Report documents widespread frustration, alienation of Pakistan’s youth

It does not come as a surprise.The Pak.Govt.’s approach seems to be an one point agenda in running the administration, that is to engage India either verbally and militarily, at least from the eyes of the Indians.
No developmental activities are noticed.Any development in infra structure seems to be only increase in military hard ware.Politics seems to be a game of saving oneself from cases,and executing vendetta against each other.
Pakistan does not seem to have come to terms with its independence in that it is ambivalent in choosing their rulers,whether it is to be military or civilian.
Add to this frenzied religious extremism,you have a recipe for disaster.
Unless the educated, elite and the media wake up from their slumber, Pakistan will find it difficult to stay as a sovereign nation.
As an Indian, I can definitely say Pakistanis are no less intelligent than us and it pains us to see Pakistan tottering.
I would like to add here many of the comments on various topics in this site, seem to be dedicated to score over another and for vilification of either country.
I believe the forum should be used to promote good will among people of both countries, focusing on their positive aspects.

Formation of Telengana.

While it is a fact that KCR is a politician resorting to gimmicks and has no real concern for Telengana, it is a fact in AP ,Telengana and Rayalaseema areas were neglected and continue to be neglected.If the centre wants to avoid breaking up of states( Do they really want to?),they should develop these regions and deal with rowdyism resorted to by KCR &Co. But the intention of all the political parties , seem to be gaining power at least in some pockets, even by dividing the states;it ill bodes for the country.BJP and Congress also fall under this category.
