In political terms, horse-trading means illegal buying and selling of parliamentarians in secret deals at the cost of popular mandate and the law of the land. Unfortunately, this evil practice is happening not only during election season but every moment and every day in Pakistan.
The other name of horse-trading means corruption and betrayal to the nation and this is taking place in our country through evasion of taxes and use of ill-gotten money as status symbol which they amass to strengthen their further hold on the national economy and the resources.
