The Politics of any state has a sound impact on each and every individual of the state. Whatever is going on in a country, whatever the future political planning is and the direction in which the country is proceeding have a profound effect on individuals. In many revolutions of the world students have played an active role as the world witnessed in Iranian revolution. No one can neglect the role of students in the development and progress of a nation as they are the wheels on which the vehicle of the state will run in future.
Being students of university, it is appreciable neither to close eyes and turn face from the political issues and problems of our homeland nor to entangle ourselves fully in politics so that our studies and professionalism is compromised.
Before going further, we should know what is politics? “The activities involved in getting and using power in public life and being able to influence decisions that affect a country or a civil society is known as politics”. The politics had been the profession of our Holy Prophet (PBUH) and the main aim of politics is to serve and benefit to everyone concerned.
Contrary to that, practically the politics in our country has been misused at each and every level and its results have been extremely negative. It is a well known reality that unfortunately the role of the political parties in educational institutions has been so much terrifying that it has swept many hopeful and costly lives. The life of a university student costs price of a single bullet. The walls and floors of many educational institutions are coloured red by blood shed by students. This condition stuns a sensible person.
No need to go in details of all the events we are familiar to those events in the past and what is going on nowadays throughout our country.
It is the matter of the state to decide for the existence of the political parties in educational institutions but at this moment all the parties whether nationalist or mainstream should clarify their aims and objectives in their manifesto for residing in educational institutions what they really want to achieve.
The parties should have a positive role in the development and progress in the context of studies and profession, in solving problems of students. Further they can also play a pivotal role by supporting the financially weak university students by funds collected from various entities and especially those who are unable even to get admission after they are selected through entry tests. If these are the main objective then all the parties should sincerely proceed to achieve the noble cause and stop misusing students for their hidden objectives.
The parties misuse students and students misuse the powers obtained by joining a party. Most of the students join party in order to gain unlawful powers and to impose personal decisions over majority and to have a big share from various funds. They fight innocent colleagues and each other for their influence, selfishness and egotism.
The parties should stop their blind support to those student leaders who are the real cause of threat to contaminate the study and welfare environment but should support those who really want to achieve the noble objectives.
