Article summary

Abstract

Pakistan and India, emerging together in 1947, embarked on contrasting political paths. Kuldeep Nayyar’s expression “Never Too Far” symbolizes their complicated yet connected histories. Pakistan’s initial instability— losing its founder in 1948 and its first premier in 1951—opened doors for authoritarian rule. While India embraced a republic in 1950, Pakistan’s maiden polls happened only in 1970. Overthrows and governance turmoil ensued, with Nawaz Sharif holding office numerous times. The latest election on July 25, 2018, involved 105 million electors. Pakistan’s legislature, Majlis-e-Shura, originally located in Karachi, continues as the core of authority, where 172 seats determine national leadership.
