The Saga of Dedication

To say that this year's election was the most unpredictable in the history of IBA may be an understatement. Candidates who had "Won" two months ago, did not even contest the real thing, those who boasted of strong "E-VOTES" lost it when it mattered the most, and in the midst of it all, a man,whom many considered an "intruder", a "dummy" and what not, won all the marvels. To say that only luck contributed to Mir Yahya's victory would never do justice to the amount of hard work, dedication and commitment he had put in. I was a part of his team from day one, and the one thing I was told was to play fair, work hard, and leave the rest to God, and it definitely worked. The element of luck played a crucial part, exactly when it mattered. The sudden arrival of different IBA policies, Mir Yahya's reputation, and consistent hard work made all this possible. Perhaps it will be futile to mention the intricacies and politics involved in all this, but all that matters is a competitive team has won, and that it has a very big responsibility on his shoulders.

This is, by no means, meant to be a eulogistic article, had this been my motto, I could have poured such articles in before the ballots, rather it is a brief & realistic appraisal of the events that took place in the last 3 months.
