The great irony was that under the British, government of India, including the Pakistan area was quite good. However, after independence, India developed democratic government and is improving its governance to where it is almost good government. Pakistan, in marked contrast, had a democracy when Independence was attained and quickly fell into one dictatorship after another. And none of the governments came close to being good Government. Pakistan has a very corrupt and incompetent government—both military and civilian. However, at the time this quotation was made, the leaders of Pakistan were hopeful about and committed to good and democratic government. But neither ever happened.
