“The Khan can dump The Man with the Plane, he can dump The Man on whom he bestowed a senatorship against quite a few legal lacunae, he can dump The Man with whom he Shared the Same Page for at least three years, he can dump The Man Who Saved Banigala but let Zaman Park go…”
“Well as a good daddy he can’t dump his children right?”
“Indeed though he can stop them from attending his oath taking ceremony as the Prime Minister…”

“Widen or follow the basic precept of equality notably to include all, no exceptions.”
“Ain’t gonna happen my friend.
