Proposals for Projecting a Strong and Hard State Image

1. Uniform and Uncompromising Enforcement of the Rule of Law

   – The rule of law must be applied without exception, ensuring that no VIP is above legal accountability. 
   – A key starting point is the strict enforcement of traffic regulations, reinforcing the absolute authority of traffic police. 

2. Military Oversight for Traffic Law Enforcement in High-Risk Cities

   – In major cities such as Karachi, Hyderabad, Lahore, Multan, Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Peshawar, and Quetta, traffic accidents claim countless lives, and the VIP culture has fostered a “state within a state.” 
   – To restore order, traffic police should be placed under military police supervision, with cases tried in military courts, ensuring swift and decisive legal action. 

3. Zero Tolerance for Reckless Celebratory Gunfire

   – The state must impose the harshest penalties and ensure swift legal action against individuals involved in celebratory gunfire at weddings and election victories. 
   – Enforcing stringent measures will serve as a deterrent and reaffirm the government’s commitment to public safety.
