Sir: There is no way these elections can be carried out in a fair and impartial manner. The very fact that certain political parties are being made to limit their campaign activities in fear for the lives of their workers hints at a very unique method of election maneuvering and rigging. One may call it the work of the Taliban or the sad fate that is only Pakistan’s to bear. I think we need to pull together as a nation to make sure democracy is ushered in no matter how much blood, sweat and tears flow. My vote is for all those people who are losing their lives and loved ones for the sake of our country. FAHAD ISHTIAQ Lahore
