All indicators show that our successive governments, including the incumbent one, due to imprudent economic and tax policies, have pushed Pakistan into chronic, unremitting, unceasing debt-enslavement. Debtocracy is yet to be part of public discourse in Pakistan vis-à-vis state sovereignty and the future of democracy. This was highlighted way back in May 2017 by activist and academic, Ammar Ali Jan, when he wrote an article highlighting the point.

Mumbai, April 1 : At least 20 persons from Mumbai have joined thousands more from all over India in the unique Dandi-Delhi Mitti Satyagraha initiative, intended to express solidarity with the farmers agitating outside Delhi since the past nearly four months, activists said here on Thursday.
The Soil Satyagraha is an enactment of the historic Dandi Yatra launched from Ahmedabad to Dandi, 390 km away, by Mahatma Gandhi, culminating in the Salt Satyagraha 91 years ago (March 12-April 5, 1930). At that time, the Satyagraha was against the oppression of the British rule. This time, it is to highlight the insensitivity of the present Central government to the cause of the farmers, workers and common masses, Feroze Mithiborwala, one of the participants from Mumbai, told IANS.
