Why and if Public Representatives reflect people’s sentiment
The Pakhtunkhwa (NWFP) assembly passed a resolution supporting and commending President Asif Ali Zardari with 76 to 4 votes while the opposition was either not allowed to speak against the resolution or it boycotted the votes.

Does this vote really reflect the sentiment of the people of Pakhtunkhwa? Why media is criticizing Zardari but not this institution. When will these Seats of Capitalists (Iqbal called is such) start listening to the public?
Many times these representatives are not really the representatives of majority of us. It is time to demand for a constitutional amendment for a run off election where the winning person only get a 28% of the popular vote.
