Abstract

Mian Manzoor Ahmed Watto's autobiography "Jurm-e-Seyasat" by former Chief Minister of Punjab, is a complete history of Pakistani politics. From family background to academic and political life, the above-mentioned autobiography has been described very eloquently. This autobiography tells the story of the ups and downs of Pakistani politics through the eyes of a patriot-turned-politician. The author goes on to describe his observations, experiences, situations and events in a systematic way in his narrative, which gives reasoned answers to many questions in the mind of the reader and opens various political knots of Pakistani political history. Undoubtedly, this is an effective and entertaining autobiography written by a shrewd politician.
