Kiya Tamasha Ho Chuka —–!کیا تماشا ہو چُکا

My Urdu Op-ed in the context of recent political turmoil created by the antics of Imran Khan, and cleric Tahir ul Qadri.
I have proposed that , the ultimate beneficiary of the current political debacle in Pakistan, is its army that was not happy that Pakistani PM, Nawaz Sharif was reducing the imprint of the Army on Pakistan’s security and foreign policy.

I also express fears that army will intervene overtly or covertly, and I hope that democracy is not derailed again.
