That ‘process’ is the basis for governance, accountability and transparency in any state apparatus. The process includes organized and often legal methods through which decisions are made, policies are enforced and processes are implemented.
This includes a number of steps that ensure the effective functioning of public institutions, prevent corruption and maintain justice in the use of power. In countries where the failure to respect these actions has contributed to social and political crises, the importance of proper restoration for process cannot be promoted.
However, to slow this process, the ‘process’ should not be rotated by red tape. Red tape is an official routine or procedure that has excessive complications, which results in delays or delays. In Pakistan, ‘process’ is often stopped to avoid difficult bureaucratic confusion. Unfortunately, sometimes branded as performance and effective governance.
The concept of ‘action’ in governance refers to a systematic order of actions, procedures, rules and regulations that guide the use of decision -making, legislation, public administration and force. This ensures consistency, justice, accountability and legal status in the implementation of policies and decisions. Significantly, it protects against discretionary rule and protects the rights of citizens. These are the essential attributes of making equitable society possible.
Effective process in the government includes checks and balances, transparency procedures and paths for public participation. These are not just formal status but are the important components of legal status, accountability and maintaining the social system.
However, in Pakistan, the tendency to prioritize the consequences of the processes has often overlooked governance, which has led to political instability, corruption and legal crises. Rush for immediate resolution in political, economic or security issues often ignores necessary legal and institutional procedures, resulting in long -term negative consequences.
For example, Pakistan has tested repeated cycles of political instability, military intervention and legal ambiguity. These crises often arise from the neglect of appropriate action – such as fair elections, transparent policy -making and the rule of law. Ignoring the process has eliminated public confidence in government agencies, corruption has been promoted and repeated constitutional crisis has arisen.
The neglect of the process is also reflected in the way the policies are developed quickly, without proper consultation or consideration. As a result, decisions that can remove short -term concerns are often less than long -term stability.
The absence of the obligatory process in Pakistan’s governance system has played a significant role in the enrollment of authoritarian trends and the rise of powerful, unlicensed mafia parties in various fields. The lack of a strong framework to ensure fair, transparent transparency and accountability has created an environment where corruption and corruption grow, which allows powerful groups to work without fear of consequences.
From the sugar mafia to the petroleum mafia, even to real estate mafia, these groups seek irreversible control over important resources and markets, manipulate the system for personal gain and further enhance their influence.
The education sector is affected at both the lower and the highest levels, as well as the lack of proper process to prevent proper reforms. This has led to the trade of education so that the quality and merit is secondary to profit and political influence. Without a proper process, important principles of transparency and accountability cannot be understood, as there is no reliable method to expose corruption or enforce the rule of law.
It promotes a climate where government agencies that protect the rights of citizens are occupied by a powerful elite instead, which in turn leads to a overall harvest of confidence in the capabilities of the state so that it can only provide governance and equal opportunities for all. As a result, the absence of a proper process in the rule in Pakistan maintains the authoritarian grip on power, and eliminates the needs of the rest of the population and strengthens the influence of some people.
Healthy democracy grows in the strength of its process. Democracy is not just about the choice of leaders. It is also about establishing and respecting the rule of power. These processes ensure that decisions are made in accordance with transparent, fair and law, rather than being driven by personal interests or political stability.
The rule of law, the basis of democratic rule, cannot be understood without following these actions. In Pakistan, the absence of a permanent process has disrupted the rule of law, as is a testament to the growing frustration of the people in the judicial system and its delay. Justice is delayed, as is the proverb, justice has been denied. Ironically, in the appointment of judges in the high courts, there is hardly any fixed standard under which their eligibility can be ascertained.
It is not without a concrete reason that Islamic thinkers have long emphasized the importance of the process in ensuring just governance. Al -Farabi, a prominent philosopher of politics, emphasized that the role of the ruler is not merely to govern, but to ensure the welfare of society through justice. He argued that justice could not be achieved through discretionary decisions, but its root should be included in organized, law -linked rule.
Ibn Khaldun, a prominent figure in the spheres of sociology and education, has warned that the absence of a fair legal system affects the provision of justice to the rulers, which causes social unrest. His views resonate firmly in the context of Pakistan, where the lack of permanent, transparent process has caused public dissatisfaction and has undergone social stability.
Another Islamic scholar, Al -Muradi, emphasized the centrality of the rule in governance, saying that the rulers should be guided by the rule of law and should avoid discretionary decisions. His point of view indicates that governance is not just about leadership but also following a framework that ensures justice, transparency and social harmony.
Similarly, political ideologists of the 19th and 20th century have emphasized the priority of the process to ensure strong governance. John Stuart Mill, in his own advocacy of liberal democracy, emphasized that the rule should be based on the principles of justice, justice and rule of law.
Max Weber, known for its theory bureaucratic governance, argued that a rational legal authority, which operates under the established procedures and rules, to ensure performance and legal status in the government. The absence of such a process is called “charismatic domination”, where decisions are based on personal strength rather than institutional principles, which causes instability and potential corruption.
In the 20th century, political ideologists like Hannah Arendat and Michelle Focalt also warned against un -examined power that ignores institutional process. Arandat, in the analysis of his sovereign governments, highlighted that the harvesting of political processes could lead to the concentration of power in the hands of some people, which has damaged democracy and justice. The detection of the dynamics of the power of the focal power indicated the importance of institutional structures and the process to prevent the misuse of power.
Ignoring the proper process in Pakistan has led to an environment where personal power is often given priority than institutional integrity. The policies are made in keeping with the short -term interests, and without proper examination and balance, which causes long -term instability. Corruption grows in the absence of an institutional process, as those who come to power are free to work in their own interests without accountability or transparency. This eliminates public confidence and weakens the justification of the political system.
Respecting the institutional processes and ensuring that power is used according to the law, Pakistan can overcome its current crises and move towards a more prosperous and fair society.
