It is the time for little big things. The little ones have been perforating the toxic air of Islamabad with rhythmic regularity this last fortnight. The littleness of these little things manifests itself in the insignificant outcomes they produce on the larger canvas strewn tight across the capital. The provocative but irrelevant political statement, the hyped but inconsequential parliamentary session, the loud but unsubstantive partisan attack the ordinariness of these happenings is hard to disguise even when couched in the glare of media headlines. So humdrum. So monotonous.

Something very strange and alarming is happening inside the PML-N. The party that has reigned over the country three times and believes it is the most popular outfit today, is taking vicarious and delicious pleasure in cutting its nose to spite its face.
“It is absolutely bizarre,” says a party insider who is watching with horror his leaders wrestling with each other in full glare of the public. The famed ‘dual narrative’ within the PML-N has now bubbled to the surface and is turning toxic. The party is making a spectacle of itself and the PTI government is loving it. What more could they want than to see PPP cross swords with PML-N and PML-N cross swords with PML-N.
