean The Man Who Must Remain Nameless and Faceless used to threaten powerful people publicly…”
“Threaten or accuse or…”
“Whatever but that’s not why I admire The Rana – he reportedly refused to win from his constituency when it was offered….”
“That report is not confirmed. But when I said the government needs to focus on what matters the most I meant…”
“I know what you are referring to? Khwaja Asif thundering in parliament that no one was listening to his statement on terrorism and that showed their lack of seriousness on this critical national issue…”
“Oh yeah? I thought it showed the weight given to his portfolio and therefore his words…”
“Don’t be facetious but no that’s not what I was referring to.”
“How about the cricket controversy…”
“No, wait and see what happens – I am not sure this will pan out the way we envisage. No, what I want the government to focus is on…”
“India getting a better deal than us from the US – 18 percent tariffs instead of 19…”
“No I want the Indus Waters Treaty…”
“Work is in progress there.”
“Any progress from the Indian…”
“How would I know that!”
“Hmmmm.”
