    NA-151 seat of National Assembly is a seat of power for Gillani's emerging dynasty. In this system of dynasty disguised as democracy, corruption is not a disadvantage rather a virtue. Just like we have the well established dynasty of Bhutto and newly emerged dynasty of Shareef's, courtesy of Generals. Where politics "democracy" is synonymous to family rule, dynasty and fiefdom can't be distinguished.

    Which son is he? The drug lord or the haji robber?
