responsibilities
According to Hugo L. Black-“The layman’s Constitutional view is
that what he likes is Constitutional and that which he doesn’t like
is unconstitutional. That about measures up the Constitutional
acumen of the average person.”
The only hope for building a united and integrated nation with
dignity of the individual lies in the growth of institutions of civil
society and the citizens rising above petty self-interests,
identifying the hard core of citizenship values enjoined by the
Constitution and making a determined bid to work together to
protect and promote them by contributing all their mite.
Every citizen must accept the position that as citizens, all are
equal, have the same rights and responsibilities and are entitled
to equality before law without any discrimination. Everyone must
treat fellow citizens as equals and must not discriminate between
then on any grounds such as sex, religion, caste, etc. Every
citizen must enjoy the same fundamental rights of freedom of
thought and expression, freedom of religion, freedom from
exploitation etc. It follows that every citizen must respect the
freedom of all fellow citizens and must do nothing which may
result in exploitation of anyone.
Nations are made only when people rise above their narrow self
interests and are prepared to made scarifies for their fellow
citizens. Unless the citizens f Pakistan at large, are vigilant and
conscious of their obligations as citizens, there is no likelihood of
any constitutional reform agenda being implemented because
there are powerful vested interests in the status quo continuing.
