		In and of itself, the event was neither unexpected nor necessarily surprising (given the fate of earlier custodians of the prime minister's mantle in Pakistan).
		This may have been acceptable if those usurping the system in the name of a superior moral fibre had then set out to reform the system so that the essential purpose of their 'crusade' was fulfilled.

		When Nawaz Sharif emerged victorious in the general elections of November 1990, he had won a comfortable majority of seats in the National Assembly to form a strong government and was hopefully expected to complete his five year term in office, but providence willed otherwise.
		But only a few years ago when he was in the opposition, he and his followers did almost the same thing to humiliate ex-president Farooq Ahmed Khan Leghari with an added attraction of displaying banners and placards with anti-Leghari slogans all over the floor of the National Assembly.
		Consequently Ghulam Ishaq Khan said he was willing to step down and hold elections provided Nawaz Sharif simultaneously advised immediate dissolution of the National Assembly, resigned and made room for a neutral government to supervise the elections.
