One thing puzzles me all the time , Why these analysts count THAPPAS as vote got by MQM?
This Saleem Safi is an idiot. Jirga is much better than stupid and rubbish Britisher Judiciary System. We, the tribals, resolved severe problems up to deaths and land issues in Weeks to months but British Judiciary System takes years and years after spending a lot of money.
This Safi is not even living in Tribal. He lives in Mardan then how much he knows about Tribal area? And in Non-FATA areas Jirga operates as well but on a small scale. This Safi doesn't even know what IK wants in KP but uttering rubbish without having any knowledge.

Safi may not always be right but he has a point here in the sense that there is a law of the land (you may not like it but its a reality). This is how things get out of hand when people say we don't like a law so we are going to do what works. Thats a recipe for massive chaos. Since we are parliamentary system then we should adopt the proper way to change a law that people think is antiquated and is not in line with the times and wishes of the people. Doing things one off is never a good idea.
If jirga system works then do canvassing for it and get enough representatives to make it into law. Jirga system seems to have some advantages, such as speed, availability and costs. At the same time it has disadvantages too and those disadvantages or flaws could lead to severe consequences.
What we need and what we lack is the art of constructive debate and the art of building consensus for the larger good of the people.
If people were smart they would amend the laws to incorporate provisions of Jirga system that work and marry it with the modern legal system (note that I didn't say antiquated British judicial system).
