Few days back Punjab Assembly passed a resolution and banned the music concerts in its educational institutes. Apparently it was aftermath of incident in Atif Aslam's concert, which claimed three lives and left several injured. This specific concert was organized by Punjab Group of Colleges at Al-Hamra Cultural Complex. Any how keeping in view the trends associated with majority of Pakistani citizens, no major campaign was being expected against this resolution. One can easily find that an over whelming portion of middle class does not like such music activities for their children.
However i was astonished to watch the wind that various channels propagated against this resolution. Anchors and news persons immediately took some music related personalities online. Obviously music related personalities condemn the Punjab Govt act and declared it very harmful for peaceful society. Few politicians were also taken online and were badly depressed by media persons.
No one bothered to consult the public opinion or religious concerns. Media made his move and it was successfully deceived that Punjab Assembly banned the cultural activities and performed a very harmful act against social liberties.
Politicians became very much under pressure and another resolution was passed rejecting their prior view. It is a very shameful act of Pakistani media that they misguided the law makers against the public opinion. If there should be concerts in educational institutes then why not in hospitals, parliament, courts, prisons, nuclear installations, GHQ, air bases, naval fleets and even in homes. If it is our culture then let it flourish every where.
In fact it is part of an effort to impose and insert the music in our culture. Such music is not culture of people of Pakistan. It may culture of a minority that is being imposed on whole nation.
