My thoughts on the state of Pakistan

In modern days, a state must have the following characteristics to become a state:

1) The people

2) A territory with internationally recognized borders

3) Sovereign political authority

Any state that lacks any of the characteristics mentioned above is not perfect.

Is Pakistan a perfect state?

No, it's not. Pakistan still has Kashmir and Afghanistan borers disputes. Until 

those disputes are solved, Pakistan will remain an imperfect state. Sos is India. It 

has many disputed borders with neighbors.

Also, sovereignty does not lie with the people. Since its inception, the state has 

been under military control. Pakistan will remain imperfect until the military 

releases its hold on political authority to its people. 

The current political system: 

1) Apparently, the state is run under an indirect parliamentary system. The

parliament has an upper and a lower house. The upper house is Senate, and the 

lower house is called National Assembly. 

The office of the Prime Minister:

The lower house elects Prime Minister. He is called the Quaid-e-Awan, the leader 

of the house. He picks his cabinet members from the National Assembly and the

Senate. If he chooses an outsider technocrat, he is called an advisor, not 

a minister. 

Ministers are in charge of various ministries that direct government 

departments, such as the Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 

Ministry of Finance, Ministry of the Interior, and many more. 

The built-in anarchy in the system: 

The Pakistani state has built-in anarchy into its design. The state has only seen

a few short periods of forced peaceful functioning. Otherwise, it has constantly

been swinging between one or another crisis since its creation. It's not without

reason.

From where does this anarchy come?

Irregulated political process is the primary source of political anarchy in the country.

For example, political parties look like more sort of family businesses.
