Pakistan: Political Rumblings in Islamabad

In a new piece, Al Jazeera’s Pakistan correspondent Kamal Hyder reports that many in Islamabad are questioning the strength of the ruling Pakistan Peoples Party and some are actively working to bring about its demise. “The word revolution is now resounding inside the plush drawing rooms of Pakistan’s leafy capital,” writes Hyder, adding “No one knows if there will be a revolution or not, but in the event of it happening one thing is quite clear – this will be branded a revolution with a local and indigenous Pakistani seal. And it will carry with it a major backlash against opulent and corrupt rulers who have for decades betrayed the trust of these proud people.”
