There should be a coalition of the opposition parties

Dear Editor,
I am not a political scientist nor have I ever studied politics but over these many years I have observed that no political party which wins an election with a clear majority ever shares any of its powers with the loser. The only time there is power sharing is when there is no clear winner, then a coalition government is formed with shared responsibility.

We had a PNC-UF Coalition and now in Pakistan – Nawaz Sharif and Bhutto’s widower, Asif Ali Zardari who has led her Pakistan People’s Party together with the small Pakistan Nationalist Party have agreed to work together.
