Overburdened PM
By Col. Riaz Jafri (Retd)

The PM has reportedly instructed suspension of certain top officials of Civil Aviation and PIA and ordered a Court of Inquiry to investigate a scuffle between the ASF personnel and the PIA passengers at the Islamabad International Airport last week.
One simply wonders why it had to be the PM to take note of such an ordinary brawl between a few people. Where were the CAA, PIA, ASF powers-that-be, or even the Airport area police SHO, to take action in such a small run of the mill incident that the highest executive of the country had to take note of? Were they all that nincompoop or lacked moral courage to take action against their subordinates? Or has it become a fad to look up to the PM for each and every wrong? The PM must get rid of such top heavy deadwood and replace them with efficient go-getters who know their job and can deliver.
