Winston Churchill s

Sir: Winston Churchill, the wartime prime minster of the United Kingdom predicted the contours and conducts of our future leadership at the time of Pakistan’s birth, 65 years ago. “All leaders will be of low calibre and men of straw. They will have sweet tongues and silly hearts. They will fight amongst themselves for power and the two countries will be lost in squabbles. A day will come when even air and water will be taxed.”
Certainly, we have worked very hard to prove him right.
