Is Dictatorship better than Democracy?

Hello Everyone,

    While talking about the forms of government, one may come across democracy and dictatorship, being the most popular forms of government in today's world. Before we come across the differences, lets define them.

What is Democracy?

    Democracy is a form of government where people vote to elect their leader. The majority of the people is considered and the candidate with major votes is elected. In democracy, people have the freedom to oppose what is being wrong or simply, they can elect some other candidate considered better than the previous one.

Benefits of Democracy

     People have the right and freedom to vote. They can enjoy the governance of their own elected candidate and if they have any sort of problem they have the right to oppose. In every decision the government make, common people are also considered.

Drawbacks of Democracy

   Democracy has its positive and negative aspects, like everything else. Elections are the most time consuming events in democracy. Every process and every decision is slow, because the opinion of a common man is considered. The biggest drawback of democracy is that, if the majority of people is ignorant or not well educated, they would elect some non-sense leader which will result in the destruction of the whole system. Now, as every process is slow because of the most of the opposition there comes the need of any other form of government.

What is Dictatorship?

     Dictatorship is the form of government in which all the authorities are given to an individual. He is the leader, there is no exception. He will govern all the state by himself, forget about elections. Everyone has to obey every order. You don't have to elect anyone.

Benefits of Dictatorship

    Every event is fast, no elections, no opposition and no waiting for the passings of bills. Dictator must have a versatile personality to look after different affairs. He orders, no opposition and the order is obeyed.

Drawbacks of dictatorship

    People lose their freedom and as a result it promotes a brutal government. There is no opposition, everyone obeys and can't oppose. This brutal government causes destruction to economy. The investors, fearing the dictator, invest in other countries, causing a huge impact on economy.

  Every form of government has its positive and negative aspects, now it depends upon the regnant, how the government should work.

Mushkpuri Diaries

        What else can be better than having fun with friends? A long awaited morning came. We were done with the OHTs, it was exhausting. Who likes exams?               A good turned evil friend of mine, kicked me out of the bed when it was 5 on the clock and I was like WTF. We reached the bus stop at 6. OK, forget about the time, we were in the Bus and we even had breakfast in the Bus. We were about to leave the boundaries of College of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, NUST (CEME, NUST).             There were 5 Buses, we were in a great number and it was our first trip from CEME, NUST to Mushkpuri top.  4 seniors came in our Bus, afterwards. The term Senior, is often terrifying to some, but we had a lot of fun with them.         When the journey started, our beloved Class Representative (CR) started making crazy faces and moves to entertain us, but we are g...

Who am I? What am I doing? Why am I alive?

Have you ever wondered, what if you were left alone in the world with all the luxuries, but no people? How does it feel?  I guess I will be happy at first, and after enjoying every possible luxurious event, I'll have no one to share it with, leaving me sad and depressed (it's the worst I can imagine).  Have you ever felt lonely in a crowd? I guess, always, when you don't know anyone truly.  Why does it happen? What do we need to do?  It happens because we aren't connected with ourselves, we need some self-assessment to overcome this loneliness.   When something is bothering you or making you feel worthless, and you seek advice, people will tell you to distract yourself and find the activities that you like, but we cannot do it if we are not connected with ourselves and it takes a lot of work, a lot of self-realization, it's a process of knowing ourselves, who we truly are.  We ought to connect with our emotions and try to control them, otherwise, they ...

Secularism everywhere

     The increased rate of secularism in Pakistan is deviating many from their right path. Pakistan is not a secular state, rather it has an Islamic ideology and is known as 'The Islamic Republic of Pakistan'. Even the so-called 'Muftis"(Recognized scholars), nowadays, are offering degrees in the favor of interest policies. When we have our holy book Quran and Allah says in the Quran:      “O ye who believe! fear Allah and give up what remains of your demand for usury, if ye are indeed believers. If ye do it not, take notice of war from Allah and His Messenger.” (al-Baqara 278-279)       It is clear from the verses mentioned above, that devouring usury (interest), is a war against Allah and his Messenger Muhammad (S.A.W.W). Now if anyone, even a Mufti, says that usury is 'Halal' ( Permissible) in Islam, he is truly misguided and misguiding others as well.  The rise of the secularism       People, even of th...
