Partly Facetious: Which Raja are you referring to?

"According to reports National Accountability Bureau will file another reference against the Raja."
Published May 30, 2015

"According to reports National Accountability Bureau will file another reference against the Raja."
"Such names - Raja, Rana - which Raja are you referring to by the way? I mean I know of a Rana... Rana Sanaullah..."
"Raja Parvez Ashraf your former Prime Minister."
"Well, he is no longer the Raja if you know what I mean, just a has-been."
"The has-been is always next to the former President of this country and indisputable party leader Asif Ali Zardari who has the Raja on one side and Gilani, the pir, on the other, and sometimes Sherry Rehman..."
"Two losers in the last elections and one with a one-man constituency...why cant Zardari sahib have those around him who have actually won some elections?"
"Those are harder to control, you know they are kind of arrogant and can go anywhere and before you think this is specific to Zardari sahib let me tell you it is also prevalent in the PML-N, you have Marvi Memon, you have Senator Dar...."
"But you have the Khawajas galore who have a constituency, maybe a stay order constituency but they do stand for elections."
"You are mean."
"And even the Khan has a love for the unelected or shall we say the selected - Jehangir Tareen..."
"Hey, the guy actually won and there was rigging..."
"OK, but he is unelected at present and then you have Azam Swati the Senator again..."
"See the principle is the same for all national parties I guess but loyalty pays off the most in the PML-N party..."
"Loyalty to Mian sahib, or disloyalty to the party leader they dump before coming over to the PML-N?"
"Both I guess, I mean we have Marvi Memon, we have Zahid Hamid - Musharrafites both at one time - then we have Javed Hashmi a former Khanzadeh, the list is exhaustive you know but some are never ever to be forgiven and I mean the Chaudhrys of Gujrat..."
"Ah, yes indeed."
