A local taxi driver carrying a banner with the face of Chief Justice Chauhdry emblazoned on it, said ” This has been a movement for the small people and the big people ”
The Chief justice has emerged as a popular hero, a man seen as neither corrupt or despotic.
Chauhdry for President I say, and Imran Khan for Prime minister…..then we could have Justice and great cricket in Pakistan!!
