Chali hai rasm ki koi na sar utha ke chale

I just now received this WhatsApp message after a gap of several days from a Pakistani who earlier used to speak to me or message me daily on WhatsApp :
“ Army Act has been imposed. Thousands of arrests r being made. People are being accused of being RAW agents. Calls and messages r being watched carefully and recorded“.
In short it implied that he could not talk to me or communicate with me, since the authorities may charge him with communicating with a RAW agent !
Has Pakistan become a Jurassic Park ? Or have
Pakistanis become like an Alice living in Wonderland ?

And has Pakistan become a Mad Hatter’s Party ?

 

I am reminded of Faiz Ahmed Faiz’s lines

“ Nisar main teri galiyon pe ki ai watan
Ki chali hai rasm ki koi na sar utha ke chale
Jo chaahne waala tawaaf ko nikle
Nazar chupa ke chale, jism-o-jaan bacha ke chale “

  1. Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite justification seemed to
    be on the internet the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you,
    I certainly get irked while people consider worries that they plainly do not know
    about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as defined out the whole thing without having
    side-effects , people can take a signal. Will likely be back to get more.
    Thanks
