    Substantial majority of people of South Asian descent try to mechanically evaluate performance (success or failure) of movements, without having insights into the philosophical dynamics collateral to an event. A great movement yields result over the course of decades, if it’s a movement in its very sense. Short-sightedness, illiteracy and to some extent prevalence of nonideological inclinations, prevent them from diagnosis of prospective gigantic [permanent] changes that people-powered-movements CAN bring. Movement’s greatest success lies in situation of inequalities of everyday life on national agenda. According to Noam Chomsky, as mentioned in his book 'Occupy', if a movement has influenced public perception and communication and dominated media or successfully manipulated national agenda, then it must be termed as a ‘successful movement’, whether it has achieved proclaimed objectives in short-run or not, it is successful. Although, alteration of narrative on desired terms is a successful victory toward change in everything else. It took Mandela a lifetime of struggle, including 27 years of incarceration, to extricate South Africa from quagmire of apartheid. Similarly, have glance at Mohandas Karamchand's non-violent & non-cooperation movement of 1920. Did colonists spare us in immediate aftermath of that movement? No! So, can we label it as a failed movement? Obviously, NO! Because it, now, cannot be overlooked in the process of emancipation from British hegemony. That movement was successful. Similarly, if Imran's movements aren’t producing desired results immediately. We can't label them as "failed ones".

    Substantial majority of people of South Asian


    descent try to mechanically evaluate performance
    (success or failure) of movements, without having
    insights into the philosophical dynamics collateral to
    an event. A great movement yields result over the
    course of decades, if its a movement in its very
    sense. Short-sightedness, illiteracy and to some
    extent prevalence of nonideological inclinations,
    prevent them from diagnosis of prospective gigantic
    [permanent] changes that people-powered-
    movements CAN bring. Movements greatest success
    lies in situation of inequalities of everyday life on Pakistani opposition politician and
    national agenda. According to Noam Chomsky, as cricket legend, Imran Khan, speaks out
    against President Pervez Musharraf and
    mentioned in his book 'Occupy', if a movement has emergency rule at a press conference
    November 22, 2007 in Islamabad,
    influenced public perception and communication Pakistan. Khan was imprisoned by the
    and dominated media or successfully manipulated government under terrorism charges
    after trying to lead a student protest in
    national agenda, then it must be termed as a Lahore. (Photo by John Moore/Getty
    successful movement, whether it has achieved Images)
    proclaimed objectives in short-run or not, it is
    successful. Although, alteration of narrative on desired terms is a successful victory
    toward change in everything else.

    It took Mandela a lifetime of struggle, including 27 years of incarceration, to extricate


    South Africa from quagmire of apartheid.

    Similarly, have glance at Mohandas Karamchand's non-violent & non-cooperation


    movement of 1920. Did colonists spare us in immediate aftermath of that movement?
    No!
    So, can we label it as a failed movement? Obviously, NO! Because it, now, cannot be
    overlooked in the process of emancipation from British hegemony. That movement
    was successful. Similarly, if Imran's movements arent producing desired results
    immediately. We can't label them as "failed ones".
