Constitution – An Essential Element to Run the State Affairs

Constitution - An Essential Element to Run the State Affairs

Rules are a crucial element to form a healthy community. Each of the states has its own rules for the country or region. These rules are often formed under the influence of religion some of them based on ancient principles that do not even address the issues of the contemporary world. Fortunately, it is not a case for all countries.

Islam originated in the 5th century with the arrival of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) who come with a Holy book which is called Quran Majeed. The book provides rudimentary knowledge about everything but does not address each of the dimensions completely. Therefore, one needs a set of references to perform any task such as prayer. Here comes Hadith which tells method and rules to perform a prayer. Unfortunately, the whole of the ummah does not agree on the so-called rules. Sectarianism is the major issue Muslims are facing these days. Even nations are fighting others and killing hundreds of thousands, only because of religious supremacy.

The Islamic Republic of Pakistan, as the name speaks for itself. Pakistan is an Islamic country where most of the rules are made by Muslims. It doesn’t mean, Pakistan is not human-friendly for minorities. It is a secular state as the founder of Pakistan said, “so that the life, property and religious beliefs of its subjects are fully protected by the state”. The Prime Minister of Pakistan accomplished the vision of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah by opening the Kartarpur Corridor on November 9, 2019.

Further, Jinnah spoke in his speech,

“In any case, Pakistan is not going to be a theocratic State — to be ruled by priests with a divine mission. We have many non-Muslims — Hindus, Christians, and Parsis — but they are all Pakistanis. They will enjoy the same rights and privileges as any other citizens and will play their rightful part in the affairs of Pakistan”

Pakistan only Nuclear Power Islamic State that has much influence on Muslim Umma. Unfortunately, delay in the constitution-making lead to chaos. It is because, the lack of cooperation between the administrative personal, sectarian differences, and immediate death of the founder of the state.

Constitution of Pakistan

Roughly, there is two million pending case in Pakistan. There are thousands of people who are rotting the dark dungeons and torture cells waiting for a trial. One can say, in 1947 Great Britain left the Indian Subcontinent, but slavery didn’t abolish altogether. The elite takes that place. Bilal (Ph.D. Scholar) spoke in one conversation,

“during the formation of Constitution of 1973, the Ahmadis were declared non-Muslims. The Shia (Ahle Tashi) would follow the same fate if the Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was not himself Ahle Tashi.”

Justice is very expensive in Pakistan; it is out of the reach of common citizens. Here, Judges often fear to speak of religious matters. Most of the case is often infinitely delayed. There are thousands of people behind the bar for years waiting for their trial.

Leader of Muslim Ummah in the Middle East, Kingdoms Saudi Arabia also does not have a human-friendly constitution. KSA has one of the highest execution rates in the world. During 2018, Arabia executed a couple from Pakistan whose trial was not held in the international language. How one can prove the false allegation laid against him if one is not familiar with the language?

To encapsulate, the constitution is the most element to run state affairs. It is one of the core components to form a human-friendly community.

Windows Strategy to Earn Money

Windows PC

Windows is one of the core products of Microsoft. Therefore, it was not free to use the software. Since it’s creation, if someone wants to use it, one needs to buy it. The strategy has changed dramatically since the inception of Windows 10.

The strategy to earn money varies from company to company.

During the early years, when Windows was in the development phase, the strategy was “the end-user has to buy our product before they can install our software.”

This strategy was followed in Windows 95, XP and other versions of Windows till the release of Windows 10.

After the creation of Windows 10, Microsoft made it free to download, install, and use. But, apart from some features which probably not needed for a typical computer user such as Hypervisor. Apple revealed that Windows is four times more prevalent than Mac. It is because Mac OS can only be used on the hardware bought from Apple.

Desktop OS market share, according to NetMarketShare, for September 2019.

With the release of Windows 8, Microsoft also launched Microsoft Store to deliver applications to end-users. In the early years, it does not worth using. Probably, there were not many applications available. But, not it has a well professional look and is full of thousands of applications.

There is a net of applications among most of them are free to use with only a limited set of features. You must use one of them or most of them in your day to day life. Microsoft will collect your data and run ads.

Microsoft has a family of applications, so one way or another, you are investing in the biggest software tech giant. Therefore, if you are not paying for Windows, no problem. Microsoft will get a commission when one buy applications from Microsoft Store.

Gaming is also a massive industry, and Microsoft also holds a significant chunk of shares. Steam (The digital video game distribution platform) publishes a report, Microsoft comprises more than 95 percent of the shares. To keep harmony among gaming console and personal computer, one also will use Windows.

In case one is running a free copy of Windows, he will end up using other Microsoft products. And, it will charge for other products such as OneDrive.

Moreover, Microsoft is developing applications for Android, Mac OS, and iPhone. MS Word, Excel, OneDrive, and other apps are available on all major platforms. The strategy is one will end up paying money for the apps.

To sum up, Microsoft is generating a massive amount of money through ads. The company is collecting user’s data on every step. Apps like OneDrive MS Office also hold a significant share of the revenue. Windows is free to install, run, and use the software. The user will end up paying for other applications rather than Windows itself. Despite all these factors, Microsoft never flourished in the World Wide Web.

Basant — A harmonic Festival

Basant

Basant is the event of harmony.

Some of the people believe that some of them that all of the people

Basant is the festival that is being held since ancient times. This festival is held without the boundaries of race, religion, or gender. Everyone participating in the event without racial discrimination.

However, due to the use of dangerous material, this often brings causalities, such as serious injuries or even death. Moreover, people mostly fly kites over the rooftops rather than open grounds, sometimes this also results in a serious problem.

The use of glass in the preparation of strings is very dangerous. Last year, a man was died because a glass quoted-string crossed his throat. Therefore, cotton strings are recommended and these should be used.

As Imran Khan, a cricketer turned politician, himself enjoying Basant a few years back.

The government should ban the illegal creation of strings rather than the ban of the festival which is considered legal around the globe since ancient times.

Colonies in the Twenty-First Century

Colony

China is making new colonies through Belt and Road Initiative. Pakistan can be struck in the net of China through China Pakistan Corridor. There are more than two hundred states that exist in the world. Some of them are autonomous; however, a few are not. It is the rule of law, all of them have a leader to look at all of the state matters.

In the past, different nations were governed directly. However, in this century, this dilemma is changing drastically.

Nowadays, states can be governed directly or indirectly which affects the efficiency and effectiveness of a government. One can say, this is the era a neo-colonialism; like Bratin, one does not need to go and build a colony. All of this can be done by affecting foreign policy.

There are questions that china is going to make colonies around the globe through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). It is a massive project of a trillion-dollar. A part of that which links China to the Indian Ocean; the corridor starts from Khunjerab Pass to Gawadar port. It is hoped to be completed in $63 billion, totally invested by China.

China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a good project for China that will give leverage to the Chinese nation, but how much Pakistan can have benefit the time will tell. This project which is fully funded by China can affect the sovereignty of Pakistan.

In 2018, China builds a port in Sri Lanka on the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Unfortunately, the state failed to pay the debts invested by the Chinese government. Therefore, a deal was signed between both of the nations for 100 years which gave China leverage and made her hegemon in the ocean.

Finally, China is affecting the nations around the globe through export, investment, and so-called BRI. But, how much the Chinese people will have an impact on other nations, the coming years will tell.
